so those are the only anime's i am currently watching... and every single freakin one is on fillers rite now... *sigh...

any recommendations to new animes?

based on my interest in the above three... i really enjoy fantasy animes.. primarily based on story plot with alittle comedy and action

too dramatic.. and its ehh.. too girly and its.. ehh...

hope that narrows it down...

help?

well, i have enjoyed some one piece filler from time to time but it can get really really bad too(like the goat arc and rainbow mist arc). bleach filler has always bored me and naruto's has probably been the worst except that one episode where they try to unmask kakashi(actually only the first half of that episode was good too). oddly enough, i don't skip one piece filler though...probably cuz it's my favorite series out of them. then again, the arcs don't seem to go anywhere near as long as naruto and probably bleach.

anyway, there's tons of stuff out there so you don't have to waste your time with fillers. try noein, black lagoon, ergo proxy, mushishi, eureka seven, blood+, higurashi no naku koro ni, monster, etc.

I've enjoyed both one piece and bleach fillers, but I'd have to go with one piece. o.m.g. naruto fillers were the reason why I stopped watching it. ><

LOL... i still watch every single episode.. but yea~ one piece's fillers aren't too bad, they're actually pretty entertaining

and i'll try out some of the anime Take Five recommended thanx

[knockblock]

I don't think we're allowed to ask for recommendations because there's a thread for it on the top page of the forums where you can do it there. Anyway I'll contribute.

One Piece and Bleach have their boring parts of fillers but not special either. In One Piece I would just want to vomit because there wasn't anything I got out of a certain filler episode. Then in Bleach there were scenes that were forgettable and some things that are just blah. Naruto fillers however is madness, a lot of episodes were plain boring. Watching the filler archs and having to put up with a season of filler episodes is carnage, like having to keep swatting mesquito after mesquito during a summer picnic.

My problem with them is that the fillers for those animes aren't that well spaced out to make the anime not catch up to the manga.

Can we say others besides those three?

^i'm pretty sure prince of tennis has filler. i usually find it entertaining though. it's probably the better filler i've seen yet.

When trying not to compare the anime to its manga counterparts, I would have to say that One Piece has much better fillers than Bleach or Naruto does. At least with One Piece, you get interesting episodes still filled with the goodness its characters bring to the screen. Naruto has gotten so dull for me that I've stopped watching. If I were unaware of what's happening in the manga and a dedicated fan to the anime, I would be wondering not only why the quality in animation dropped, but what happened to the long, consistent plotline that was the first hundred or so episodes. Bleach is another thing that has kind of become a bit too over the top. The way it throws all of the characters into this whole Bounto mix has kind of strayed it too far away from any surprises that will be coming if the anime ever decides to follow the manga again. Not only that, but the way Aizen disappears from the storyline is similar to how Orochimaru and Sasuke just vanished. If the villains are so much of a threat, why is it that they are just fooling around or dealing with such minor problems? It's painful to see that these series, as good as they WERE, are trailing down the exact same path as Rurouni Kenshin did nearly ten years ago.

As for Prince of Tennis, that whole Jr. Goodwill Games thing was complete filler. I must say that I really didn't like the matches at all. But, the episodes leading to the finale were pretty amusing. I believe that good fillers all fall back on how good the characters are and how they've been developed.

i think we can all agree naruto sucks.. really bad... with their fillers.. especially cuz its just one after another.. and they're just made HORRIBLY!

umm... as for the comment about the "recommendations?"...
i tried to search through themm.. trying to get a good input on what i should dl.. but WOW, there are SOOO many!!

i was hoping i could get a nice FEW recommendations this way.. hope its not against the rules :/

[XxIllicitxX]

I haven't started watching One Piece yet (funds go to my dollfie atm) so I can only compare between Bleach and Naruto, and I have to agree with everyone else that Naruto fillers suck the most. I was also a little late to Naruto and haven't read the manga either, so I find that although I enjoy Naruto, it has a lot of plot holes and far too many fillers. Bleach fillers aren't that great but Naruto's are incomparably bad.

[aymei]

naruto's fillers aren't even worth watching. =.=

bleach fillers are much better tho.

[dare2move]

prince of tennis fillers are freaking hilarious. you should try it. =D

[Jangoon]

im only watching 1 piece and naruto.. and i got to say 1piece.. cuz one piece feels like the filler is a part of the story!

[sanoobie]

one piece filler atm is really enjoyable.. how could u say such thing geneyoonit!! lol but for naruto and bleach.. i just stop watchin them long time ago .. one piece is just tooo overwhelming =p

and for this one piece filler currently on.. eh.. 195 - 206? i think somewhere around there to lazy to check .. i enjoyed every episode of it! ahh luffy rox sooo much at 273 =p

[Blu_Velvet_Sea]

[heart-beat]

Fillers are anime episodes that arent part of the original manga and have nothing to do with the main storyline. They're usually made when the anime series storyline is catching up to manga's, so they add fillers so the manga creators get more time to get ahead of the anime storyline. Fillers are pretty unpopular among Otakus, but some "fans" don't even know what fillers are since they either don't read the manga of some anime series or they're not hardcore fans.

[geneyoonit]

lol im surprised there's alot of bleach filler fans yea~ they got hilarious ones, but one piece's is like... pretty much part of the story..

lol sanoobie... hardcore one piece fan >.<

and prince of tennis? i have actually tried that.. but i soon lost my interest >.<

i need those animes that are like.. CRAZY LOL

[d00lie]

i say one piece. it's not really fillers either. it's like somewhat blended with the story itself. and also because i don't watch bleach.

and naruto?

i want that stupid filler to end like now! it's so frustrating to watch one stupid episode after another.

continue with the stupid storyline already!

i heard it was going to end really soon. (in the 200s) but i just heard that it is a fake?! T.T

pretty soon, i'm going to be learning japanese to read the mangas instead.

[geneyoonit]

i ono.. but gahh naruto fillers ARE pretty insane... its like... a story line for one episode...lol... and they did that for almost every episode... *sigh... i think by the time they're done, i'll be raising a family

[blissfully_unaware13x]

out of the three i only really watch naruto ^^;; but the fillers are mad hilarious so of course i voted for it ^^
