naruto is really a bad manga and anime... its dropped in ratings should show that. It used to be an 8 plus show rating, now its like 5. To many fillers, and it just wont end. Even Bleach has an ending, a bad one, but it still ends and there isnt as many fillers and most of them are horrid or extremely pointless like naruto's. I do watch the Naruto anime, but when its out of filler mode, which it has another like month or two of fillers thats just made up back story which never happened and make little sense in Shuppoden at all. >.>


Who cares about ratings (where are they anyway)? It's bad in your opinion? Still plenty of people who watch and like it. About the fillers, yes they're bad and simple solution to that, DON'T watch them.  The main storyline itself is good, the more you get into it, the more is revealed. It's how story progression works, so what if it takes a while? Is that such a bad thing?

I get not liking a manga/anime for personal reasons but this whole Naruto is bad by anime/manga puritans really annoys me. I can't take this thread seriously when people say Naruto is bad *insert silly reasons* but love series for stupid boobies that defy laws of gravity and fanservices. That's just sad.

Btw, Bleach didn't end. Manga is still going.

Naruto at 5.4% with an average of 3.2% for the year.

 

And Bleach manga ended. The author stated that Aizen's defeat and Ichigo lossing all his powers defeating him was the end.

But i read the new chapters after that lol


how do you continue a story about super powers when the main character was supposed to lose all of his? is this DBGT or something?

You know, I almost feel sympathy when manga nerds go on and on about how great manga is and jerks like me love to tell them they're wrong and how bad it is.  They tell me to go to Hell, I'm wrong, and that I have no right being here because it's their opinion.  Blah blah blah.

And then I see threads like this...where you crap on people that like Naruto.  Hooray for hypocrism!

Me I perfer the Naruto filler.

I like pretty much everything in Naruto, except Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke.

Hence why I don't watch it outside if it's on and nothing else is on.  You base a show around all of the squads and rotate every few episodes and i'd watch that regularly.  Like how they did Justice League Unlimited.



Any Berserk fans?

Of course. Or at least, it's wonderful up to the queen of elves arc (not sure of the original tankobon or chapter number), then it started plodding along... I'm hopeful it will return to greatness, though.

New batch of reviews.

Deadman Wonderland

It's kinda like Gantz. It's gory, supernatural and it involves a prison like system that pits the inmates against each other or against new experiments so that they can level up on a point system, which allows them to buy new stuff. It involves a kid who get's framed for the murder of his classmates and sent to a brutal prison that uses it's inmates as gladiators in a live TV show, this kid wants to take revenge on the real killer, but he also needs to survive in the harsh prison environment. He finds out he has powers and his forced down into an experimental area in the prison, which puts him into fights against other powerful inmates.

I like manga that are open with their brutality, mainly because it's something rarely seen in any other form of media and Deadman handles that brutality really well. The premise and characters are all really interesting, everyone in the prison is kind of insane and they've all done really bad things in their pasts, which only makes you more interested. If you like manga like Gantz, then I highly recommend Deadman Wonderland. 8/10.

 

Beezlebub

Beezlebub follows a very standard manga path, which means it falls into a 'done that, been there' format that a lot of highschool orientated titles do. It acknowledges it's clichés though and instead offers you cool characters and an adventure into delinquent highscool badassery. The twist in this manga that differentiates from others, is that the lead character has a demon baby thrust upon him and the baby gives him demonic powers, it also doesn't help that the lead is a delinquent and so the story goes through a bunch of crazy scenarios that strengthens their relationship and introduces new characters into the mix. 

If you've enjoyed the supernatural highscool shounens like Yu Yu Hakusho, History's Strongest Disciple and (maybe?) Bleach. Then I'm sure you'll enjoy Beezlebub. It gets a solid 7/10.

 

Aki Sora

Umm. It's borderline hentai that involves a young kid that falls in love with his older sister and then goes on to be extremely confused about his circumstances throughout the series. He also get's into a bunch of other relationships with all these other girls that take advantage of his boyish nature, he's raped by his twin sister and he's forced to dress up like a girl every once in a while. I don't really care about all the sexual stuff and the plot is pretty much non-existent. It's basically about a boy who's fallen into these weird sexual circumstances and his urges overcome his better sense, it doesn't have any sort of direction and it's just filled with random blow jobs. I don't recommend Aki Sora, but I do understand people enjoy these kind of Erotic fantasy mangas and I'll at least say that the dialogue isn't rubbish, the drawings are decent and it has some pretty goofy moments in it, though it did make me feel awkward more than once. 4/10.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

Moetan. Funny,pointless, yet enjoyable.

 

GIrls Bravo. Funny, perverted. Watch it. Oh and also kinda pointless up until the end (The last few episodes have a plot though).

 

Penguin Musume. Pretty funny, Episodes are like 10 to 5 minutes long, and also pointless plot.
