I've seen other anime where opening sequences are placed much later in the
episode, sometimes as far as halfway through. Rarely endings begin a bit
early, with a short (cliffhanger) scene following. In Minami-ke Okaeri endings
are placed a good third of the episode away from the actual end, acting like a
scene breaker. What's up with that? Why such odd timing?

What's with the timing of the OP and ED in Minami-ke?


I'd say the late opening is to grab attention and open the viewers mind as to
what's going to follow in the rest of the episode without showing an opening
which some people may immediately skip if it doesn't seem like their kind of
show.

As to the show having more after the ending, I believe its put there as scheme
or reward for sticking through the credits, and give people a bit more of the
show to finish off.
