The great Greek and Roman philosophers loved to debate back then, and the internet junkies love to debate today. It’s a human impulse – to debate. Saying “it’s a matter of opinion” doesn’t help because there always has to be someone who’s right and someone who’s wrong. People can debate for the silliest things and for years and years, the debate can drag on without having a clear winner. But that’s just the way things are. And you can’t deny it, debates are really are fun and we all love it.

The start of the new millennium signaled the start of two of the greatest Shounen anime series since

Dragon Ball Z – Naruto and Bleach. Both anime series have accumulated millions of fans worldwide and, as expected, to these fans, saying that both anime series are good and both worth watching is just not enough. They have to know which is better.

So,Rreally, Which is Better – Naruto or Bleach?

Naruto and Bleach have similar main characters. They’re about adolescent boys who are both special, both somewhat dense but kind-hearted and gutsy, both insanely strong and can go against the strongest enemies, and both have a tendency to trash talk but still be able to give inspiring speeches. But while the main characters are similar, the plots are different. While Naruto is about ninjas, Bleach is more like an anime version of Ghost Busters. Both have their own appeal to fans. And really, it’s a matter of opinion whether the fan likes ninjas or anything related to the afterlife better.

Similarities and Differences

The execution of these series’ storylines also differs. Naruto spends more time developing its story and its characters than Bleach does. And while the flashbacks in Naruto can get a bit dragging for some people, especially the ones who watch for the fight scenes alone, they do leave us with more three dimensional characters and a more detailed storyline. When things happen, you know why they do because there’s a background. The progression of the story is logical. Bleach, on the other hand, is one big mash of plot twists that, though entertaining, really are just good for the shock factor.

Humor-wise, both are great. Both can have you clutching your stomach and rolling on the floor in insane laughter. However, Naruto’s humor is somewhat slapstick sometimes as compared to Bleach’s more refined and natural humor. But then, you have to consider that the characters in Naruto are mostly kids and are younger than the characters in Bleach (not considering Shippuden).

The fight scenes in Naruto are way more interesting because it dabbles more in strategy rather than just the simple clashing of swords. However, because there’s much strategy involved in Naruto’s fight scenes, you also get to hear a lot of long and winding explanations in between fights and this is something that the some fans who are in for the action dislike. Bleach’s fight scenes are also great and action-packed but are rather repetitive.

One edge that Bleach does have over Naruto is that its characters get a change of wardrobe every now and then. In Naruto, we see the same costume each and every day. It’s as if the characters have closets- full of the same clothes.

But overall, I’d say that Naruto wins over Bleach because Naruto is much more emotionally engaging. The Naruto episodes can evoke so much emotion in you that you’ll cry with the characters, laugh with them, and even go so much as to really love or really hate some of the characters. Bleach sort of had something similar in the beginning but the storyline started to deteriorate and you start to lose touch with connecting to the characters. With Naruto even with Naruto Shippuden you’re still able to ‘feel’, connect and understand the positions for the characters, and for me, that’s what makes a good anime. Not to mention that the storyline just gets better through each episode as you watch Naruto!

How many ways are there to play games online to pass the time, let me count the ways. Just kidding! But, I do consider myself an expert at wasting time by playing online games, though I am positive I am not the only one. Like many responsible family guys I have a job. And while there are days when I get right to work and seem to be able to work through the day without any distractions. Then there are those days when I find myself searching for a way to stay home so I can play games online. I’m sure I am not alone on this one either, am I people? Look, it’s not that I am lazy, but there are days I am totally restless and need to get my mind right with an online game or three. Okay, so it’s not very productive, but there are times when a guy’s sanity needs to come first.

As I’m sure you know, there are a plethora of sites to play online games, and when you are lucky enough to find one you enjoy, you may return to this same site many times to play, so make sure you bookmark it. The way some of these online games work with your computer can be a problem for some people. Some online game sites may require you to download something in order to play their online game, and if you are on what appears to be a trustworthy site, that might not be a problem. However, if you aren’t sure about the site and you have to download software in order to play the online game, then you might want to search for the game somewhere else that you trust.

Another factor you need to consider when you want to play on online game sites is the speed of your computer. While most online games do not demand from computer what store bought games do, you still can’t hope to play online games with a relic. If you have just started your computer up, and the game loads up quickly, you probably won’t have any problems. For some unknown reason, when things on your computer will lock up all on their own or you may have trouble loading up a game that normally plays just fine, try not to panic. While this can be confusing to you, you should know it is a common problem. First, try closing down your Internet browser and then opening a new one. If that doesn’t fix the problem, you may have to reboot your computer. It’s a major pain in the butt, but it usually fixes the problem. The things we go through just to play an online game so we can relax.

Occasionally, you may run into an online game site where you have to pay to play the online game of your choice. That’s a personal choice that you will need to make. Ultimately, it will depend on the online game and how badly you want to play it. The online games that require money to play are usually pretty inexpensive, and the games they offer are usually better. Sometimes, you may find a free version to play, but the free version may only be a free trial that might not have all of the levels of the game, and is missing other components of the game. Some of the online game sites may offer yearly memberships for you to play unlimited online games. It’s not a bad deal, but make sure they have enough games that you will like to play. Maybe I’ll run into you some day when we are supposed to be working and we will play games online together. Download Free Games at Movies, Music, Games & More.

That’s because malware can attach itself from the files that you are downloading and thus, infect your computer. If you don’t mind, then you can download without worries. But you might want to step back if you do not want to harm your computer.

The first method is to simply find a website that allows a direct download of the files. Some websites offer free downloads, but most websites need a subscription fee. Furthermore, you have to keep your computer on until the download finishes, which could be a disadvantage.

Use a BitTorrent Client. A BitTorrent Client is an application that allows you to share downloads with other users. The more users that download/seed the same file, the faster the download. After installing a BitTorrent Client, look for a torrent file. Websites such as Mininova.org offers thousands of torrent files for your use.

Find and use FTP websites that offer anime downloads. FTP websites allow you to download many files such as video files in a faster and a more secured way. But FTP websites usually ask for a subscription fee. But since it is a more secured method of downloading, you can worry less for malware such as viruses and Trojans that infects your computer.
