Wow, so Bleach is ending? Hmm, will they just animate the final arc Tite Kubo is drawing once he is done with it?

Thinking something like this. Something, "Inuyasha: The Final Act"-esque.

Maybe we'll have some good, fast-paced, well animated closure-arc?

I'm guessing the ratings for the show weren't so hot... I've yet to meet anyone in Japan who immediately knows the show when I try to explain that it and Naruto are, by and large, more popular here among teens than One Piece. The manga still sells pretty well, and as someone who liked the earlier volumes, I hope it gets a good ending, even if it's never animated.

Finally. But the hanging question is what will replace it in the Big Three for anime? Fairy Tale?

Toriko is currently looking to hold that title from a ratings perspective.

Yes, it's happening. It's effing happening. The series will be off until there is enough Manga material to finish the Anime in one fell swoop.

Perfect.

Big Three is Jump only, so Toriko.

Wow. A little surprised by this, but I think it's time. Hope it ends on a high note.

This reminds of an argument I have with a friend of mine. He reveres One Piece as being the best anime/manga ever created, and I respond with the fact that it flopped in the states.

I haven't watched Bleach since spoiler[Ichigo defeated Aizen]; Can anyone say if the following arc is any good? And, if you could compare it to any previous arc, in terms of quality, which would you pick?

Edit: Spoiler tags added.

Will Toriko really take over discussion and rise to prominence among fans to the point of nausea and raised ire among non-WSJ fans? I have my doubts, I don't think we'll be seeing Toriko cosplay in droves at conventions. That's what I mean by Big Three.

I dunno if it will over here, but Toriko already tops Naruto on a normal basis in Jump rankings, and its TV ratings far surpass Naruto.
