I watched Naruto up to the second season of Shippuden but every episode dragged to a crawling pace and I switched to the manga.

I watched Bleach up to after the mod soul filler arc but when the mod souls stuck around and kept interupting the main plot from moving forward I switched to the manga

I watched One piece up to one or two islands into the grandline but when some of the islands seemed to drag on and make little to no sense at all I swtiched to the manga

I got around to finishing the Naruto Manga, but I havent read Bleach or One Piece in about a year
