Are you still watching Naruto?

I know I have. I just wanted to know how many people have stopped watching Naruto because of the fillers.

I used to look forward to Wednesday through whole week not any more.

Are u still watching Naruto just for tha sake of it?

I agree, Wednesday nights were looked forward to. Now, I am amped for Tuesdays (Bleach!) and no longer download any of the fillers. I stopped watching somewhere in the 'find-a-bug-that-can-find-Sasuke' filler. I think I'll wait till spring to pick Naruto back up; hopefully Bleach will not be in a filler stage so Tuesdays and Wednesdays will be fantastic!

I stopped watching the fillers at the Bikochu arc. Couldn't take it anymore.

Also, Jadugar, change the poll question. It's asking "are you still watching?" and you're asking "have you stopped?". A little confusing.

I keep watching. I enjoy making fun of the bad episodes. Also, I've been a fan for years, it would be lame to stop watching now.

@ Terra : I comend you on yur bravery.

@ XanBcoo : I also stopped after Bikochu arc.

Before I couldnt get enough of Naruto but watching these recent fillers I am thinking when will this episode end?

I watch the fillers when I'm bored or really want to subject myself to mindless nonsense.

I guess I'm just either really stubborn, really bored or really stupid...

However, I will say that I don't watch Naruto as religiously as I used to. By that I mean I used to anticipate the fansub release (usually Dattebayo), grab the DL ASAP, bite my nails while waiting, and then immediatley watch the episode. Basically, I couldn't wait to see the next episode. Now, with the filler, I delay watching them, sometimes for over a week and sometimes I just don't bother downloading them if I have something else to keep me occupied.

Yeah, I still watch it, but just casually

B4 it was like "sweet, naruto is out!" then id check the download every 15 min and watch it as soon as it was done, but now I watch whenever i have nothing else to do, usually a day or two after its been dled.

Still watching. By getting used to these fillers, I figure when the real action picks up again it'll be a jarring impact of coolness.

I'm also catching up to the events in Bleach. Long way to go, I'm at 26.

I still collect and watch 'em, but I read the manga and rewatch the old non-filler episodes frequently to make myself feel better. Sigh, if only they could animate them better, or have better storyline (I assume they can't do both, stupid filler creators probably can't walk and chew gum at the same time).

i still watch, but i only download the aone fansubs so it's been a while. but since it's all filler so far, i don't really mind waiting.

No, but im still going to collect them only if Aone keeps on subbing them ( just because no other group is relativley worth it to download). Once the story gets back on track, then thats a different story.

I quit watching the fillers, they are just too bad. Of course, when you compare ANYTHING after the Water Country arc to it, it looks bad. I could honestly say that the water country arc is probaly one of the best parts of any anime I have seen, the music, the story, the fighting, was just really well done. I will start watching again whenever the filler-marathon is over. I would almost rather one of FOX's horrible ideas then naruto, you know thats bad.

Ionno, the forest scene with konoha vs. sound 4 (5) was particularly bad ass...

I still watch the filler because its a break from one piece (which I'm catching up on) and on tuesdays I can't play WoW, because the servers are being maintained. Every once in awhile the filler is just fuck tastic tho. Episode 101 is still my favorite ever, and the naruto and the fake lee and gai was slightly amusing.

And it's not like I'm watching only Naruto; about 10/15 good series are fansubbed by now.

I started watching the series 3 weeks ago and I'm completely caught up with the exception of the movie and the specials. I'm really enjoying the series but these fillers are killing me....especially the current "Bird saga" filler. I'm not sure what's worse: the animation or the writing. Oh well....the good stuff will be an even bigger relief when it finally arrives.

Im taking a break from Naruto untill it goes back to the orginal story. I never liked the fillers so for me waiting is better then watching the fillers.

I agree with ShinobiNeko. The fillers are just a waste of time. I haven't downloaded Naruto since the end of the summer. I might end up watching them eventually, but during school I have limited free time and I don't want to spend it watching Naruto fillers, especially when there are so many other excellent animes that I could watch. For instance, I'm currently watching Kenshin and Monster on a weekly basis, and they are both on a level of awesomeness that far surpasses Naruto fillers.

My sentiments exactly. Why waist your time on fillers when you could spend it being really lazy?

I stopped watching Naruto and got into One Piece when the fillers started. Not worth the download, not even to get a few laughs. Perhaps I'll get back to it once they get back to the original story but One Piece reigns supreme.

I wonder... Will these fillers really be put into DVD....

"BRAND NEW NARUTO FILLER SEASON"
GREAT QUALITY
GREAT SOUND
CHEAP PRICE

Though are there actually some super hardcore fans out there that enjoy these episodes?

I stopped watching some time ago, and though I keep downloading the new eps I somehow havn't managed to get around to watching them. I think personally I won't see any Naruto until mid May at the earliest, since I will be revising for my final year uni exams that are in May. Oh well... guess I'll have like 40 eps to watch in one go after my degree is finished i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif.

The filers start on like... episode 136..

And I think they are going on until the end of the season, which is like episode 175.. o.O

It didnt take long for Naruto to catch up to the manga though, so I wonder what's going to happen. I stopped watching the filers for a few months, but I was too curious, and watched a few episodes.. MISTAKE -_-;;
