That reason doesn`t satisfy me. Give me another one.

Because he may have lost track of what he originally wanted to do with it, and just followed the path that Akira and Kubo did. Naruto started fine, but now it's just ridiculous, I think he should've left it on a cliff hanger after the Sasuke retrieval thing.

It drags on for too long and the viewers get bored of watching uninteresting, dull fillers. Many bland side characters get a lot of screen time, leaving only a little for the main characters in some episodes. The art is mediocre. This anime ruined the name of ninjas as well.

Pretty much has the same problems. I believe that animes should not last more than two seasons at max.

I got bored when I got to the 70th and something episode of Bleach. It has a nice story and I like the art very much.

I`ve watched a couple of short ones recently and I loved the fact that I can finish the entire story in a day, it can take me up to two weeks but not more.

Do you have any gore\horror\thriller anime recommendations for me please? =D

Paprika (It is just a movie so you won't have to worry about it dragging on for too long =) and it is a psychological thriller thriller)

Blood: The Last Vampire (It is just a film as well and is a horror anime)

Le Portrait de Petit Cossette ( I am planning on watching this myself as well someday)

Have you seen Kakurenbo Hide & Seek ? its a short film but its really good. And Perfect Blue is crazy!!! Its about the psychological disintegration a j-pop singer that has a psycho crazy stalker...a definate must see. hmm...theres lots more...umm hellsing, trinity blood. If you like vampires then I suggest vampire knight which I'm in the process of watching as of late...I love it. But it is kinda romancy...so if your not into that I don't suggest watching it.

Ah.....Perfect Blue is directed by the Satoshi Kon, who also directed Paprika.

I suggest two more of his movies, Millennium Actress and Tokyo Godfathers. I am obsessed with this man's works. They are all masterpieces.

Psychological isn`t really my thing. I prefer something I understand all the way.

As I said before Le Portrait de Petite Cosette is amazing.

I enjoy Bleach a lot more than Naruto because of the art style and the fact it has not had as many fillers as Naruto has. That and the new filler that's on is really interesting. The Bount Filler Arc put me off for a long time and I didn't even bother with the Captain Amagai filler, and the only battles that seem to go on for waaay too long are Ichigo's big battles.

Episod 110 is the first episode of the Arrancar Arc which is the main story arc and that continues till 167 before the Amagai filler which goes till 189 and 190 onwards has been the best season so far though at Ep 230 is the Zanpakuto Unknown Tales filler Arc where we get to meet almost all of the Shinigami's Zanpakuto spirits and it's interesting, and the only reason it's there is because the anime has been catching up with the manga waaaay too fast but at the same time I wish it was caught up since the latest few manga releases have had one of those heart poundingly awesome fights.
