This is his content. I have also seen their ending parts. As the original poster said, they are generally relatively long. . I think they did this partly because the cast and crew deserved it for their hard work, and partly to show respect for them and the sponsors. Although the endings are usually just black and white text, the music they use is very good, just listen to the music.
