Hmm, it seems like I've found another good anime.. Hunter X Hunter; which is a bit old-school, but this is getting pretty good (ep 17) and addicting. I'd rather watch this than some new-school crap anime about high school drama..

i tried but gave up.
too impatient to wait with like 1 -2 seeders several months back.

fate stay night was pretty good.
school rumble is always a good bet. 2nd season is ending.

Bleach sucks until they get off the filler arc. Hell even the manga is starting to get redundant.

Hunter X Hunter is a great series, I loved every episode. I picked up a new series called Akagi, it's about this guy whose really good at Majong (lol). Other than that, I'm waiting for Naruto and Bleach to stop with all this filler. Bleh. I also thought School Rumble was really good, as well as Yakitate! Japan!

Yea, the Bleach filler is pretty bad.
Thank god that I think it looks like it's ending soon.

Hunter X Hunter is great! but the final ending... You will know what I meant when you're done with it. I'm talking about the final ending of Hunter X Hunter OVA Greed Island. You still have a long way to go if you're on eposide 17 right now. eh

If a manga is popular enough, they will make an anime version of it. That means the anime follows the story of the manga. If the story of the anime catches up to the current arc of the manga, it isn't good.

So animes make a bunch of random crappyass episodes called "fillers" to give room for the manga to further develop the storyline.

Naruto is done with filler... i think 201 is the last one for awhile.
Yakitate was good for like the first 20 episodes then reactions just got really retarded and old.

see Prince of Tennis, Initial D, Full Metal Panic, Full Metal Alchemist if you have not already

Bad fillers are the main reason I watch single-season animes. Faster-paced, usually, and it's easier to follow the storyline.

Bleach is really good and then falters. Then it picks back up and falters again. It it at an interesting point now, but will hit some crappy fillers later.
Naruto was airing so many friggin filleres that I got sick of it and stopped watching the anime. Came back again and watched it at 2x+ speeds. It is not worth it to watch the insanely stupid Naruto fillers.
HunterXHunter is a really good anime, but it ends horribly. They should've made a HunterXHunter2 atleast...
Again, too many good anime out there! :D

the story of hxh hasn't ended, there's more after the greed island stuff. but the manga has been on hold for over a year. if it eventually starts up again, i'm sure there will be more oav's made.
