Naruto Shippuden not fillering

If you've been following the series, which most of you haven't, its stopped fillering and has gotten back on track with the anime. What do you think of it?

I think its starting to get decent and may even turn itself around from its recent lameness. Other opinions?

I agree, especially with some big fights up ahead

and Finally we will see the End to Itachi

I like Itachi. Too bad he had to be a lame anti-hero. Fanficking unoriginal. >_>

He was cool when he killed clans for kicks and giggles.

are you telling me naruto was never lame?!?!?!

I think I am saying it might be getting back to the good side of Naruto. ^_^

there was a good side?

First 15 episodes, maybe.

hmmmm 15 episodes means eight hours max, I think I'll pass and watch eight episodes of the shield instead.

There was plenty good. After the first twenty episodes the show got pretty good.

Haven't been paying attention, so therefore I wouldn't know.

Useless post # 20

I thought the battles in the Chuunin exam were good (the ones like Gaara versus Lee, and naruto versus Kiba)


It started going downhill for me when they went to search for the New leader

Really?? I didn't think that whole "finding Tsunade" arc was that bad.

yeah, but, just before that and after that, there was nothing really good, I mean it would be cool to have had another mission like the zabuza one, where they face some really strong opponent and his sidekick who are both really strong and watch Sakura do nothing, Sasuke get his butt kicked, kakashi doing awesomeness, and naruto going kyuubi, because it is the only thing he could do at the time

Honestly I thought from the start of the Chuunin exam to the sasuke verse naruto fight it was going great.

And I didn't even dislike all of Shippuden. I thought Sakura verse Sasori was actually an interesting battle.

I thought the Zabuza arc was kind of lame. I know everyone loves it but I just couldn't get into it.

Don't feel all that left out. I didn't really like it much either. When I rewatched the series I skipped that whole thing, minus an epsode.

I don't blame you. It was just, not exciting. The Chuunin Exam was so much better.

The Mist Village arc caught my interest. And the one filler set that Idate Morino was in. Sasuke Retrieval Arc ruined it for me. I didn't even find the battle that interesting :/

that's why i prefer manga... its got no filler and it gets to the point faster in general...

Same here. Sometimes the Anime runs out of budget, and the manga has the details that the anime doesn't. Important details, sometimes too.

though there are some series' that the anime came first and is a lot better... a few examples: Shakugan no Shana, Zero no Tsukaima, Mai-HiME...

That's true. Tactics is like that. I saw a manga volume for The Nightmare Before Christmas, and really, I have no desire to read it. I'm just peachy with the movie.

but yeah... Naruto has hit an interesting point in the manga as well...

Like I said before... I haven't been paying attention xD I know a bunch of spoilers, and really... that's all I need :/

meh... spoilers don't give the same feeling as far as i'm concerned...

I have the first Shippuden volume... and i followed it in Shonen Jump, but that's it. It didn't interest me.
