It makes me happy when a longer series grabs my attention, though! SEE: my ongoing love affair with GetBackers, all the way to v39. Even now, I'm a little sad that it didn't go on longer, despite all the massive amounts of shounen-style fights and exposition that got flung around like candy.
Then there's tactics, but v10 isn't even listed on Amazon JP yet. :(
... but for the nmost part, yes, I do much better with character-driven series. I think it's because a lot of times, people don't really seem to be thinking through their BIG PLOT other than "here is point A!" and "there is point Z!" and "let's make shit up as long as it gets us from A to Z!"

Maybe I'm too picky. :(
