This isn't the case for me... shorter series=easier to watch again and again and again....

That is one of the advantages of those short animes ... but still i want some shorter animes to become a bit longer and have a more longer story line ...

Yes but think about it this way: shorter animes have less story time because they have to. Think about Coy Boybebop... You'd have to add either episodes that have nothing to do with the plot or completely re-write the storyline... too much work.

No no .. i was not referring to those great anime series like cowboy bebop, or eva, or Love Hina ... etc .... im leaning more to Ah! my goddess series, or FLCL( even though i havent seen it) ... those are the series that i want to become a bit longer and have a more fuller story ... look at Ah! my goddess, the manga is really long but the tv-series is only 6 episodes ... i kno i kno, the manga was done after the tv-series was made, but it would have been nice to see a longer Ah! my goddess tv-series because it was soo good.

As for Cowboy bebop, while were are on the subject ... i though it was just right, not to long and not to short ... 8)

I have to agree on the Ah My Goddess series seeming too short, it felt like there were episodes missing in between.

I guess you have that chibi goddess thing now.. that has lots.

Oh, and Inuyasha.. the soap opera of the anime world, is apparently trying to beat out Maison Ikkoku.

I'd have to go *Old School* and say Gunnm: Battle angel Alita should have had at a run.

FLCL... I think probably my brain would have exploded if it went on too much longer than it did.

Some series just sort of... end. Like Witch hunter Robin, didn't that feel like it needed another episode?

I kno that feeling of incompleteness ... i felt the same way with the Love Hina tv-series ... it didnt really show wat happened afterwards and about the promise gurl and all, i was a bit disappointed but when i read the manga, it had a way better ending so now im happy.

Sensei III has been lending me the Love Hina manga...I owe her big time. Now that the school's gone upside down I think the daily dose of anime/manga I get from her is all that's keeping me going!

Btw, I'm not kidding. My school has gone upside down. Hell on earth. There is no hope.

i liked the manga. (Love Hina) but naru's a whore. She'a far too abusive. I woulda gone with Motoko from the manga. I've already discussed my reasons for this choice. But suffice it to say, I think it's the better choice.
