yo diablo, drop the spoilers, nub
Anyhow I find the fights in Naruto to be quite amusing and fun to watch (giant toads, lol) whilst Bleach.... meh they kinda irritate me with endless intervals for chit chats and tea-sipping. I'm tired of seeing their idle faces and feet while jumping. If you want to sip tea then do it right!!

I'll be honest:
I've never seen anything of one piece, yu yu hakusho or naruto ever. I only roughly know what their cast of main characters looks like.

@Mvass: Just finished watching the 5th episode.
I still don't like the mecha designs but I enjoy the characters.

@Dagoth: You should watch Naruto Shippuden then.
(Can't vouch for the first series, as I have not watched it myself; got bored after 4 dubbed episodes. ADVICE: Never watch a Japanese anime dubbed, please. )
My relationship with that series is kinda interesting. I wouldn't have gotten hooked on it if it hadn't been for my friend who invited me to play a Mafia Wars clone based on Naruto. The game had a video app to watch Naruto Shippuden episodes. I got hooked when I saw how dark one of the fights was (zomg good guy got KILLED).
Oh and Naruto > DBZ, because in the latter death is cheap (Dragon Ball wish to resurrect and voila!). And fights take 30 minutes (which is an episode and a half or so) just to start.
All in all, I like the fact that the power curve in Naruto isn't as lolwtfrandomOP like in Dragon Ball Z. In hindsight, it's quite obvious that Toriyama-san got tired of the series (he even admitted that everything post-Saiyan saga was made only because of the fans pushing for it.)
So, basically, what I'm saying is, go watch it!
(I've seen a few eps of One Piece dubbed as well. I heard that dubbing was very cruel to that series, so if I ever go watch it, I'll find it subbed as well.)

Berserk, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Gurren Lagann, Fullmetal Alchemist, all of the dubbed Gundam series, Full Metal Panic, and Code Geass disagree.

@Mvass:
Forgot about the Gundam series. Yeah, they dubbed those pretty good.
I've seen several other series dubbed (mostly in my childhood). It's just that in some of them, you lose details (some of which are relevant to the storyline) because of translation hiccups.
That, or you have to suffer Naruto saying "Believe it!" every two seconds...
Believe it!

Quote: @Dagoth: You should watch Naruto Shippuden then.
You have no idea how much I am enjoying blood+ and you also don't know about my "to-watch" list of anime which has no place for a 300-episode anime. I though blood+ with its meager 50 episodes (am already at 33 for some insane reason) was pushing it.
There is no discernible reason why I enjoy it so thoroughly though... Oh, wait, there is: decent pacing (I'm filled with praise about how it times its exposition and action and weaves the exposition into the story at a steady pace), kickass action, characters I like (even though they're all just fragile flowers and the villains are scum) and girls with swords!
Sometimes I just need to watch something that's rather mindless...
EDIT: also, it understands it's a visual medium and, just like watchmen, it can carry a narrative without excessive amounts of dialogue and can let a powerful image speak for itself (occasionally).

Quote: 300-episode anime
IF you watch the WHOLE thing. I just recommended Shippuden.
You can understand around 95% of the plot even if you don't watch 1 episode of the original series.
But yeah, it's quickly arriving at 200 episodes though (if it hasn't passed it yet).
Quote: girls with swords!
Are we talking regular, katana-ish sized swords, or silly huge FF7 like Buster Blades (this name also taken from the appropriately named Buster Blader of Yu-Gi-Oh! fame). In either case, I think that'd be hawt. And cool. But mostly hawt.

@Mvass: From 1/3 to 1/2 of Yu-Gi-Oh is one big facepalm, so singling that out is a bit harsh.
