While I didn't like Naruto that much to begin with, it would have been an ok show if it had a normal number of episodes. However its just dragging on with no real purpose at this point.

It's tragic really.. The 'pointless' arcs where the story sucks is made up by other people.. Not by the Manga author.. They make up these 'filler arcs' to do just that.. Fill gaps so that the manga can be further ahead than the anime. They probably do this so that they won't run out of story.
I havent even watched the latest naruto eps because frankly the whole last arc I felt was just garbage.. I still love Naruto.. It started out great.. It's got an awesome base world.. Great characters.. It's a really good story too.. But you can just tell when they deviate from the manga..
It winds up being a pointless adventure where they do nothing in the end for no reason, and it really hurts the series more than anything.. It causes people like me to quit watching it and turns us off from buying it.
They (I believe) said that the rest of the season for Naruto would be filler.. That sucks.. But not much we can do about it except wait..
They were wise with Bleach.. They are staying true to the manga.. Naruto should have done that.. The series would be probably one of the best if they had..
I hope they learn from their mistakes.. A steaming pile of crap called Naruto is just a steaming pile of crap called Naruto.. Your viewers aren't idiots, and don't appreciate crappy plot lines. Take your time and do it right.. Even if you have to wait for a season to pass .. I'd rather wait than have steaming filler crap.

Id have to agree with cadd. I mean:
SPOILERS
Quote: I was so looking forward to see the anime of when season 2 of naruto starts (when he leaves to train with jiraiya for a while and gets a new outfit). But now all it is is full of fillers. Stupid fillers. Like that whole thing with mizuki and the false potion for orochimarus true power. That was a comeplete and utter waste of time. The fillers are just ruining the series, and they need to stop. The fillers are actually the reason I stopped watching naruto for a while .

[spoiler:c610507cfd]its boring, cuz sasuke left! the fillers arent that bad, to be hon[/spoiler:c610507cfd]est I find fillers amusing, because it invovles the same characters, but taking a break from the storyline, which makes the series longer!

it gets pretty boring, cuz one fight can take several episodes to finish, and the plot is totally stretched out, so this series will probably never end -_-

I think the reason Naruto got boring was because sasuke left.It just hadn't been the same with out him.I was wondering if anybody knew if he would be rescued and get the curse mark off.

Poor poor series.. .. Hmm. Well, that's actually for you to answer if you think about it. It may be that the plot is boring, or that you got sick of it or something o.o;. But yea, lots of people like Naruto still and love watching it and stuff. I admit it did get a bit boring for me which is why I started writing my own version of it on FF.net. Like the characters for it is awsome, but the plot just kind of plummeted for me. So yea. And I basically know a lot of stuff about it because I researched it (I know! I'm a cheater! >.< ). I got my filthy, cheating hands on all the spoilers I could get.... eh heh.
Spoiler!! (kinda)

Naruto got boring due to the lack of plot and degrade in art during the fillers in my opinion.
@ squid
Spoiler on naruto becoming hokage question and some more
Quote: This is based on speculation but naruto might be a hokage already. This might come as no surprise that naruto might be yongdai. So far the similarities that can be pointed are that both have yellow hair, blue eyes and same element (ie wind).
@ Angel
I doubt sasuke can put life into the fillers unless you are a sasuke-fanatic
Spoiler on sasuke and a whole lot more
Quote: This is also based on speculation but he might turn out fine. Sasuke left to obtain power to kill itachi but he might not want to later. Itachi killed every uchiha except sasuke and he wants sasuke to become more powerful by hating him. There must be a reason why Itachi butchered his clan and spared sasuke. I speculate that it was akatsuki that blackmailed or threatened Itachi to eliminate his clan. Itachi might've negotiated with akatsuki in order to spare sasuke and he wants sasuke to stop him and akatsuki by becoming stronger through any means. Itachi grew up with sasuke so he should know that hatred fuels sasuke's thirst for power easiest since sasuke envied the attention that Itachi got when they were young. Perhaps after knowing his brother's end of the story, sasuke will then lose his motive to join forces with orochimaru but orochimaru still wants sasuke's body. Naruto will then pop up and help sasuke escape from orochimaru's clucthes. Sasuke has a new unknown ninjutsu which i speculate to be fire elemental. Naruto's new ninjutsu fuuton: rasen shuriken is wind elemental and powers up sasuke's fire ninjustu through naruto lore.
Another link to sasuke's survivability is the 'tama' that Asuma talks about. I speculate that the 'tama' refers to Naruto and sasuke which makes the battle between naruto and sasuke at the waterfalls where there are 2 hokage statues more significant. Naruto and sasuke must survive to lead Konoha as symbolised by the importance of 'tama' in a chess game.

