A good question I make about this is... Why is important to make room for the material? "Because it will be a good adaptation" And it will be a bad one if they work with not so much chapters? "Yes it will be bad" Will that save an awful manga? Will this transform an awful manga into a good series? If not, then stop caring about faithful adaptations, for God's sake. The fidelity is not important for everyone. It's just wish-fullfillment for the fans. And no, the main audience is not the established fans. nor it has to be. I'd rather have a good anime loose adaptation for new fans than a faithful adaptation but sucky anime for everyone.
Everything doesn't HAVE to follow the manga 100% and I do agree that there be more liberties taken in anime. But even then there should be given breathing room between the manga and anime so the anime creators can have a good grasp on the source material and know how things play out.
I believe liberties should be made to improve upon the source material more, but it should still adapt everything in the manga.

Why are you trying to twist this into an argument against you? Answering your own opinion based questions for other people just makes you look stupid.
A good question I make about this is... Why is important to make room for the material?
Because if they make an anime with too little material to work with, the pacing slows down by stretching scenes or adding unnecessary flashbacks. More material means the studio can work more freely with what they're given instead of having to stretch 8 episodes worth of content into 12 episodes.

And it will be a bad one if they work with not so much chapters?
It won't be bad, but it would most likely be worse than if they waited for a larger pool of content for the reasons I stated above.

Will that save an awful manga? Will this transform an awful manga into a good series?
Yes, it could possibly make a manga who's pacing was too slow to be more enjoyable by speeding up the pace when adapting it. It's one of the reasons why people just switched to the manga after watching the anime, the pacing has slowed down to sometimes less than a chapter per episode. Bad pacing can ruin a manga/anime for someone.

If not, then stop caring about faithful adaptations, for God's sake. The fidelity is not important for everyone.
Are you serious? If the source material is great, then obviously people are going to want a faithful adaptation so that there is no risk of the great source material being brought down by an undeserved mediocre adaptation. There is literally nothing wrong with wanting a faithful adaptation.

I'd rather have a good anime loose adaptation for new fans than a faithful adaptation but sucky anime for everyone.
Just as there are great loose adaptations (like Kekkai Sensen), there's also "sucky" loose adaptations. This holds true for faithful adaptations as well. No need to be so narrow minded.

It's just wish-fullfillment for the fans.
Wouldn't loosely adapted anime just be wish fulfillment for you? Really makes you think...

I have a question, what would be the longest running single story arc in WSJ history? Other than HxH's hiatus arcs.

Akagi's 20 year long mahjong match has me curious.

Sorry I cannot see it... what's it ?
Bleach anime sequel. Hidaki Anno is also helping with production. The anime will have an original ending because BLEACH got axed since Shueisha hates Kubo and Bleach activist, JaymesHanson, will be assisting with production.

Bleach movie is also announced for 2019 with director, Hayao Miyazaki. It's his final movie then he's gonna retire for good.

I dunno about the longest, but isn't the ninja war arc in Naruto like 20+ volumes?

What about the Arancar arc in Bleach? That's like 27 volumes(unless you're splitting it up into sub-arcs).

Now that Hinomaru Zumou is around 50 chapters to end, I'd love to see an anime announcement that adapts it completely.

In 4 ot 5 chapters it will only end this current fight. There is still the final, which are 5 fights, as 4 chapters or 5 for each of them, that makes 25 chapters just to end this arc, and there is still that tournament to become pro, so... around 50 chapters.

Hoping for some anime announcements this year
Is this accurate? Didnt Onde Piece, Naruto and Toriko anime started, and not annonced, around that time instead? Wasnt Onde Piece anime announced at the same time as HxH? I believe so, and One Piece manga didnt started 1 year after HxH(around 48 chapters), bit more Like half(24 chapters).
And Toriko took around 3 years for the anime to start not being announced.
Also isnt Naruto Chapter 134 the Gamambunta figthing Gaara one? That is where the anime started not where the announcement was made, or was it?

So that they don't catch up with the manga and have to make a damn filler, that's why.

I only updated the list, but I double checked the more recent ones and it's accurate. I don't know about older series though
