Why did you choose your Avatar and/or Signature?

I'm afraid at this point it's impossible for the current anime to keep going without filler and the way the current arc has been paced it'll easily end in less than 10 episodes. If they were to continue it with filler it would have to be a long, long stretch, like Naruto's infamous 85-episode filler hell. I'd rather the anime end now than have that, personally.

Maybe we'll get a third anime in 10 years that starts from the beginning and ends with the end of the dark continent arc.

[gunswordfist]

Maybe we can get a Leorio filler arc

[LumRanmaYasha]

That...would actually be kinda awesome, if done well.

It's simultaneously hilarious and sad that this could actually be a conceivable possibility. It took Togashi nearly that long just to complete the a Chimera Ant arc, after all.

Why does Togashi take so unbelievably long?

[LumRanmaYasha]

Because he can. Both YYH and HXH are two of the highest selling manga ever and he's married to the fucking creator of Sailor Moon. He basically has the financial freedom to draw the series whenever he damn pleases and take a break for however long he wants.

[Dr. Ensatsu-ken]

Yeah, Togashi and Takeuchi are pretty much fucking loaded.

That, and HXH volumes always sell in the millions whenever they release, so WSJ just has no reason to get rid of it. Infrequent releases or not, it still makes them money.

For some reason, this reminds me that I'm jealous of Nick Cannon.

[talonmalon333]

It honestly just seems like he's uninterested in it to me.

[Dr. Ensatsu-ken]

If he was uninterested he wouldn't bother with the series at all. I mean, after all, he is already pretty much made for life with the money that his wife pulls in from royalties and whatnot. Also, his story-telling would noticeably suffer for it and that would reflect in the manga's sales. While he has definitely had his moments of shitty writing, the story has been well above the standards of most currently running WSJ series with the last third of the Chimera Ant arc, the Chairman Election arc, and currently the Dark Continent arc. So, no, it's not a lack of interest, but rather he only continues to write when he's most interested in doing so.

Shitty writing never hurt Kishimoto, Kubo, and Mashima. 

[Dr. Ensatsu-ken]

Well, they're fans are idiots.

[gunswordfist]

Who the fuck is Mashima?

[Dr. Insomniac]

Who the fuck is Mashima?

The guy who writes Fairy Tail.