Thank,you soo much for clearing what Sjay_ said. I been so down when i found what Sjay_ spoiler ment *I was even crying*. Thanks again for clearing it up for me. I'm so happy*yah yah woo woo*
I still think the filler would be much better wit sasuke in cause the episodes he is in are awsome.

The fillers. I only ever watched 1 filler arc that was any good.
And I think maybe they need to lighten up a bit with the fights. So far the Shippuden is very dark.

In the beginning the episodes where interesting and fun to watch, but as soon as Sasuke started to disappear, and that went on for who knows how long, it went boring. Also the whole storyline went just boring, to many fillers and no real story or more then one story.

i think one of the reasons why naruto on past episodes are boring because some of the episodes have no meaning or the episodes are similar to each other..the stories & the way they fight..etc
and like dragon ball saga...the episodes took so long to end..
but for now, as my friend told me some of the latest happening about the naruto saga..it is exciting because soon naruto & sasuke will soon to meet & to realize the importance of friendship...tssssssss

Yes that is true but I feel like the new naruto will inevitably end up with a filler finish.

Considering they are doing one chapter an episode, the episodes seem fillerish even when they are not! Just dump the anime and read the manga - it just keeps getting better. And if it goes like this I feel that Naruto just might END by the next 10-13 volumes.

It will take hell of a time for the anime to catch up with the manga,two years I reckon.The manga is at a stage where it cannot get better than this.Stunning Revelations,deaths,powerful adversaries and villains,Naruto manga has reached an altogether different level.Considering the number of opponents still left to be vanquished,it would take another year or two for the manga to get over.I have a feeling that something major is about to happen,a major death maybe.

I agree I've had that feeling too, but as long as it's not my sasuke I don't care who dies and stuff.

even the fight scene that its part way through now is being dragged on. it really does suck but i refuse to quite watching it for one reson: i have a bet with a friend on who will stop watching it 1st. £20 is riding on my watching of an anime that i like(ish) so no complaints

I love Naruto. I love the evolution of it. I love how it keeps going because I've been a die hard fan since I first read the manga. It's fight scenes do go on for too long, but its a hell of a lot better than the bleach filler episodes. God they are the worst thing ever. The animation is getting better, the enemies are getting more powerful and creative, and I still believe that there are bound to be at least a few amazing battles with Sasuke. He was cool, but he was a winey emo bitch. Long live episode 133 and the animator's mastery of space and depth
Don't spend so much time giving negative opinions. Just say how much you love your own anime.

Episodes became boring. I quitted watching around episode 40 I believe. It went on to long. Just like with DBZ with some sagas, the fights where endless and nothing happened. I am going to watch the second season of Naruto, and see if it is any better. I hope it is, all those fillers and meaningless episodes in season I where ruining fun.

I am sorry to disappoint you,the second season is very slow and in fact slower than season 1.It covers only one chapter of manga per episode and considering where the manga is at the moment it would tkae some time more than one year to catch up with it.Secondly,if you do not watch season 1 atleast upto episode 135 before the fillers set in,you would not be able to follow anything since lot of major happenings take place.And right now where the manga is,many incidents,deaths etc have occured.I do not intend to watch Naruto Shippuden,since I am regular with the manga.

I used to love naruto but that like 100 filler arch BS made me completely lose intrest. Plus now everything takes twice as long as it should to happen, barely anything gets done per episode.
