It's true 197 was somewhat good, but I still couldn't sit through it without skipping most of the parts in it.Quote:

EDIT
u know, i've been thinking and uh...i dun think that studio pierrot will stop releasing these lame naruto filler epi even though they've done quite enough of 'em to make us all sick~
Been a while since I have looked to see as to how the show is progressing, or in gotwoot, (moving to college and stuff). But it still seems like Naruto fillers are going. :(
I just wish a new episode title would be "this is not a filler , YAY!" or something along those lines.
In all honesty, after switching to the manga... I really don't care much about the animated version of it. However, when it does come around, I might give it a d/l just for the sake of seeing things in action.
i can say with confidence that you would not be alone... i hope the english version of events includes all the filler to put everyone else in the same sort of agony as us...
all those toonami watchers will be like... "ZOMG DOOD WTF WHENS THIS FILLER GONNA END" like around episode 175... and we can laugh at their agony as they come back at he release of every new episode and grow more impatient...
Ok, I'm not one who complains much about fillers, as a matter of a fact, I usually tell people to stop wasting peoples time when it come to nagging about fillers but the quality of the Bleach fillers vs Naruto fillers is making me write this. Maybe someone could clarify my thoughts
Ok, so... lets put it this way, naruto has been filling for nearly HALF the episodes that have been aired, almost approaching two years... TWO YEARS PEEPS!! In theses lines of episodes the writers could of actually planned to perhaps write up an entire new kind of a solid story without messing up the manga storyline, like hey maybe he could of gone on an insanely long mission or gone to spend some time at another village for a while. Instead of making a nice long solid filler story or two, they aired nothing but cut up garbage for almost an ENTIRE 2 YEARS!! You'd think that after that long they could of come up with something better for fillers. But, it's not just the storyline that sucks, notice how the quality of the drawing and music have completely gone to hell. Seriously, look at backgrounds and the effort they put into sound effects, I hope that they will go back to normal once the show goes back to the manga.
Take Bleach for example, I seriously didn't know that the Bountou storyline was even a filler until the very last episodes. But seriously... it was freaking great!! I hardly consider that season as a filler.
So i guess I want to know if people have an answer or a theory for the reason Naruto fillers were absolute shit.
it's easy they had monkeys typeing the scripts.
seriously though it's because they didnt really care anymore as long as they make a killing with the series. As long as money is comeing in they dont care what they are produceing thats why anime like kenshin gets taken out during fillers once they make there money they dont care if a series ends because of fillers.
Anyway this is pointless talking about it now since the series will start again in february. let us rejoice in the fact that fillers will end soon and not even think of the shit the Ape for brains directors flung at us.
I just realized something. I looked at the title of this thread, and finally, finally it seems to be the true thread of official countdown. Because finally we have a date, a number of the episode, when this hell of bad entertainment will end.
A time of joy is upon us.
yup and it's sure is about time fillers ended and we see shippu-den and maybe kakashi gaiden before it...:D :DQuote:

If you want a interesting laugh look back at the first pages of this thread.
When we all though it would end in the spring of this year. we were right, we were just off by a year :)
I may even watch this anime again once the fillers stop
Damn... I had been a GW member for five days, when this thread was created. And we are still waiting for the fillers to end.
Quite crazy indeed.
Ah yes, the good old days when we thought that the "Infiltrate Oro's Lair" filler would be the only one, and then right back to the manga... People still had hope during the Mizuki arc - then the horror started sinking in when we got the first utterly crappy filler with Raiga and the "curry of life". Man I better stop, it's traumatic to even remember filler history.Quote:

Deadfire is right... the first posts are funny.
Wow, its been like a year since I posted here...still no end in sight eh? I've since given up and moved on. Whatever number it was when Naruto and Sasuke finished their fight was the last time I watched this show. Is there a new rumored time when its supposed to end? I'm begining to think this shit won't end until the God awful English version catches up to the previously mentioned fight. Meh...back to life, later.
Please refer to the following thread:Quote:

