366 fucking episodes?

Damn...

:Shrugs:

I personally like Bleach, it ain't the best thing ever but I like it over Naruto, that show broke me at the start. Bleach was enjoyable at times even if Ichigo kept getting powers up the wazoo each and every time.

But 366 fucking episodes?

Damn

Time to see how many episodes of other shows there is.

Edit: Btw, he was 15?

Damn, at the start he was 15, I am 5 years older than that asshole.

I thought Psycho Pass season two was pretty disappointing myself, especially compared to the first season. UBW was my personal highlight. Though i'm a bit biased on that.

As for Aldnoah "Don't worry Urobuchi is taking the reins, it'll be alright."
-Beach episode time
-Princess alive, giving speech
-Inaho now has super cybernetic eye
-ADLNOAH KISS lolwut
-Turns out princess is fake, ayy lmao she's in stasis
-Saazbaum is also alive cause whynot

Wtf are they even doing with this show anymore

I liked the first season cause everyone died. . . This is not OK.
Urobutcher, kill them all and make the show about Marito please.

Unfortunately, most of bleach is filler. I agree though, it was enjoyable.

In my humble opinion, I feel like invincible deathgod samurais are better then ninjas and pirates.

Yeah, the sheer mass of material (and gratuitous amounts of filler) is a big part of why I could never get into Bleach, One Piece, or Naruto. (Or Inu-Yasha, while we're at it.) Most of the stuff I watch is in the 26-52 episode range, with a handful of series that go up to about 100 episodes. Also a big part of why I prefer DBZ Kai over the original DBZ format, since Kai chops out all the goddamn filler, bringing the first three arcs of the series down from like, 200 episodes to a more manageable 70-100ish.

I mean, I get why long-running series need to use filler to pad things out- they catch up to the original manga and then they either need to stall for time for the manga to get ahead again (Dragonball or Fairy Tail for example,) or they have to just go "Fuck it, we're ending the anime now!" (Shaman King and Blue Exorcist for example,) OR they just put the show on hiatus until the manga has caught back up (Fairy Tail also did this.) The first option drags arcs out and introduces filler arcs of often inconsistent quality, the second puts the anime ending massively off-target from the manga and can wreck an otherwise solid series, and the third in theory risks losing the audience before the series comes back.

Now I'm not going near it anymore.

So despite the fact that you loved the first episode, some stranger on the internet was able to make you completly give it up because they made some throwaway comparison to a show you dislike?

*slowclaps*

First class logic right there, 10/10, would use irl :palm:

I wouldn't call them strangers. We've been chatting since 2011. But yes, they made me realize it's too similar in style to Kill La Krap. So I dropped it like a bad habit.

I honestly don't mind filler, it just depends on if a specific filler is bad or not.

So you found a show you like to be similar to a show you dislike so you decided to dislike the show you like?

Rather interesting, it's a different story from the manga, but the mangaka is the head writer, so it's still canon.

I wasn't sure if I liked the show as a whole, but the final ep sold me. It was pretty cool, and I think I'll like the rest of it.

The manga's better, a lot better. But since the mangaka is the head writer of pt.2, I'm interested to see how he'll twist the world of the show.(BTW, It hits the anime only point at the end of Keneki vs Ayato)
