Should i watch fillers

So I think if there is an anime in which you feel you should be skipping episodes chances are it's a bad anime and you shouldn't be watching it in the first place.

I am looking at you Naruto Shippuden. If I haven't dropped it already I will watch the fillers. By the time I realize that an episode is a filler, I'm already halfway in so I just watch it all. So yes I watch fillers. I wonder if there's a anime, where the whole thing is a filler. Depends, some fillers are good, some are crap.

I usually find out if they are worth watching beforehand, or if they add to the story. If they don't add to the story they need to be entertaining, otherwise I'll just skip them, sif wasting precious good anime viewing time lol. It's one of the primary reasons I haven't done long running shounen in a while. Adding a title to my list and rating it without watching everything would make me feel dirty and at the same time I don't want to sit through another episodes of boring arcs like I did with Naruto.

I usually watch fillers, but Naruto is an exception. Just yesterday I skipped about 20 episodes and I've got absolutely no regrets about it. I mean, why should I bother watching something I know I won't enjoy just to have a feel of completeness? Screw that, I got better things to do Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?

Is it better than Breaking Bad? Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it? Has it caused a very entertaining shitstorm on MAL? Is it actually good? Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant It all depends on the anime. If it is Naruto or Bleach fillers I would skip them as they have so many episodes. For One piece and fairy tail I would watch them as I enjoy the anime hehe.

I can't stand recaps and watching some anime twice though. Watch all of it since it's a part of the anime. I've always skipped the fillers in Naruto and Bleach, because they lack the same quality as the original story. I did watch one filler arc in Naruto though - and enjoyed it a lot..

Don't remember with it was :P. Depends on the anime for me. Shocked Offline Joined: Jan Posts: Mushmallow Offline Joined: Apr Posts: I try to skip anime that have a lot of fillers BBCode an egomaniac and a fool.

Also, the villain, Raiga Kurosuki, was received very well by fans and even became canon later on, as he was introduced in the manga in The Onbaa started causing havoc wherever Naruto goes.

Tsunade mentions that Jiraiya once went on an expedition when they were kids to find the Onbaa. The Onbaa continues to increase in size, eventually becoming larger than Naruto himself. The child manages to calm the mother, and the two leave.

As Naruto returns to the village, most of the inhabitants have Onbaa on their backs, something Naruto finds absolutely hilarious and advises Tsunade to fight the Onbaa as Jiraiya said. On their way, they encounter an old woman who is leaving town who gives them a suspicious warning. While guarding the man and trying to prevent him from laughing, Shino eats dinner first to prevent any poison from entering their host because his insects will neutralize the poison.

Naruto was forced to stand in for Shino. Shino later threatens Naruto not to ever tell anyone that he made a joke.

Rationale: The next episode is also a filler but we definitely think you should give it a go. She is hesitant to appear to him in person, thinking that she looks unattractive because she is overweight as a result of bingeing on snacks to relieve stress.

His interference upsets Ino and Fuku, and accidentally reveals her as the real princess. It is revealed that the prince likes chubby women, and Ino is unable to comprehend why. Rationale: As it is the case with most Naruto filler episodes, a good filler is usually very funny. Episode is an example of a very funny episode that we think you should watch.

It is very entertaining and while it did frustrate Naruto, it should make you laugh. Synopsis: Kakashi is shown investigating the Takumi Village. His ninja dogs found that the village was deserted and that the body of their founder was taken from its grave. Rationale: This is the last good filler arc from the original Naruto series.

It provides a fairly interesting plot with a good villain, but what it does best is examine the Gaara character, providing us with some nice action. And this concludes our list of the Naruto filler episodes that are worth watching. Here is the list of Naruto: Shippuden filler episodes worth watching with some simple reasons as to why you should do so:. Their attempts proved insufficient, however, and the beast created a large tidal wave to wash its attackers away.

They engage in battle with Guren and Shino sends back one of his crystallized bugs. Then Tsunade sends Yamato, Sai, and Sakura to help them along with Naruto who meets them along the way. Team Kakashi and Kurenai follow Guren and discover that the thing they were after was the Three-Tails.

Rationale: Shippuden has more good fillers than Naruto and they are really based on the quality of content, unlike the initial fillers, which were mostly filled with good humor.

This is a relatively long filler arc, but it has a good and gripping story, as well as a great villain, Three-Tails, which is great for a filler arc.

Synopsis: During the reign of the Second Hokage, Jiraiya, Tsunade and Orochimaru are placed in a squad under Hiruzen Sarutobi, who conducts a bell test with the trio. This arc gets points for having decent writing and doing what fillers should do: It fills the gaps. It's interesting to see how the second Chunin Exams go and to see how the Akatsuki play into the story. The biggest drawback and the reason why a lot of people skip this arc is that it is placed right in the middle of the War Arc , severely halting the pacing of the main story.

This is one of two arcs that delves into the capture of one of the tailed beasts by the Akatsuki. This is the one to skip. The Manga goes into this story, but only slightly. The anime really draws the story out, and there isn't much else to it. The only redeeming part is that Naruto uses an awesome ninjutsu that is never seen again.

Skip the rest of the arc. This is the better of the two tailed-beast filler arcs for many reasons, but chiefly because it does everything the three-tail arc did but better. It's a story about a master and their student, which is fitting seeing how this story comes right at the death of Jiraiya.

Though the story is a bit of a sidetrack to the main plot, it still justifies itself with amazing writing and animation. It's also very tight and moves quickly as it only contains eight episodes. Compare this to the three-tail arc and it's an obvious choice on which one to watch.

This arc gives the show the ultimate examples of stories that just do not matter. This arc was comprised of a smattering of random side characters living out their perfect reality in the Infinite Tsukuyomi. Kid Goku does have a chance to beat Deku. But, the biggest factor is, Saitama is the strongest being in his universe. There is a huge chance he could beat All Might with just one punch.
