It's probably been around for 500 episodes because it's actually pretty good.
Hard concept to understand, I know.

Or, it was good at the start, and now people just keep watching it because they're familiar with it.

Naruto is 500 episodes of too-used-to-watch-to-stop.
One Piece is 500 episodes of O-M-F-G-what's-next illness.

That just sounds impossible by the laws of nature.

No show keeps it's quality throughout it's entire run-through.
Animes unfortunately just have longer average lifespans because they're not afflicted by the same common problems non-animated shows face.

I'm failing to see the difference.

That's One Piece for ya, defying the laws of nature. Oda's just a manga genius, is all. The anime's only so good because of the amazing manga he creates on a
almost
weekly basis. And what's hilarious is that the manga just passed the halfway point less than a year ago, so we have at least another decade of One Piece in store for us. :)

Probably because you do not watch good series.
This is true.
As far as I know though, neither do you.

Also another reason why it/they have an unusually long lifespans.
They're following (most of the time) actually good mangas, and then people also watch the animes ... just because.

If one likes a manga, then it follows that they'd probably like to see that manga fully animated and voiced. I don't see how that could be construed as a bad thing, especially if said anime follows the manga closely enough to always maintain its quality. Which, by the way, One Piece has for the past 12 years and will for the next decade. I personally read and watch One Piece, as I feel that they both offer a unique flavour to the same story due to the differing ways they present it. But none of this really matters, I still find Gin Tama to be the best anyways. :awesome:

Anyway, earlier today/yesterday I went to a friend's graduation party to play Brawl and party and whatever. And at that party, one of the guests brought an apple cake as a dessert. Now, I've never even heard of apple cake, but I forced myself to try it nonetheless (I'm not usually one for trying new things, you see). And I gotta say, it was much better than I expected. Not my favourite dessert, but it's up there. Yay apples.

TL;DR the manga and anime are equally good in the same way and are basically the same except they're different in their own ways.

Xaltis is bad, don't lose to him.

well, then, since you did what Rei asked you to do, I guess you wouldn't mind fulfilling the following request, darling~ after all, friends share joys and pains the same way, right? =D





oh I think THESE are simply adorable for you. (no, actually I made the sig ugly on purpose lol)
why don't you try them on, and wear them for a while...a LONG while...'till my pink name vanishes? >=D
I'm so mean.
That avatar is awesome though.

And much better than Mink's silly human Dash.

So yesterday while running errands, I found myself at Big Lots and saw an opportunity for more pony merch.

Was disappointed when all they had was G3 in the pink aisle and Fluttershy on the wall.

That's a good enough reason for me.

Certain characters have priority, just because. Applejack > Rarity > Twilight > Dash > Fluttershy.

In terms of toys, that is. And Pinkie and Applejack would be ApplePie.
