I personally liked the One Piece manga. The only reason I don't buy the graphic novels is because I'm too cheap to buy what I already own in Jump.
That's cool. With tank prices as disgustingly high as they are in the States I would do the same if I had to rely on those versions.

Comedy Beet the Vandal Buster option. (I actually like this one though)

Bleach seems to really have some potential.

http://www.animenation.net/news/askjohn.php?id=944 is a good analysis on why Naruto seems to be more popular than One Piece here in America. And while I don't really enjoy admiting to "fitting a mold" or whatever, it's pretty much the reason why I like Naruto loads more than One Piece.

^^Yea, I think I can agree with that. I can never really get into One Peice, and that 'relating to the characters' argument seems to really fit the bill.
Signatures are stupid and I wish there was a way to turn them off
edit- neato
