This is much better then the awful "bleach vs naruto, one piece" thread what was going on at mangafox(which I personally consider a bad site).
Their is some good conversation going through.
So I will just say One Piece,the Naruto author is just tired of working on his series and desires to move on to something new, the Bleach author Is now just in a fit... He can't really do the whole fighting formula nicely, Bleach's problems are not really the plot( The plot is really dull) but for the fact its soulless, and that not that creative. I think I might be the only one in this thread who thought Soul Society was awful....
Bleach had potential to be fun, cool fun, with some flavor with the structure it was following in the first four volumes.
I think when I first heard of Soul Society, I was so excited.
I couldn't wait to see the creative world design....
Then Kubo let me down. Soul Society was major disappointment.
I saw the most average usage of characterization, cliched development....
boring ass fights. I know this was the shounen fighting formula, but it was done in poor way.
But for some reason most people from forums I've been to (mangafox, Onemanga) still seem to praise Bleach as being even nuraber one..
I actually did see a guy give out an obnoxious post on mangafox forums claiming Bleach has intricate world detail, while Bleach had was random.
