I can fully relate.
My last fandom (Jackie Chan Adventures) showed what will likely be the series finale today. (The present 5th season did so terribly on ratings it was put on hiatus for six months, and only shown now as summer filler, and worse yet destroyed a lot of the fan love by marginalising the favourite characters and leaving massive plot holes) I sort of expected to be more depressed when it happened. I've devoted a lot of time over the past year or so to that series, commenting on fan forums, archiving episodes to my hard disc (TV card recording software is a tempermental mistress but when it works, the results are impressive), and now it's all over except post-game analysis and the late local news. But you know, really, all day, I haven't been thinking "No more Hak Foo", I've been thinking "How can I best justify a Nami x Arlong fanfic" :D
Perhaps OP can be your "rebound anime". :D I think for me the 'rebound' was the replacement series– the ShoPro dubbed MegaMan episodes-- and with OP I'm ready to truly love again. :)

I will replace YYH with Bleach. It's nearly the same show anyway. I am getting the first 151 episodes and 3 of the movies of One Piece from a friend of mine.
