Something else I think needs to be pointed out: You're telling people not to call Bleach garbage while calling Naruto garbage at the same time.
ain't I a stinker

Obviously it is not. They just revealed that Naruto is best-selling anime franchise for Tv Tokyo due to its popularity both inside and outside of Japan. Movies and video games helped increase the company's profits. On the other hand there was nothing new about Bleach franchise for years so they are not same...

Kishimoto did a 5-6 pages of collaboration chapter on Kochikame Jump btw
yeah but Bleach still had the IOS game, they keep bringing back the musical, and the live action movie that no asked for is coming (I'm not happy about two of them) but let's be frank here popularity doesn't always mean good or great. But thanks for replys, they're pretty entertaining

It can go both ways really. Something could be considered a hidden gem, a great work not liked by many. Then you have something that's super popular, but probably for all the wrong reasons. I don't think anyone can deny that Kubo Tite really dropped the ball towards the end. He clearly didn't pace himself the way he should have, probably only had a specific amount of chapters to work with, but too much content all over the place to put them in and that backfired on him. That would explain the pacing issues, the insurmountable amount of plot holes and open ended events, and the lackluster & rushed conclusion.

I enjoyed the last however the actual ending is a different story. I agree Kubo just winged it instead of giving it more time for a better ending as a result a lackluster ending with a few things left up in the air, as for the popularity thing yeah I have a few examples of popular for wrong reasons, I don't really hate Sword art online for example....but I don't think it deserves the hype that it gets.

yeah but DBZ, Naruto and One Piece got movies and many games for console in past 4-5 years and I compare Bleach with them because it was supposed to be in same league, right? and it gets nothing, even its anime didn't come back yet thats why I think @JDude042 has a point. Yeah I agree popularity doesn't always mean good or great but I replied for the part (people don't give a shit about it anymore) which one is good or great is a personal opinion...

Even though this is a collaboration, this is a good sign for "Beelzebub" fans as that manga will have a brief return.
