      In the context of anime, an ED is the song/visuals that play at the end of the episode. Similarly, the opening song/visuals are referred to as an OP.

        Thanks! I’ve read of OP more often, not ED as much, didn’t think it’d warrant shortening! 😅

          Your question actually got me curious, so I tried to search for where it came from and it is literally just short for EnDing. Seems a bit silly really. It does provide a nice symmetry with OP though.
