Was the last time a Naruto episode aired that was tied to the official manga/arc.

Hard to believe it's already been over a year of filler.

Ha, ha!

I havent watched an episode in months...I need to catch up.

[M'k'n'zy]

You havent missed much.

You can basically get up to 135 and not bother watching another one and miss nothing. Each arc and/or episode(s) has been like a bad movie or OAV. There can be no character development since they can't have it if it's not tied to the manga. Without the development, it's just empty. Not to mention the idiotic ideas Tokyopop is coming up with (cooking, courier ninjas and Ino pretending to be a princess on a mission were fucking ridiculous).

If I didn't know this was filler and the kick-ass stuff is coming up, I would have stopped watching the show. It's really a shadow of its former self right now. I'm just keeping up for something to do and just in case they actually have a half-decent filler ep for once.

Makes me glad I stopped around episode 120

Bleach, on the other hand, still rocks

[M'k'n'zy]

Tessian, I think that most people who are reading the manga on a weekly basis will have a hard time agreeing with you. Myself included, I have not been very impressed with the filler. Its not as bad as Naruto's, but I keep praying for when it will end.

Man, there are some awesome episodes between 120 and 135. You missed Naruto vs Sasuke for cryin' out loud! They'd spend the entire series building that one up. Just watch up to 135, you won't be disappointed

[Zeus]

Dear LORD 193 was bad. When you're longing for courier-ninja level episodes, you know the filler's gotten bad

[Eric]

I download the filler skip to the last minute just to find out if it's gonna end the next episode then delete it.

If I see one more post whining about Naruto filler, I'm going to hunt you all down and beat you senseless.

DON'T WATCH IT!!!!!! WATCH SOMETHING GOOD INSTEAD!!!!!

Rent Grave of the Fireflies. Or Battle Angel Alita. Or Spirited Away. Or *something*, anything, that's not Naruto filler that you then come back here and whine about...

I own Fireflies and Spirited Away :-)

I have been. But I keep up with Naruto out of force of habit. I just have to vent at its shittiness every once in a while

[M'k'n'zy]

I keep up with about 10 diffrent shows right now, including Naruto. I dont want there to be any risk of me missing when it goes back to real storyline.
