Easiest and best martial arts?

What would be the easiest and best and fast martial arts to take to where I could get my black belt one day?

I plan to take martial arts myself. Would Karate be good? Maybe Shotokan Karate? Whatever form of Karate would be good, I'll gladly sign up for. Any recommendations?

It depends what you want. If it's physical fitness, any of them will work. If it's self defense, Krav Maga is a good choice as it's designed to neutralize the enemy as fast as possible.

The Asian martial arts can be very effective, but are based more on developing mental discipline through precision movements. So if that's what you're after, Tai Chi is perfect for that because it is the moves without the fighting.