Not sure what you want us to say. No new information.
Sometime in February is still it as far as I know.
there's a thread in the Open Discussion section that can give you more details, but there's also a list of upcoming anime stuff for 2007 to consult in This ThreadQuote:

ugh...finally
well at least now we don't have to go through such a long marathon of fillers. i mean i could really understand maybe like 4 fillers in a row...but seriously, the 1.7 yrs worth of episodes has been ridiculously and painfully long...
hopefully, the last few fillers are much better because part ii seems very promising...
I'm glad they put all these fillers in at once. Because it means once they get started again I don't have to worry about a bunch of tiny filler arcs that mess up the flow of the main story.
It's been a long hard road, but in the end it will hopefully be worth it.
In retrospect that manner of thinking is certainly valid. But still it was somewhat hard last spring when the deadline of the first rumour came and passed and nothing happened.
Just as long as they stay away from stupid fillers like that bull-ride to the stadium for the finals.. That was just annoying and uncalled for.
Haha, I didn't even realize that was filler. I do remember thinking at the time, "Hrm, that was pretty stupid."
43 days to the 'supposed' premiere of Naruto Shinpuden (or whatever you spell it)
=D almost there =]
So close, yet so far away.
"Naruto Shippuuden" ;)
A preview should be out in raw format soo, I hope at least! :D
Are you saying it's aired?
It won't air till February 15 (rumor).
'tis not a rumour anymore

yea i've seen that also, so it has to be 100% true now. Everything i have read on this has said 2/15 it ain't like before when we where getting a diffrent story everyday. They showed a little to much there, kinda spoilerish.
So last fillers will be in February 8, 2007 ???? damn i will miss those fillers....
and the real story will come back on February 15, 2007? hmm interesting...
lets wait and see..... 37 more days...
fair point indeed. the image that's referring to is right here, though. http://forums.narutofan.com/showthread.php?t=168425. translation's on the second page. (yes, i admit it, i lurk at narutofan)Quote:

This is Great. But what about the part in between will it ever be showned
The ending of the fillers is a government conspiracy. They know that millions, if not billions, will watch the premiere. They will then brainwash us using subliminal messaging about false facts such as 9/11, or saddam's link to al queda.
Yeah. I can totally see how false facts about 9/11 or Saddam's connections would make Naruto more popular.Quote:

Yeah. It's pretty unbelievable. Fillers have been running far longer than I've been registered here at Gotwoot. It's like an end of an era. In a good way.
I actually began to really read these forums around the time the fillers began, I think. The discussion threads back then were far more interesting than the filler episodes. Insults and complaints were so fresh in the beginning.
Does anyone know what the older chara's will look like. I am hoping a noticeable difference in age is shown in the new animations. I feel like right now, their abilities are way beyond their "looks" i.e. a bunch of 12 year olds. The only one I really feel is unaffected by this would probably be Gara -- he owns
Well, if you can't wait, there's always THIS thread ;)Quote:

Someone count the days from the start of this thread to the real end of the fillers?
The filler episodes are finally ending?
After 2 years we'll finally be able to watch Naruto the way it should have been watched? :)
i remember seeing on a magna chapter that the official end of fillers is at the 15th....true or not....that i don't know only time will tell....since today is the first of the month that means only 2 weeks remaining

Watch them.Quote:

Seems like this is a legitimate end date....figures. I waited so damn long without reading the manga...until about 2 weeks ago. Now I'm all caught up and the show's starting back up. I'm not complaining so much as lamenting my impatience for not waiting.
I'm a little scared though as to how long it will take them to catch back up though since I blew through the manga in only a few hours.
You don't have to watch them, but the last arc (eps. 216 - current) is actually pretty good. If you just had to watch something to tide you over until the 15th, that arc is the least annoying of the fillers IMO. Plus the next episode is the series end, so you probably should watch it as a nice lead-in to Naruto:Shippuden.Quote:

It's been so long since I came here my last login was like over half a year ago on May 26th 2006. It's nice to hear Naruto is starting up again finally though. :D
I'm glad fillers end this week. But what I don't get is how they're gonna finish it up because the new enemy didn't "die" yet. I'm hoping it'll end in a creative way and not the usual naruto rendan or like a kage bunshin + rasengan combo...
Wow can't believe the fillers are finally ending. I haven't watched Anime in over a year.
Yay! One more filler to go!
*dance of joy* :D
Now, the only thing that may remove that smile from my face, is something like this:
In the news of the 15th of febuary :
Naruto Shippuden won't start in 2007, but really in 2008. Our news writer apologize for his small mistake and hope you will enjoy, yet, another year of fillers with us.
The worst thing for me is that the first non-filler episode could potentially be quite boring assuming they stretch the first new chapter into an entire episode, but if they don't then..well some of you may piss your pants.
it's too late for me... i already pissed my pants when i saw the preview of episode 220 at the end of 219Quote:

