Long series

Post by ShadowAgent »

So, there is quite a bit of long running series out there. Like Bleach, One Piece, Naruto.. you get the idea. My question I want to ask everyone is would you like to see current released episodes or see stuff from the beginning? I went both ways last year, but really got no feedback if either was better or not.

How many of you would be like "Oh, I have heard alot about that anime and would like to see it, but not get thrown in the middle of a story"?

Truth be told, I always preferred watching any series from the beginning, whether the show ran 13 episodes or 70. I can't tell you how many times my late wife and I sat down for a screening at AB and made a beeline for the dealer's room right after viewing the first disk!

I think running the series from the beginning is the best bet that way you don't run into situations with filler or anything like that. If filler became an issue maybe we could skip those episodes.

personally, i've always agreed with the saying "the beginning is a good place to start".
