Long-standing romance-anime

Carnivus:
Well,long animes like Naruto,Pokemon,Bleach have all lost their initial purpose,and spinning off continously into fillers.The only thing that could make a long-lasting anime interesting over 300-400-500 episodes are countless romance sub-plots.Of course,no such anime truly exists,but what comes near it?

Tatsujin:
One Piece, if I am correct. There is a bunch of other ones like Nana (47 episodes). Anyways, if its long then it needs to be a very interesting series. Nana fell into that category. Really great series, you should give it a shot. Clannad is another one with season 1, 2 and a movie! I would also recommend Hayate no Gotoku as it stands on 52+ episodes (season 1) and season 2 is currently airing as of now! Da Capo is really big as well, with seasons 1 and 2 around 50+ episodes, Da Capo II around 26 episodes (S1+2) and the new OVA that was just released. Da Capo is making big cash so the series will keep going, to what I hear.

I like short series to keep things flowing. But if the series is "really really good" and I felt it was too short, then I'd get somewhat depressed ... An example would be Toradora! For a 25 episode series, ... I dunno, I wanted more. I'd love to see some sort of spin-off or a continuation of the character's life (focusing on Ryuji and Taiga mostly) like Clannad to Clannad ~AfterStory~. I also felt Lucky Star was short as well, and Kannagi (2nd season will resume, tho we don't know when). There's too many to list.

For a 300+ episode ... I wouldn't know what to recommend. You pretty much named some good and bad ones. I don't watch kids stuff (Pokemon). Naruto and Bleach and One Piece are on my list. I'm waiting till they finish. I got a bunch of seasons from them.

I know D.Gray Man is over 100+ episodes and it finished! You can either purchase it (Funimation, blah) or you can grab a torrent from some websites. I got mine from a private tracker, hehe!

Enjoy.

dbml:
Urusei Yatsura comes to mind. 190-something episodes. Haven't seen it personally, but I've only heard good things about it.

Lupin:
maison ikkoku - 96 episodes.
urusei yatsura - 193 episodes (?)
ranma 1/2 - 167 (?)

kureshii:
Touch, ~100eps. I'd recommend Ranma, if I didn't start getting bored of Rumiko Takahashi's penchant for repetition by Season 3.
