lets see we have hayate the combat butler, sket dance, Beelzebub, blue exorcist, fairy tale, negima! and many others to fill in the gap. It's not going to be the end of the world people there are plenty of other IP's to take their place.

There are a ton of great manga already out there. If Bleach, Naruto, and One Piece did end they will just make a new manga to fit its spot and it could even be a better one.

@Jacktenstar I know that... Still, shit do happen, right?... Oda deserves to live AT LEAST 100 years, IMO

if they ended i would call for 911

Other series would be the new Big 3 probably something more deserving than Bleach or Naruto.

Nothing will happen to it whatsoever. The people who have hobbies in reading manga aren't going to disappear or anything. Manga didn't fall off a cliff when dbz and sailor moon was over. So it won't go away after bleach, one piece, and naruto end.

I really enjoy the Big3 mangas but there are also many other series which I enjoy and believe have the potential to become more popular:

(These are not necessarily all Shonen JUMP titles:)

- Gintama (even though Gintama has times of complete hiliarious randomness, Gin-san is a true shonen hero!)

- Beezebub (I look forward to the day Beel actually wears clothes >.> lol)

- Fairy Tail (is competing since the drop in popularity of Bleach, a movies gonna be made on it ---- I can see more coming)

- Ao no Exorcist (if only it became weekly!)

- Sket Dance (though it may not be long term as

- Nurarihyon no Mago (I love youkai , I hope that's not only me)

- Reborn (? I find it interesting how the author 'saved' the manga from its zany beginning because many new readers (without accessing any spoilers) have complained to me : 'Wtf is happening?!' or 'the art is crap' ----- it improves 7^3 times XD)

- Soul Eater (another monthly :'( )

- D. Gray Man (?) (if only it had regular releases, because of Hoshino-sensei's health)

My friend suggested very loudly: Prince of Tennis (!)
(plenty of other series which I did not mention yet because I am lazy and if you hate all these series, then ignore this and state your own~)


The mangas yet to be written and illustrated:

Who knows? The next Big3 may be mangas completely new.

By the way, the author duo of Death Note and Bakuman are creating a new manga which may start releasing on JUMP sooner or later --- after these two very different stories, I wonder what it'll be this time...

Loyal fans - the future of manga will not end :L



Sound familiar?

if that happens lets hope the little kids dont come watching ecchi shows

I don't think it will suddenly end all at once -- rather, people will just have to find new titles that they like. I for one am not reading any of the "Big Three" at the moment, instead enjoying the wonderful works "Blue Exorcist" and "Bakuman," and am going to be starting "Fairy Tail" shortly!

I think it's fine if they end, personally.
Better than stretching everything else with fillers and making the episodes crap.
It's the quality, not quantity, that makes an anime good.

I think that there is a need for fresh ideas in the industry. New titles that are directed at different age groups.But also a means of getting those new mangas a chance to be seen by consumers. I don't know maybe like a website that showcases new manga with a summary of what it's about without having you to pay just to get this review.

Some sites do offer a" teaser" of a certain manga to view and decide on but not nearly enough titles are shown. I don't like the idea of just having to guess whether or not I will like a manga or not. I don't have a unending cash flow for that.

Nothing it just means other series will have a chance to be read and appreciated

yup, agreed

Well it's better to end it when your on top. You don't want those manga's dieing a slow painful death do you?

Emptiness, pure emptiness....
