Y, Inuyasha's 'ten hours of nothing' aren't diffrent than Naruto's bunshin chases and filler arcs, or the aweful hokage/orochimaru endurance battle (Hokage: "bwhhha! the sword is going through my inner organs! i must pull his soul out!" Orochimaru: "ahh! my soul is being taken away, I must move my finger to call in my light saber!"). does it make Naruto a bad anime? (yes).
actually, after reading the Inuyasha manga after what happened in the anime, I'm looking forward to the next chapter much more than i'm looking forward to the next chapter of Naruto, One piece or Bleach.

speaking of one piece, what arc was the Arabasta arc? i'm horrible with names, and the scans quality wasn't too good either when i read it...
