Speaking of Bleach, I do wonder if we'll ever see any of today's Shonen titles go on to reach the length of Bleach/Naruto.
I doubt it but you never know as Bleach was only intended to go on for 5 years maximum an its now been going on for like 13 years. I think it depends of popularity. Toriko and Fairy Tail will probably reach near enough the same amount of episodes. But any really recent I can't see happening as they have started to do that 25 episode season thing which is good as you won't get no filler but the story takes alot longer to come out anime wise.
 
Forgot to post, Bleach Movie 2, 3 & 4 all watched today.

I am officially finished with Bleach anime and movie wise. Not sure what I will watch next but have a few decent things on my backlog.

Magi feels like it could go quite far. Or maybe at a push (just going on manga in Shonen Jump right now), World Trigger or Seraph of the End.
 
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders (Japanese Dub) - Episode 17

ORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORA
 
From the New World Episode 5.

I've actually cancelled my Blu-Ray pre-orders for this show now. I actually enjoyed the rock episode very much but it's gotten too "oddball" for me. I love me some sci-fi but it's a tad off the rails for me. Plus thesudden sex in the nestand the horrible animation in this episode completely ruined it for me.

I may end up finishing it on Crunchyroll eventually, but the show has left a bad taste in my mouth. With the money i saved, I may pick up the Niseomonogatari Blu-Rays.

Gintama (Japanese Dub) - Episode 46

So far my favourite episodes are 28, 34/35, 38, 41 (Even though it's Part 2 of the arc I found it to be the funniest of the three [40-42]), 44 & 46.

28 - Virgos will die today!
34/35 - Four eyes dates a Cat Girl / Matsudaira goes Golgo on his daughter's date
38 - Kabukicho Snow Festival
41 -
Parasite infects Space Plane [Aliens vs Yakuza Part 2]
44 - SAVE ELIZABETH!
46 - Ane vs Otsu

Nise is worth picking up. Even if only to see *that* toothbrush episode.

I shudder to think what that even means.

My adventures with the UK legal streaming 'experience' over the last three days.

Nobunaga Concerto ep 2

This delaycast aired a day later than usual but Crunchyroll put a warning up on their website with an ETA well before it was due to appear, so it wasn't too much of a problem. The horrid animation might put people off but this is one of the most fun titles this season! Definitely need to buy the manga.

Bakumatsu Rock eps 3+

Umm...where are the episodes?

Terror in Resonance ep 3

Wow, it came out really promptly - which would have been normal if we could watch it on Crunchyroll. Still, good episode even if it was more cerebral and less spectacular than the first two. Top quality show.

Tokyo Ghoul ep 4

I lied. I haven't watched this yet as it's Tokyo Ghoul's turn to be 'Wakanimed' and delayed this week >_<

Seriously, Wakanim have been getting so many website hits from me this season with their vague delays. Their ad views must be doing well; perhaps they actually benefit financially by being inconsistently slow? There might be a sweet spot. I think I'm on to something.

Sorry. I am frustrated (and don't even get me started on the 'simulcast' licenses which Animax is just going to sit on until the season is about to end).

Literally "today's" titles, who knows. Future titles, I'd be surprised if some don't going from the amount of effort that has been put into making sure the current big three have gone on as long as they have.
 
Considering Stealth Symphony got binned after only about 20 chapters, it's interesting to see what it takes for a title to get the support to run for a decent length of time.
 
Jump in particular loves canning good series if they're super low in the rankings for any length of time (I'm looking at you, Oumagadoki Doubutsuen), I wouldn't worry about any individual decision. ^^;
