FMA vs. Naruto vs. InuYasha

[Justineer]

Of all the anime, three titles seem to stand out in popularity right now. These are:
*Naruto
*Full Metal Alchemist
*InuYasha

So my question is... Which is the most popular?
Let's find out!

Fullmetal and Naruto are the most popular. InuYasha's seems to have died down quite abit in both Japan and the US.

 

[Justineer]

Wow, you responded quickly. I pefer Naruto.

 

[Luke Groundwalker]

Out of those three I prefer FMA, but I do love Naruto, none-the-less. Though I do hate Inuyasha with a passion. =)

 

[RED1992]

LOL what are u talking about they all suck.

 

[Chris]

Considering the fact that Naruto is downright exactly similar to Dragon Ball Z in many ways? Right.

 

[kaibachaoschampion]

Well, I prefer Naruto more, FMA is good. Couldn't really guess which is more popular of the two though...

 

[undisputed_seraphim]

FMA. I'd pick Inuyasha too, but I can't choose >1. I don't enjoy Naruto, but that's my opinion, 'cos the characters look kinda wierd and lame to me.

 

[Skiks]

Naruto and FMA seem to be the most popular right now and practically tied. I enjoy FMA a little more with its intriguing plot. Naruto Characters aren't lame at all. =( As for Inuyasha it doesn't intrest me at all.

Suffice to say, while I prefer Fullmetal Alchemist out of those three, Naruto is probably the most popular series right now. Once Fullmetal Alchemist has its movie dubbed and brought over to the United States, then it will most likely die down as well. Inuyasha has its popularity going down (you have no idea how thankful I am to not have to see fangirls and fanboys claim that this piece of crap is a masterpiece).

Basically, Naruto looks to be the only series out of the three to maintain its popularity for the long run right now.

You forget the FA manga is still going and there's still quite a lot of things to bring out, such as the third novel and more manga novels.

 

[DigitalKaede]

Good point.

Well I would choose Naruto or FMA. Inuyasha is actually starting to die down.

 

[Interwebz]

I would choose FMA over the rest. Naruto is good but not really good and Inuyasha is boring.

 

[Wandering Rhythmical Phoenix]

As much as I like Naruto, FA gets my vote. Inu, however OK it is, is repeditive...

That is enough to keep its popularity, but Naruto seems the most likely to keep up its popularity the longest. Not discredting the Fullmetal Alchemist, nor am I forgetting it, but just simply factor in that Naruto is just slightly more mainstream than Fullmetal Alchemist.

I think once Naruto's heavy filler season kicks in the US, we're gonna see a big decline in ratings. Bad enough fans aren't liking the fillers from Japanese airings to begin with.

True, and there are how many episodes to the filler arc now? What, at least over thirty that I know of. That might be the only time when we see Viz air the episodes of the fillers that are important (i.e. the immeadite three or four episodes after it begins since there is some information that is needed), then they will skip back to the plot for the television airing while releasing the fillers on uncut DVD's.

... Naw, that ain't gonna happen. I'm too damn hopeful.

...-cuss-

Making me choose between Naruto and Hagaren = down right evil.


...Heck... Hagaren(FMA), I guess.
Narutos a bit long...

 

[Justineer]

Fullmetal and Naruto are the most popular. InuYasha's seems to have died down quite abit in both Japan and the US.

It looks like you're right. Full Metal Alchemist is the clear winner right now; Naruto has less than half the votes of Full Metal Alchemist, and InuYasha has none!. You've got to wonder if the huge InuYasha fans now think it's boring, or are they just not saying anything.

 

[Flame Haze SnS]

I wish I could vote for all of them! They're my fave!

1. Naruto
2. FMA
3. Inu-Yasha

Considering the fact that Naruto is downright exactly similar to Dragon Ball Z in many ways? Right.

They're pretty similar, except that Naruto have almost 3-D fighting scene such as they're fighting while they rotating around (heck, I don't know what I'm talking about).
