I was just annoyed by how clearly poorly placed they are by comparison
I liked the naruto fillers since they gave me episodes about my fave characters and made it longer yay!!
Though I suppose some bleach filler probably seems more like a actually interesting part of the story line like that captain thing that flashback one and the beach one wasn't really filler though

When you look at just how well Hunter X Hunter's director executed the series, it almost feels like an injustice when NARUTO--which I would argue isn't as excellently pulled off--garners such acclaim in the dimension of adaptations of a manga. Though I do like the fact that Hunter X Hunter isn't quite as well recognised.
Not to say NARUTO is bad--far from it--but in terms of an anime adaptation, I am firmly in the mindset that Hunter just did it so much better, stylistically and otherwise.

Interesting, I'm going to try this Hunter X Hunter out. *adds to plan to watch list*

...No, Naruto does not deserve it. It deserve a 'discontinuation letter'. I read the chapters and keep thinking 'Why should I go through mediocre parts to get to the good parts?'. My answer... Why should it continue on forth?
There's nothing literally good about the anime or the manga. It's horrid and dire.

Or you could skip trash like Naruto and Bleach and watch something fun, like One Piece.

Yeah the pacing was a little off and the animation was rather dated. New Challenger was still solid though. Takamura vs Hawk was epic.Lupus said:

matter of opinion i'd say, taka v hawk in the manga was epic but in the anime the direction just made it look ******* ridiculous, the red eye effect just borders on making the fight comical and takamura shadow clones as well as hawks stomach exploding blood spew don't help much :?

just spoke to my mate. he reckons that pokemon and gundam also split anime fans down the middle as well! what do you guys think?

Well yeah, but Hajime no Ippo was never exactly about realism. (inb4 wannabe boxers saying it is)OMFGLOL said:

pokemon is one that is defentiy a 50/50 down the middle. most anime fans i have spoken to about it either love or hate it!

Lucky star as mentioned before, but there is also haruhi. Bear in mind Moe is more a stylistic quality of a show, rather than a genre in itself.devilrules666 said:
There are shows with little to no substance that can be classed as moe, such as Air, whose sole purpose is to offer viewers with something pretty, but not necessarily fanservice.
Hikaru no go is. It's simply unbelievable that they managed to make such a great anime out of something that is the asian equivalent of chess. "Oh noes! he's gonna move the knight! don't do it!!!"Spyro201 said:
Also, after wtching it, I started playing go myself and rewatched a few matches and surprisingly, the moves on the games actually made sense.
One other thing is that it's an Obata manga, same artist from Death Note, if that says anything about the series.
Don't buy though. Viz fooled the fans by releasing 95% of the series and not releasing the last one or two volumes of the DVD's, which acutally put me off buying it from them

isn't that the one where there is a ghost who was a great player and he guides the main character !

Mmm, slam dunk... I've never finished the series, as I was midway when I've moved to London and never picked that up again. I'll consider getting into it again as i clear a bit of my backlog.unellmay said:
I rather not have anything, if the quality doesn't match. Which IMO is the case of Naruto and Bleach. I prefer Bleach filler over Naruto, but recently the quality of the filller is not so good. The bount arc was enjoyable, as I didn't read the manga when I've seen it, I did actually beleive it was part of the manga storyline.Shakey said:
Hunter X Hunter, Berserk and Hajime no Ippo are samples of great anime that actually stopped when they caught up with the manga.
Ditto 1 - Hunter X Hunter is another great surprise in shounen. It have very litte in terms of fights, but it has an awesome story to compensate.Uppa said:
Ditto 2 - even the fillers are faithfull to the spirit of the original manga. It's very funny and have some of the greatests fight scenes ever in anime.Maxon said:
