Back in the day with Mobile suit gundam, they couldve ended it with the original and it would have been just as classic, idk if Zeta did it justice really... I know ZZ didn't. At lest it ended well the Chars counter attack.
The problem isn't keeping it interesting, as it would have been at the very least pretty interesting if they kept to a proper manga chapters to anime episodes ratio and stopped messing around with all the bullcrap they flood the episodes with and uncalled for filler arcs.
The problem is that they hit a certain amount of popularity and they seem to be trying to squeeze as much money out of it as they possibly can before it all goes tits up...
Respect the joindate, not the postcount ;P
You don't know just how right you are
I remember when they used to either follow the manga completely or add substancial content to this anime that was actually very good ( like the kakashi vs. sakura and naruto fight ) but lately every time they try to squeeze a couple of minutes off you can always tel, when that shit isn't cannon because of its horrible quality.
The series definitely had more substance in its early episodes. Everything was meaningful and sometimes even powerful in the way it relates to the average person. (i'm talking pre-filler of course)
It's almost like whoever writes the filler is afraid to trample on future manga plot possibilities, so they purposefully stay away from anything with substance to it.
Much like trying to feed more people by adding water to the stew, it ruins the flavor.
Is something wrong with DB's website?
yeah, isn't there supposed to be a new hour long episode out already?
I think the quality difference between naruto/bleach compare to One Piece anime stem from the way the mangaka tell their story more than anything else.
Both Kishi and Kubo have a horrible habit of wasting a lot of pages. You can find evidence of this by reading the earlier chapters of bleach and naruto then compare them to their anime counterpart. What you will often see is that a lot of good naruto and bleach episodes usually consist of 3-4 chapters of content, granted kubo is the worse of the two since this fact become blatantly obvious during the soul society arc. This is also pretty obvious in the earlier episodes of shippuuden since they were dislike by many peoples because the anime studio was trying to limit them to 1-2 chapters per episode.
Oda on the other hand seems to be able to keep his chapters consistent in term of both quality and quantity. Many of the recent One Piece episodes start with a 5 minutes intro and limit themselves to 1 or 2 chapters max, yet they still somehow manages to be interesting and entertaining judging from the responses of the One Piece viewers.
Something is indeed wrong with DB's site.
I tought the new ep was supposed to be out yesterday atleast but alas i was wrong.. and DB is usually so proud of the fact that their releases are so consistant and almost never miss/delay it..something foul must be afoot!
Have you read their trolls?
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
I disagree, a good anime episode doesn't have to follow the manga exactly and use like 4 chapters all at once, that will just make room for fucking annoying filler arcs.
What they need to do is add interesting new material to each and every one of the episodes. It doesn't have to be anything too long or meaningful, just the adding of humorous scenes every now and then usually gets the job done and they can even add some side battles every now and then; but " the ramen shop using that other dish", the "sakura soldier pills and emo crying" , etc. side arcs are just bullshit additions to the anime, that ultimately manage to ruin the whole experience.
What troll? You can't go to the dattebayo site to read it
Hakke Rokujūyon Shō!
Exactly, if u cant even go to their site and read the troll how does one know its an actual troll or for real?
Plus they usually (or never?) purposely DELAY releases because of their trolling antics, or have i missed something?
Also, thanks for neg-repping me whoever did it, i love you too
According to one of their more recent trolls, they delayed it because they were pissed off about something....you know DB...and them making up shit...
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Maybe because they're still pissed people still put their work on youtube
Wouldn't surprise me, if that's the reason
Hakke Rokujūyon Shō!
Buaa Buaa you keep uploading our subs *sniff*
Take the compliment for what it is you whining bitches, the reason they upload your subs is because yours are the best in the internet today.
The last message encoded in their release said:
"Uploading our stuff is like putting lipstick on a pig"
I had to laugh for a second that that one.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
The Ramen shop scene was one of the few times I've laughed at the humor when watching Naruto. The Sakura stuff really isn't bad, it takes no time and is there to show they care.
Overall I think you're too nostalgic about what you read in the Manga.
Whats that assumption based on Jessper. I'm with Archangel on this one, just typing something like that gives me the chills or maybe its just the fall weather. Anyway I think the ramen shop scene in the manga was much better if only because I saw it there first.
Basically it went like this, They went to the shop, ramen girl was on vacation and the old man had to hire 2 new guys just to replace her and they still couldn't keep up with what she did. First off they prepared Naruto a special extra large bowl of ramen and put it down right in front of him, he starts drooling, screams Itadakimasu and is just about the start eating when the old man takes the bowl away because in the process of serving new guy actually put his hand in the soup. They apologize and quickly go make another bowl but in their hurry they spill it all on the floor right in front of Naruto who at this point is extremely hungry and seeing all the wasted ramen right in front of him is only making it worse. Then Kakashi has to step in and prevent the old guy from firing the new guys, just so Naruto can get his ramen. It played out much better than it sounds and I looked forward to seeing it animated.
A supposedly world famous ramen shop not serving ramen is just stupid, no one ever told them the customer comes first. I have no idea why they did that and I also don't know why they changed Yamato's lines because he just like most of the other ninjas in Naruto seem to hate ramen.
Dreaming impossible dreams.
Sapphire is awesome!
I get that the scene was different but was it really enough to "ruin the whole experience" for you? The actual humor of the scene came from Yamato and Kakashi anyways so the circumstances leading to that being slightly different shouldn't ruin everything. Unless you thought Naruto being hungry was hilarious but I doubt that.
Fort one it really wasn't that funny, honestly i don't even understand how you enjoyed it so much, second trhe whole scene took way too much time and completely ruined the pace of the episode.
