Because they're based.

Kubo did mention that every single event after defeating Aizen is non canon.

was bleach still popular when it ended? i stopped reading sometime during the ulquiorra fight.

They aren't. Bleachfags on Yas Forums just can't let go of their dead series.

>Kubo
who?

Because Kubo isn't a hack.

Kubo is too precious for Shueisha. He even has Jump's chief editor in his pocket.

why was Bleach's OST so good?

Where/when did he say this? I can't find anything on it.

Lurk more newfag.

I really hope you're embarrassed for replying to that.

FPBP.

When was that bleach event supposed to happen?

In 10 days.

>Naruto revival: ass
>Dragon Ball revival: ass
>One Piece: Still going and bound to become ass at this rate

Guess even the shittier of the "Best 3" deserves its try.

Naruto is easily the worst. At least Bleach didn't betray it's themes.

No harm in trying really. At the very least the art will look good unlike S8

Por matate pinche retrasado bleachfag nigger. Tu serie es mierda y su autor es un fraude.

we're 10 days away guys

Explain

Fullbring completely betrays the core themes of death and the afterlife from the early series. It's clearly a failed attempt at trying something different.

Also, for the school aspect that the series started with, it dropped and forgot about its non-powered characters quicker than Dragon Ball.

It constantly betrayed its own themes, and when it didn't it was repeating the same worn out rescue arc.

>Fullbring completely betrays the core themes of death and the afterlife from the early series
How?

Narutos theme was being alone sucks. It never betrayed that theme.

As much as I'm on your side, a key theme of Naruto was that hard work and determination are the keys to success...

...but luckily he's now the reincarnation of a god or something

>so much faith
?

Sasuke is better off alone than with his family

Pleb filter.

I wanna see some damn bankais, goddammit.

>IRCucks seething at the very possibility of the anime returning.

>he thinks kishi is the only author who has done more than one manga for jump
kindly fuck off

That was literally never true, unless you're willing to add "but without talent you will get fucked anyway".

>what is Naruto vs Neji

And? There are a bunch of characters that improved through hard work and determination. Naruto included. Just because he got some power ups along the way doesn't invalidate the effort he put in to reach the point where he could get powered up. Or do you think he could have handled Senjutsu or his other transformations at the start of the manga?
It was only through hard work and determination that he ever made any friends at all. That was the only reason he ever got Sasuke to see eye to eye with him.

It was basically power at any cost was the key to success. Like the cost of enslaving demon things inside children to make them living weapons. Nobody solely worked hard for their powers in Naruto and succeeded.

>Naruto included.

A fight where a lifetime of brutal training and mastery of his special abilities wasn't enough to stop Naruto making him eat dirt after a few weeks of casual training towards mastering Naruto's own, much more potent special abilities

I feel like he should be a success but there's zero evidence of it.

Neji was right all along.

That is exactly what I was saying.

user, you realize that a story an have multiple themes right? And that they can sometimes seem at odds with each other? We call that complexity.
A major overarching theme of Naruto was are sins of the father my own? Can you be more than what your parents or siblings have done? The beast inside of Naruto was part of that idea and Naruto gaining control and acceptance of it is separate, but not exclusive, from the idea that hard work and determination are essential in life. Determination was the only thing that stopped Naruto from losing himself to the fox at first and hard work was what allowed him to tame it and use it's powers.
This shit is like middle school level critical thinking. I can't believe you need it explained to you.

that wasn't hard work that was the power of friendship, which is a pretty mixed metaphor when you're talking slave/master relationship.

user, it's literally all interconnected. That's what I'm saying and what you seem to not understand. Hard work, determination, power of friendship, overcoming the sins of your father, becoming more than your past, etc., etc. are all main themes of Naruto. Trying to act like Naruto having a leg up power wise invalidates anything is fucking retarded. The story was never about Naruto being a weakling that had to prove himself. It was about striving forward with the powers that you have and pushing past what you think your limits are.

Not saying Naruto wasn't determined but everyone was determined enough to commit atrocities and shit for shortcuts to power. Really the opposite of hard work in most successful characters' cases. The series is all about taking shortcuts and never living with consequences.

What "successful character's" atrocities are you talking about?

It sold 400k copies per volume which isn't
much but more than anything in jump barring OP, KnY, and MHA atm. Basically, they're desperate for sales.

all Jinchuriki, Orochimaru most definitely, every single eyeball that gets stolen, every single person with a plot AGAINST jinchuriki, summoning kind of? It's not "work" but it's not free.

>was that hard work and determination are the keys to success...
No that wasn't you retard

>series about coping with death
>literally nobody dies
It did

Speedreader

Jesus christ user, what does the inside of your brain look like. The Jinchuriki didn't commit any sin for power, Orochimaru is the villain, your plots against Jinchuriki people are most probably also villains, and summoning is a skill that you have to learn. Like, what you're saying just doesn't make sense.
Do you think the Jinchuriki don't live with any consequences? Did you read literally even the first chapter of Naruto? You think Orochimaru has no short comings or consequences?

>Got 2 DLCs in Jump force
Also has the most broke character in Jump Force too.

Jinchuriki have zero consequences and until they do befriend the beasts (and even at the end) they are strictly an enemy that is enslaved. Orochimaru never ever faced any consequences. Most of the successful people in Naruto ARE villains for this exact reason, though most of them faced consequences for their actions unlike the villainous protagonists.
