3 arcs would be 40 chapters. Around 3 arcs, you will find it to be a meh series(2.5-3.0/5 series) but you will recognise its potential. Later on, this potential surpasses expectations and the series turn good.How many chapters do i have to read to catch up to those 2 arcs though, that's the question.
Some are the characters and some are the animations that disturbs me .
I've always thought they were fairly popular, at least in the United States. Of course not on the level of something like one piece, but certainly well known.I thought Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo weren't that popular? Not compared to series like One Piece, KnB, and shit.
FT, OP, Bleach, Guren Lagan and Code Geass(for me), those animes have really boring and misleading first episodes so i kinda understand you. For example:OP.
Fairy Tail.
Bleach (this one actually seemed cool, but eh I just wasn't into it)
Guren Lagan.
Code Geass( Well this one was spoiled for me, so after that it wasn't te same)
HxH
Nope. One Piece's manga's art has greatly improved. At times, it can be downright gorgeous. The anime went from okay to good to garbage though.For some reason i don't get into a popular manga without watching the anime first to catch up in a sorta fast pace with the manga, one piece animation is not appealing to me at all. Do not about the manga but i heard it's the same thing as the anime.
What about HxH? I really don't get how people can't like HxH when Naruto used HxH as a template to kick start the series.HxH, Code Geass, and finally Sword Art Online. I strongly dislike SoA because of the wasted potential for a great action and longer running show it could have been, for an example, the first episode where it displayed it as a show of action and thriller and I was honestly getting really into the show the first like 4 episodes and thought that red haired guy would play the part as his bffl or something but it turned into a love story and skipped a lot and was harder for me to follow! My opinion though, no disrespect to anyone who likes the show!
