    One Piece actually just ended the first half a while back. It's in the 2nd arc of the 2nd half in the manga and one arc behind in the anime. So far, the current arc has been underwhelming, to say the least. However, the next one is being hyped up as one of the best so we'll see. The ending of the first half was epic too so one one bad arc doesn't have me too worried. I would say the manga is better (I'm halfway through 1st half), but it doesn't really matter if you don't mind the pacing and some filler.

    I personally think One Piece picks up drastically once Luffy starts using his "gear" modes.

    And Trigun, well, it's oldschool. You should at least give it a try, I can't really say much about it because it doesn't really fit into any genre's I can think of right now.

    Agreed, I really enjoyed skypiea too though, which is pretty much right before that.

    I know, I'm not looking forward to it.
    Starts off slow, but around episode 13, picks up very fast in terms of story. But very good, and silly.

    Yess, it's the only one out of the three that I still read weekly. I had been anticipating that chapter since Tobi was first shown and my suspicions about who he was were correct. I'm actually really looking forward to the next chapter.

    I may start reading Bleach again and One Piece again. I stopped reading the latter after a the whole "five levels of hell" or whatever ordeal.

    Yeah, the Madara thing is still a mystery at this point. He may have been lying about that. It just stated in the last chapter that he is
    the kid that gave Kakashi an eye, Obito

    The anime is already finished? I must be living under a rock then. I never have been a fan of the anime though, I feel like I'm missing parts that would normally be in the manga, haha.

    BELIEVE IT!

    no, I don't think it is done, but I thought it was coming to an end soon.

    Ah, I think it has been mentioned that the series will be closing within a year. This is good, I wouldn't want it to end up like Dragon Ball GT.

    GT had a great idea, but horrible execution.

    what?!?! Tobi is

    i didn't know that! I somewhat behind on naruto, so I'm gonna start reading it again.

    [br][/br]
    Edited by merge:


    I just read it.............. I thought that Tobi was

    obito, but then I thought it was madara, but then I was completely confused, so now its obito.

    Strange.

    Actually, I think he said that he had the power of Madara Uchiha at that time, not that he was Madara Uchiha. I don't quite remember though.
    Who knows, there is probably going to be some crazy plot twist accompanied with this.

    pretty sure he is...
    Obito, but went by Madara in order to conceal his identity, should it be discovered by say... Kakashi.

    They usually update chapters every Thursday at Kissmanga. I like using this site because it loads all of the pages on the screen at once. I imagine next chapter is going to be some kind of extended flashback or have a ton of dialogue.

    Aschur, one of the images in your rotation is broken I think.
