i prefer short animes like FMA, inuyasha, and some moeblob animes
i semi keep up with bleach. its the first one i ever watched i caught up to japan and since then i watch an ep every once in awhile. they deviated so much with filler i got irritated i dont mind slice of life though its a good mellow feeling other then that i like drama romance. action is ok but it depends. im huge on story line i dont like the fighting for no particular reason thats just boring.

Here is the interview: http://www.sankakucomplex.com/2010/1...east-10-years/

Quote:
Bleach’s author Tite Kubo is apparently set on keeping Bleach going for at least another 10 years, remarking that it is only halfway through.

Kubo’s remarks were reported by 2ch-frequenting attendees of the recently held Jump Festa, where he took the stage to talk about his creation:

“It’s about halfway through the story at the moment.

[...]

At the very least, I’ll be doing it for another 10 years.”

Another version has him being asked “So will you be keeping it going for the next 30 years?” to which he responds “I think I’d like to make it a bit shorter than that,” with the other speaker quipping that “It should be continuing for at least another 10 years!”

Both accounts agree on him saying he is about half done however, which for a 10-year-old title would rather suggest another 10 years to go.

I will admit I didn't expect it to be better than the original like so many claimed, but this is not acceptable. The emotion and visceral nature of it is gone. Many of the characters have been turned into shallow cartoonish forms of themselves (I have been trying my best to watch it like I never saw the original, but it is hard). The pacing is terrible. There are not several verbal inconsistence in dubbed and subbed version. It seems to have a bad case of Bones syndrome as quality of the art will random turn to crap for no reason.

At this point I don't see the light at the end of the tunnel. Someone please tell me this crap gets better at some point. Or should I just drop it now and save myself the time?

yes, the first 10 eps or so are almost 1:1 rehashes of the original. it gets MUCH better once it gets into the new material.



as for bleach and a year of filler, its probably more than that.

I called the naruto (pre-shippuden) filler the 'year of hell'

I'm in the same boat as you. Watched the first 10, and haven't been able to bring myself to finish. I like the first one better so far. I still haven't seen what everyone was raving about.

And it's not a case of me just knowing the overall plot in the beginning, because I still get into the original almost right away. The characters were much better. I think it's overrated. I'm one of the first to tell a person to stick it out a few episodes before making a decision, but if an anime can't hook me in 10, that's just poor writing.

It was much better Naruto. It's not half-animal, it's half demon, btw.

Inuyasha is probably the only really long anime I enjoyed most of the time. The filler eps weren't as retarded as most anime filler eps are.

I disagree. Maybe in story line, but not in execution. I can still watch the first 10 eps of the original, and it's an enjoyable experience. I can't say the same for Brotherhood. The characters aren't written or acted as well or something.
