Biased? Yeah, me who reads bleach and naruto AND hxh IN ADDITION TO ONE PIECE and HAVE BEEN READING THEM since before you even knew their existence, yeah I am biased sir. Nice logic...
And LOL @ popularity? How many times have you been to japan? Americans are stupid so they are down with stupid shows like naruto and bad music like ICP, congrats, you just proved that this country is dumb
HxH does not blow one piece away. I LOVED HxH but it was only good for the first 2 arcs. After that, you can tell the author lost touch with his series. Oda never lost touch with one piece.
And if you actually paid attn to one piece then you would understand. Just because we have read the same amount of chapters does not mean we have analyzed them the same. You clearly are a 1 dimension kinda guy, taking things for face value.
The language barrier is a non issue when you have actual japanese citizens helping you translate, which good scanlators do. I don't even need to mention how many times I've seen MS bring up things that could be arguably defined as more than 1.
I am not biased, I am simply informed.
just reading them does not excuse you for being biased
ive been reading hunter and one piece since their initial release dates, so there goes that theorey for you
and i wasn't specifically stating that it was only more popular in america, i mean WORLDWIDE naruto is more popular than one piece(also note there is now a city named naruto AND there is an official naruto mint copy of the currency)
ive been to japan twice actually, one for the manga festival, one for pleasure
and ive noticed your argument changes from one piece, to blah blah blah americans lol, are you that dense that you need to try and insult where i live? i don't need to sink that low to verbal you
hxh IS and will always be better than one piece, way better character development and more solid storylines
not to mention they were hinting at the chimera arc WAY before they even introduced kuroro lucifer, so it's not just a dumb chapter like you seem to think
and you're right, we didn't analyze them the same, i, keep my mind open to any and every possible situation, while you, think in a straight line following the same pattern
the language barrier is an issue, because even people who were raised with japanese as their first language, and are incredibly fluent in their english language, CANNOT translate directly, there has to be common sense put into the equation or it wouldn't make sense, you seem to have problems understanding that
so with my conclusion, i suggest you try being unbiased in your next keyboard flurry, because your one lane way of thinking isn't nearly enough to converse with a superior being such as myself
try again randhat
