The Irregular at Magic High School. The light novels are 10/10, but the anime cut to much, rushed it, and changed some scenes :/. I still enjoyed it, but it could have been so much more.

Its short. The plot is somewhat complex but could have lasted longer with more dynamic scenes. Its about 8 episodes.

8 episodes? I thought it was 23? Or are you talking about just that part of it?

It's still really good. Especially the second series.

Wow, lucky. I'm still hoping for the day when a good Toriko anime adaptation will arrive. (even though it's unlikely)

I wish we got more Shaman King and that the anime didn't go off manga

I wish OP got a great quality anime, it could be the best long running anime but Toei butchered it

I wish Togashi wasn't this lazy

A decent Toriko anime would be great

Also I wish Obito and Kaguya never existed

The old chapters had a art style to which i can say might be average(not below) but should i not remind you of how old the manga is? One piece also had a crappy art style in it's early chapters. History's strongest Disciple Kenichi had a very poor art style when it first hit the shelves, But now it has improved to a vast amount of difference. Hiatuses are indeed the sole problem of the manga, i can see no other big downfall of the series. I don't see the need to pass this amazing series on to someone like Oda, because where Oda expertise's in is character development and i can't honestly tell the lack of character development in HxH.

Lots of hiatuses and the art is below average at best.
One piece also had a crappy art style when it first hit the shelves and History's strongest disciple had a even worse art style in its early chapters. Hiatuses are indeed a problem, but that's no reason to list why it should have been better. Hiatuses don't define a manga for what it is, the story and depth do. HxH is perfect as it is, i see no need to hand over a masterpiece like HxH to Oda, for i do not see the need. HxH has a good story, a good character development and even great antagonists. If you do not like the art then you may simply watch the anime(2011), it has decent animations and is more connected to the manga.

i second this. togashi is on the top when it comes to character development and HxH does definitely not need someone else to do it. the series is perfect as it is!

One Piece never had shitty art. It was always above average it just got a lot better when Oda got more experience. HXH has just bad art

OP's art was never bad, those were probably low quality scans of earlier chapters you've seen.

Agreed, although HxH's art atm is good for someone who does all the work himself.

I ordered some op volumes and they came in today and it's really amazing how much better it looks when it's on paper in normal manga format. Not stretched out, everything looks so clean.

Akame Ga Kill
Bleach

The Last Arc of those two was not so cool
the only good thing in bleach last arc for me is that characters like komamura have new abilities and Aizens return

Yeah, I've remember reading OP volumes at my local library before. OP is the only series that I want to own all the volumes.

Manga: Toriko.. buts sadly the mangaka mess up halfway and the series never live up to its expectation.

Anime : Seed destiny, why can't shinn be more kamille bidan ? both are self centered brat but the former never change till the end.
and they should totally get rid of Cagali in destiny, she's pretty much an eyesore though the series.

AgK getting a faithful to manga anime adaptation would be really nice.
