And we thought they couldn't sink any lower.....until they added the boxing kangaroo and the ninja anteater to the group.

Your place for discussion about RPGs, gaming, music, movies, anime, computers, sports, and any other stuff we care to talk about...
Seriously, a ninja ostrich?
- Your favorite band sucks, and you have terrible taste in movies.
As bad as Naruto's filler can be at times, remember that it's not nearly as bad as Bleach's, and that Naruto's horrible filler doesn't cross over into the main storyline like Bleach's did.

Thankfully they do keep it separate. But c'mon, a ninja ostrich that just happens to have a boxing kangaroo (to battle Rock) and a ninja anteater (for Shino) with him? Seriously? That's some serious shark jumping when it comes to the filler. Almost makes you yearn for more Aoi arcs......

There's precedence for it, Kakashi has talking ninja dogs, and so does Kira's family. Naruto obviously has the frogs, and the frogs actually fight too, as well as Tsunade who uses slugs.
Be happy it was just a single episode!

This fucking filler won't end.....and there's no reason for it to exist. They're what, 2 years behind the manga? Geez, give us the good stuff and stop milking it

It's only 65 chapters behind, so a year and some change, you cover that pretty quickly in animation.
Reading this makes me happy I only read the Manga.
Pfft, you are clearly jealous, I can see the envy dripping in your...text.
I'm glad I stopped paying attention altogether to Bleach and Naruto years ago :P
When it's not filler, Naruto is awesome again after the fucking inner-ep filler shit in the first two arcs. Problem is, they're on filler as much as they're not right now, it's irritating. They're just over-milking it

QFT. Just watch the first 100 episodes of both and then drop it like a bitch.Shrinweck wrote:I'm glad I stopped paying attention altogether to Bleach and Naruto years ago
Rosalina: But you didn't.
Robert: But I DON'T.
Rosalina: You sure that's right?
Robert: I was going to HAVE told you they'd come?
Rosalina: No.
Robert: The subjunctive?
Rosalina: That's not the subjunctive.
Robert: I don't think the syntax has been invented yet.

From the Asuma-Shikamaru arc on, non-filler Naruto is as good or better as it's ever been.....if you put the effort to sift through the filler, that isSineSwiper wrote:QFT.

That's actually the arc in the manga that I stopped on lol
Sasuke vs Itachi, Jiraiya vs Pain, Hebi vs Hachibi, and the Fall of Konoha arcs are quite good, actually. If anything, Shippuuden got stronger after that arc (filler not included, of course)Shrinweck wrote:That's actually the arc in the manga that I stopped on lol

My taste in manga just shifted away from fighting stuff like HxH, OP, Naruto, Bleach, etc. I mostly only read comedy and mystery stuff now. Speaking of which I really need to reread Monster.

Oh. Fuck yeah. Didn't know it was still going but the bit of the anime I saw was amaaaazing.
The anime is only 69 eps. I think it ended about 4 or 5 years ago now.Shrinweck wrote:Oh. Fuck yeah. Didn't know it was still going but the bit of the anime I saw was amaaaazing.
It was one of those animes that I tried on someone's recommendation even though it sounded so stupid. But it's quite entertaining and is one of my favs
