How do you feel about filler in Anime?

[AutistSupremacist]

I revisited Naruto earlier and realized that there are stupid levels of filler. Most are negligible but some are really enjoyable especially when they give light to the underused characters.

I skip Naruto fillers. Nobody ain't got time for that

Not a big fan of it

Naruto fillers are fine when they're not an arc in and of themselves.

One of the greatest DBZ episodes was anime-only filler

I haven't watched shounenslop since I was a kid, so I don't deal with it quite often. Monster had a bunch though

Black clover had some filler and it was shit,never watched Naruto. In general,filler was fine to me before but I got burnt out of anime and then it was just boring asf

 

[Deleted Member 8090]

I only watch stuff with a few seasons, if something has like 10 seasons then it's just dragging on

Filler episodes by definition are episodes where the events transpiring are absent in the source material. Monster however has been faithful to the manga in its entirety

Then the manga itself had filler arcs, because there's a bunch of shit unrelated to the story that isn't brought up again, like the former mercenary with the adopted Vietnamese refugee girl. I didn't find the filler in Monster to be that offensive, though. seen way worse

Those are all by definition "canon". Irrelevant to the primary plotline, yes. But canon nonetheless. From what I could infer from the anime analysts on jewtube, those episodes served to humanize Tenma and add some obscure layers to the theme of the main story and other characters or something along those lines. Yeah but they were executed pretty well regardless.

Kek. None of us know what was going through urasawa's head. He does this in his other mangas too.

 

[SmhChan]

I'd take Naruto fillers over most modern anime.

 

[kaijicel]

I didnt know what filler was when i watched naruto and im happy about it.

only thing that matters is if the anime is good, doesnt matter filler or canon

 

[Dr. Butane]

I grew out of that, Pokemon was one big filler. What kid is going to pay attention to actual story?

 

[smegma producer]

filler suck most of the time, on rare occasions is ok
