In now way should you ever feel ashamed that you have not watched Naruto, Bleach or One Piece.Originally Posted by Saint_Dee
The Big 3 (Naruto, Bleach and One Piece) as some people like to call it. Is nothing but over glamorised shonen shows with a somewhat cult following due to them becoming popular in the 2005 anime wave that passed over the globe (particularly in the states).
Bleach has ended.
Naruto is on it's way out
One Piece at present manga wise there is no end it sight, how ever Oda has stated that One Piece is a actual treasure not "The adventure and journey that was taken".
I would never recommend it to anyone that is showing an interest in anime, it's probably the worst thing you can introduce some one to out right. It's long very long, it's story is dragged out due to it being adapted at a rate of 3 - 5 chapters of manga per an episode. It's riddled with fillers (Bleach comes to mind) and finally is meant to for the Shonen age group whom have grown up watching the show. If you where 12 in 1999 when One Piece started you will be about 29 years old now.
I only continue to watch because I have been watching since shortly after their appearance on TV.
