Anime Wishlist:

There are 36 anime in my great anime rankings that have a solid start, who are sorely lacking a proper ending, and whose source material has already ended, giving the shows a perfect opportunity for a solid  ending, whenever they see fit to continue their already halfway finished series.  The fact that studios haven't acted upon these golden opportunities is an inexcusable tragedy.  The series that qualify for this infamy are listed in the order of their severity.

Wanting an anime adaption can be about two different things, though.  In one case, it's just because the music, voice acting, animation and color would be preferable to the previous source.  But as a burning secondary issue, it's because anime is more likely to be translated than any other source material.  For shows with untranslated source material, the wish to have an anime doubles as a wish to finally have the product translated and be able to enjoy it in any way whatsoever.  As a result, the two categories must be broken down into two groups, the series I'd like to see animated most despite already being translated in other ways due to the added value nature of anime, and the series I'd like to see animated mostly just because I want a translation of the subject material to finally be forthcoming and there doesn't seem to be any other way than this wish being granted for such an event to happen.  The first group will be the anime for animation's sake, as the * next to the product means the source material is already fully available translated in non-anime form, and the second group will be for the translation's sake, as the lack of a * shows there's still no English version whatsoever of the product available anyone could enjoy: 

1.  Da Capo III (main game) *

2.  Juuou Mujin no Fafnir *
3.  Haruhi Suzumiya *
4.  Ranma 1/2 *
5.  Nanoha Vivid *

There are other groups of inexcusable tragedies, though.  One group is the shows that wandered off into filler (or super-abridged versions of the content) instead of reaching their proper endings, where you need to not only provide the ending for the show, but also cut out the filler/abridged-content that already infests the show like a malignant disease in order to correct the horribly skewed timeline.

1.  Akame ga Kill! (starting from ep 19 till ending) * 
2.  Claymore (starting from the war in the north) * 

3.  Sora no Otoshimono (starting from the end of Forte) *
4.  Soul Eater (starting from the death of that coffee loving guy) *

1.  Major (starting from the end of the tv series)

Some series are so screwed up by filler that, even though they've been animated before, require a complete and total remake which this time follows the source faithfully in order to be salvaged.  As a bonus, this remake should also extend to the duration of the newest released material, as opposed to wherever they ended previously in their fillericious snarls, which in these cases means all the way to the proper ending of the source material:

1.  Negima/UQ Holder *
2.  Freezing *
3.  I"s *

4.  Rosario Vampire *

5.  12 Kingdoms *

1.  Rewrite
2.  Tales of Eternia

Some series don't need a complete and total remake, they just need some things added in and/or some things subtracted out to reach their full potential by better matching their source:

1.  Hayate no Gotoku *
2.  The World God Only Knows *
3.  Full Metal Panic! *
4.  Berserk *

5.  Amagi Brilliant Park *
6.  No Game No Life *

7.  To Love ru *

1.  Zettai Karen Children 

Some series haven't even been animated yet despite the amazing quality of the source: 

1.  Akame ga Kill! Zero *
2.  Shinohayu: Dawn of Age *
3.  Tales of Xillia *
4.  Tales of Graces *

5.  Aiyoku no Eustia *

6.  Majikoi S/A *

7.  Toki *
8.  Freezing Zero/Pair Love Stories/First Chronicle *

9.  Cyanotype Daydream *
10.  Osananajimi wa Daitouryou *
11.  Hinowa ga Yuku! *

12.  Angel Beats (Knocking on Heaven's Door prequel) *
13.  Senren * Banka *

14.  Mao *
15.  Junai Sensation *
16.  Harmonia *
17.  Nanoha Force *
18.  Parchment and Wolf *

19.  Hoshizora no Memoria *

20.  Goblin Slayer Year 1 *

21.  Dead Rock *

1.  Da Capo I, II and III Untold Routes/Spinoffs
2.  Kono Oozora ni, Tsubasa wo Hirogete

3.  Isekai Kenkokuki 

Some series are anime original but inexplicably lack endings all the same:

1.  Koutetsujou no Kabaneri *

2.  World of Witches *

In addition, there's a lot of series that technically aren't over yet, but do have so much material that whole additional story arcs could be animated, in which case the series would be much better than it currently is.  When a source has tons of material left to cover and the anime studio refuses to move, that's cause for concern, even if technically they could be waiting for the ending.  (Odds are they aren't, they're just refusing to animate the show.)

1.  Index/Railgun *

2.  Akatsuki no Yona *

3.  Saki *

4.  Hai to Gensou no Grimgar *

5.  Vinland Saga *

6.  Shadows House *

7.  Seikai no Senki *
8.  Rokka no Yuusha *

9.  Dragon Ball Super *

10.  Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun *

11.  Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear *
12.  Hyouka *
