This is the point when I gave up Shippuuden >_>. So basically what happened in about half a chapter in the manga, took them a whole season to animate. Three Tails Bijou arc (Shippuuden 91 - 112) If you decide to skip it, make sure you watch the end of episode 71, because it introduces some new Akatsuki members and another Jinchuuriki. Nevertheless, I should note that I did hear some people say that this is the only decent Naruto filler arc. I personally only watched 2 or 3 episodes of this filler when it was nearing the end, but I wouldn't recommend anyone else to watch it. It should be noted that Naruto decided to never rely on the Kyuubi's power again because it hurt Sakura, yet here we have him transforming like no other in a filler. However, this effort generates a lot of powerconfusion and anticlimax to when Naruto first became 4-tailed Kyuubi. This whole arc is a ploy by the producers to give Kyuubi Naruto (and Asuma) more screen time. As a result, he is alienated by villagers and becomes another Gaara to Naruto. Sora's dad infused some excess Kyuubi chakra into him so he is a pseudo-Jinchuuriki (only interesting thing about him). Please save your time and do not watch these! I fell trap to about 1 season of this shit before I realized I'm basically watching nothing. This span of almost FOUR SEASONS are nothing but craps fillers!! It is a mix of pointless miniarcs and random shit like bug catching. Yes you read it right - 83 episodes of fillers.ĭO NOT WATCH THESE EPISODES!! =[[. Very underwhelming arc, don't watch it please. Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke find out their newest mission will be to protect Idate from attacks by the enemy clan, during a race. Thus, I will just list some reasons why I did NOT watch them haha and a short summary of them based on my limited knowledge. Unlike Bleach, I did not watch most of these Naruto filler arcs because they are so ridiculously stupid. The suggested advice would be to watch the last few minutes of last episode of filler arcs xP. Similarly, there are unimportant filler developments at the end of canon arcs.

Skip these episodes and watch all canon material! Naruto will be a lot more enjoyable =P.īecause the producers transitions between canon plot and filler plot, there are some important developments at the end of filler arcs.

Three Tails Bijou arc - episodes 91 - 112 Despite this, it is my goal to save watchers from non-canon material by listing the filler episodes that can skipped without missing any vital plot.

Innocent non-manga-reading Naruto watchers are misled into thinking they are watching canon material because the producers try so hard to transition between actual plot and filler plots. Bleach had roughly 3 arcs/seasons of fillers, but Naruto unfortunately has a lot more. Naruto is even worse than Bleach for fillers.
