I don't have a problem with people watching and liking really long series.

I have a problem with people thinking they're quality stories though. and I HATE seeing people list them anywhere in a top 10 list.

at some point, it just seems like people would sit up and realize that the episode they're watching now is structurally the same as the one they were watching that same calendar day seven years ago.

for example: yes, I'm a transformers fanatic, but if you wanted me to write down a list of my favorite 50 animated series, not one transformers title would make the list.

A pretty good question, Valk. Why continue watching shows that go on forever? Why the hell did I continue watching Dragon Ball Z, after the Frieza Saga, because it only got worse? Why didn't I give up on Inuyasha sooner? Why the **** am I still watching Bleach? Why am I wasting my time watching that silly mech anime Leluch or whatever it is called on Adult Swim? Jesus Christ, WHY? I don't know, please give me some time to cry over the time I have wasted on this crap. Ugh!


Glad you found it that way. Cause I didn't and I wasn't happy. Not because I didn't expect it, but because I thought it would go down a little differently. In a way that frustrated me less.

Edit: SPOILERS... lol

Hmm, I thought it was obvious how Light was going to die in the end... It was my guess from episode 3 until the very end...

Truthfully just about everything in Death Note was pretty Predictable. In general terms...

We have spoiler tags, ya know?

Like this. And it wasn't his death that got me it was the events leading up to it. I was hoping Near would die.

EDIT: Nevermind, you edited your post.

My biggest problem with naruto isnt it's writing or it's length, but rather the fight scenes everyone praises and says are the reason they watch the show.

nearly all of the fight scenes in naruto steal their choreography (right down to the camera angles) from other shows and movies. one being the cowboy bebop movie. it has also been observed stealing from jackie chan movies.

Yeah I knew about the spoiler tags but I just wanted to quickly edit it so if someone hadn't watched all of Death Note it wouldn't ruin anything... If you look I edited my post the same minute you made your post.

Naruto, Yu Yu Hakusho and Dragonball Z are the same ****ing things.

Re: Anime/manga

FMA...just didn't stick. It's nice seeing Ed and Al run around and using "Alchemy" but, MEEEEEHHH.

Yu Yu Hakusho became incredibly boring after the Dark Tournament.

I won't comment on Naruto.

DragonBallz was alright...GT was a huge "meh"

I also heard it sort of lost steam.

Re: Anime/manga

Wait, Death Note? Predictable?

Why do I suddenly feel so simpleminded?

Because someone just messed with our heads. I say we paddle 'em.
