Which of these major anime franchises is your favorite?
| Five+1 manga |
| Sword Art Online |
| I haven't seen Bleach, Fairy Tail, One Piece and SAO. Not interested in any of them. However, if I was new to anime, I'd probably have given SAO a shot. |
| Haven't seen Dragonball Z or Fairy Tail, and only read like 8 volumes of the Bleach manga. Sailor Moon is my favorite out of these, though. |
| What's sailor moon? Never heard of it |

dadnaya said: What's sailor moon? Never heard of it A mainstream magical girl franchise with a manga series, two anime series, a live-action series and a host of Japanese stage musicals. The first series ran for 5 seasons back in the 90s and was highly popular in the U.S. when it aired on Cartoon Network. The second series began airing in 2014 and is ongoing, with the third cour set to air in 2016. |
| I watched most of them (at least partly), but finished only three. Out of those, Fairy Tail is my favourite. Fullmetal Alchemist and Dragon Ball Z come on place 2 and 3 for me. Bleach: Watched it up to some point beyond the Bounto arc, but gave up due to fillers. Death Note: Dropped after the first episode; didn't like anything about it. Dragonball Z: My childhood. Fairy Tail: Recently watched the full first series. Best long running battle shounen in my opinion. Fullmetal Alchemist: Watched this ages ago, and loved it. Naruto: Watched up to the point where Sasuke left. Read the manga up to some point after the Pain arc, but got too boring for me. One Piece: Watched up to episode 100 or something, but dropped it cause it got boring. Pokemon: Watched most of the first season, and some episodes here and there of the later seasons. It's one of the worst anime I've watched, but it's Pokémon. Sailor Moon: Never watched it. Sword Art Online: Liked it for being about MMOs, but wasn't nearly as cool as I'd hoped it would be after the first few episodes. |

| Literally none except Pokemon, and there are valid reasons for that. |
"So wave goodbye to the hope we were born with, and say farewell to the chance of surviving this holocaust of love, this age of lost souls, but I'm holding on with both hands and I'm never letting go." |
| Define "seen". I've seen a bit of bleach (I stopped watching around the time the green haired little girl became a character), I've seen most of Death Note, I've probably seen all of DBZ, I've only watched two episodes of Fairy Tail, I've seen a little bit of FMA, I've seen Naruto (from the first episode to the point where , I've seen exactly one episode of One Piece , I was huge into Pokemon as a kid and watched the show but dropped it around the time the gen 3 games came out when I stopped watching, I watched Sailor Moon as a kid and I'm not sure how much of it I saw (but I did recently rewatch the first season), I watched maybe the first four episodes of Sword Art Online when it first aired but got bored and stopped watching it. I don't think I've watched any of them to completion, but I've "seen" all of them aside from One Piece. |

AnnaSartin said: I think most everyone here has at least some knowledge of Bleach, Death Note, Dragon Ball Z, Fairy Tail, Fullmetal Alchemist, Naruto, One Piece, Pokemon, Sailor Moon and Sword Art Online, even if that knowledge is just knowing about these shows' overwhelming popularity. Anyone here seen all ten of them? Or, unlikely though it may be, is there anyone who has never seen ANY? (And if not, what anime anime do you see as a major franchise?) Popular based on what? I know for a fact that series like Detective Conan, Doraemon and Sazae-san are vastly more popular. |
| Don't want to watch Bleach, dropped Death Note half way but it's good, Watched all of Dragonball and only plebs call it by Z, dropped Fairy Tail 1% through it's shit, FMA is the best shonen series ever, Naruto was pretty good but I got sick of fillers around the war part, not gonna start One Piece, Pokemon is shit past a certain point if only it goes on forever for no reason, never saw Sailor Moon, and SAO is garbage in season 1 and I hear season 2 isn't much better |
| From that poll, I've only seen Sword Art Online all the way through. I thought it was alright. I'll finish Fullmetal Alchemist (my "favorite") eventually, and I might watch Death Note one of these days. Other than that, I don't have much interest in the other shows listed. |
| Never seen Sailor Moon out of those. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| I've seen 3. The rest are too long. |
| If you generalize, you're wrong. |

Rinth said: For some reason people on MAL tend to differentiate between "mainstream on American TV", "mainstream on Japanese TV", and "popular on MAL". OP's list is based on the former type for the most part, although Sword Art Online isn't a kids show so it's debatable.AnnaSartin said: I think most everyone here has at least some knowledge of Bleach, Death Note, Dragon Ball Z, Fairy Tail, Fullmetal Alchemist, Naruto, One Piece, Pokemon, Sailor Moon and Sword Art Online, even if that knowledge is just knowing about these shows' overwhelming popularity.

| Bleach - No, and I don't really intend to. Death Note - Yeah, it was good but the characters were extremely dry for my taste. Also the second half was meh. Dragonball Z - Bits and peaces of it, but not the whole thing. Maybe one day I'll watch it through. Fairy Tail - No, I kind of want to but the polarizing reviews on it (people seem to either love or hate it) is kind of holding me off. Fullmetal Alchemist - No, but i plan to watch Brotherhood sometime. Naruto - I've seen all of pre-Shippuden (minus the fillers) and about the first 50-60 episodes of Shippuden before losing interest. I'm considering getting back to it eventually. One Piece - One of my top 3 anime. Love this series so much. Pokemon - Bits and peaces of it, but not all the episodes. Don't have any plans to watch all the episodes ever. Sailor Moon - I tried watching the reboot but didn't like it. Sword Art Online - Yes. Season 1 was okay, but the fairy arc took it down a few notches. Season 2 was even worse. |

| Death Note-My 1st and one of my favorite anime.Its amazing FMA-The best anime i have watched by far Naruto-In my top 5 anime,it would be number 1 without fillers (The manga is the best manga for me) SAO-Sucks. |

| >popular anime >doesn't include S;G C'mon OP |
 |
| Have seen all of: Death Note Fullmetal Alchemist 2003 and 2009 (but not Sacred Star of Milos or the OVAs) Sailor Moon (minus Crystal) Sword Art Online S1 Have seen substantial amounts of: Bleach (through ep 92) Naruto (through ep 167) Have only seen a few episodes of: Fairy Tail, DBZ, Pokemon, One Piece, though I have seen around 7 Pokemon movies. I'm generally in the "I'd rather watch 53 different minor/otaku-oriented 13-episode series than 700 episodes of [major long-running series]" camp. |

MortalMelancholy said: Lol you just listed all the western dubbed trash~ So much irony, this coming from CG fan.... OT: Seen some, some was decent, some trash, FMA best one of those (No matter if Brotherhood implied or not), DN might be second. |
