(Note, that is an intentional typo : P)
I was wondering if anyone here reads any series regularily.
I've been following OP since 2003, I've also picked started following Seven Deadly Sins, and currently I've begun two new series after several of the ones I read ended (that being: Bleach, to make fun of how horribly pretentious and vapid it was, Toriko, because it was awesome until the end where everything was offscreened and drowned in exposition) and those being Uratarou and To You, the Immortal.
Uratarou is kind of like a more metal version of Inuyasha that's actually written well and doesn't suck
To You, the Immortal is a series about immortality, loss, and how to gutpunch your audience on a semi constant basis.
I also read Fairy Tail, for much the same reason that I read Bleach, namely to laugh at the sheer stupidity and triteness of it. It's probably the one manga I would say is closest to being made on an assembly line.
As far as things I've read in the past, I've read Hokuto no Ken, Sakigake Otokojuku, Kinnikuman, Flame of Recca, MÄR and Kongo Bancho (seriously more people need to read this awesomely over the type manly awesomeness, the first chapter has the main character beat a bunch of yakuza up with a car) and I watched a few other anime over the years, though I'm not a big watcher.
Things I've watched in the past include several series of Slayers, though none of the more recent ones, DB and DBZ, the first three series of Digimon and some others.
As far as things I've given up on, there's Hunter X Hunter, because I refuse to tolerate the way Togashi treats his own readers.
So....that's that then : P
