Not every anime manages to completely adapt its original work. However, some franchises are very close to accomplishing this feat without cutting out important parts of the story.

Between sequels, films, and season finales, three current anime titles are adapting the entire manga, or rather, are on track to deliver complete and faithful adaptations of the published material:
3. Bleach
The anime Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War brought back the final arc created by Tite Kubo years after the classic series ended. Furthermore, the new production raised the animation level and corrected pacing issues seen in the original anime. With Part 4 scheduled for July, the adaptation should finally conclude the entire manga definitively.
2. My Hero Academia: Vigilantes
The spin-off My Hero Academia: Vigilantes is also close to adapting all of its content. Even without official confirmation of a third season, the anime needs only a few arcs to conclude Koichi's journey. Studio Bones still maintains a strong connection with the franchise, especially after the main manga's conclusion in 2025.
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba
Among the most advanced cases is Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. The final arc will be divided into three films of the Infinite Castle saga. The first film has already premiered with enormous success and showed the final stretch of Koyoharu Gotouge with cinematic visuals produced by Ufotable.
While many anime series end up being interrupted or follow different paths from the manga, these series show that there are still adaptations capable of concluding their stories consistently.
