Just finished watching it. It was cute. I was starting to get into it, by episode 12 I thought "oooh... this is going to have a bad ending... or a sad one either way
( Read more... )
There is a lot of Naruto but you'll be surprised how quickly it goes by, especially if you use an episode guide to skip filler crap. Filler neither progresses story, nor effects canon. It's also all really boring and draggy.
Half (or more) of the original Naruto series is filler so there's really only 100 episodes or so to watch before you move on to Shippuden.
Bleach, I dunno about as I haven't started watching it yet (or rather restarted watching it. Left off at around episode 60 or so when it was originally airing)
Bleach is done airing in Japan. Naruto is still airing. We're in some pretty epic episodes right now. The manga hasn't ended yet, either so who knows how much longer Naruto will go on. It's almost over!! *almost*!!
Oh. And my Mike was like your Mike about the whole "WTF?! ENDING?!" when I started him on anime. Of course one of the first ones I made him watch was Evangelion ;D
trying to figure out what to start him on lol something serious/drama/sci-fi, like Eva would be good, but I have a feeling he will ask more questions rather than pay attention... to the point when he misses a ton of shit and asks whats going on? can u rewind it? T_T once he gets into it the questions become less. [if the questions get answered in a series/movie i just tell him to watch, but sometimes he asks questions so... maybe good for a discussion AFTERwards? x-x i donno]
but maybe a comedy would catch the attention first? it's tough thinking about what a person's first anime should be.... he watched akira and speed racer.... he loved Akira.. but that was many years ago.
I'm trying to think... I'm sure he would love kenshin, but I'm thinking of a movie or a short series... ack >_< got a list of suggestions? secretly he would like a girly drama with love stories, but he will just joke about it the whole time pretending not to [like needing to watch the next eps of dexter or frienge because it ended on a OMG moment dealing

Trigun or Cowboy Bebop, sure. Short and complete series.
Trigun was the first one I made mine watch and then Wolf's Rain. Worked up to Eva XD cause Eva really is a bad first anime