First post, couldn't find any other threads via 'Search'.
I stopped looking at Naruto at ep 177 and my question is as follows:
Has there only been fillers since that?
Perish.............................
yes, and i believe the fillers end on the 15th of this monthQuote:

hahaha that would be quite funny and quite depressing at the same time. I'll probably say i'll stop watching Naruto forever if they do that but i know i'll be dragged back to watching those fillers like a masochist to a sadist. Well as far as we know, the fillers will end this week and the REAL story will being next week :)Quote:

Has the gotwoot-countdown reached '0' or would that be next week..?
Technically speaking Naruto itself has ended...can't say it ended with a bang :p
How long has it been already?
around 84 weeks
heemmm haven't watch naruto in a while and boy was that a good decisions. I am glad to hear that the series is finally getting back on track. Lets see if they can will actually do the series justice and resolve the pains that they have caused their fans. I hope that they don't water down the anime since it was licensed and is being offered to a younger market in the U.S.
Anyways I am glad to hear that it will be worth my time to watch naruto once again, but i think i won't pick up the series anytime soon. Maybe in a few months. It will be interesting to read some of your comments i am sure, for now that is enough.
Have fun guys and enjoy it. You all sure deserve it. IT'S BEEN TOO DAMN LONG. Lets hope that it was worth the wait, pain and heartbreak. Doubt it, but we can hope.
Ya, can't wait for this series to get back on track. Last time I watched this anime, some ninja used some butterfly jutsu to return from the dead =P That's when I knew it was time to back away. Looking forward to joining on the discussions once again here ^^
I stoped with the horrible star chakra arc. When you got chakra coming out of a characters ass you know the writers are really struggling.
But yeah it will be good to see how the handle all the really great fights we got coming up.
I hope they don't do to Naruto what they've done to Bleach. Bleach is being horribly censored and they've integrated filler story line into the manga story line.
Well unlike Bleach, there aren't really any filler stuff that they could incorporate into Shippuden. If there is any, it won't be that noticeable.
Well there's Hinata's new technique and Gaara's. Not to mention the whole paying back the favor to the sand thing.
For about the millionth time, we ask that you don't say the names of arcs or episodes or anything out of the manga. ...such a pain in the ass...
Warned.
masa
could you answer a question i have plz?are they gonna show the real i'm an idiot who can't follow the rules???(they had shown a filler one with the ten top battles if i remember well)
What new technique of gaara's? That spear thing?
Man, its been over a year and a half for me. I stopped watching after the first episode of Tony the Tiger.
The wait hasn't been too hard though, there has been the manga and other animes to follow along >.> :D

as far as getting back on track, it will continue where the manga left off. so, it WILL get back on track. the manga has been just, if not better, than what he was already seen. So, if you left off because of the fillers, and want to think about coming back, well, if you liked it before, then you should like it now.
Finally..the wait winds down. >.< Been so long since I've watched Naruto, will be nice to watch it again back on track.

Has anyone seen this little thing?

If only... if only... I only pray that nothing that happened in the fillers will actually appear in Shippuuden.
Edited the link, the link you provided redirected to a site with what's considered spoilers in this forum section
I don't neccessarily think I would've been fine with it all being a dream(I didn't watch it so I don't care really).
Something more plausible would be for him to get hit in the head and forget everything that happened over the craptastic fillers..
Finally this crap is going to be over. Like a lot of people I stopped watching Naruto after that Curry of Life crap, and I'm looking forward to the anime getting back on track.
But I suppose there was a silver lining to the Naruto fillers, as they made me (and no doubt others as well) go and discover Bleach and One Piece.
I'm so pumped now, 2 more days and I can start laughing at all the wrong speculations and the whining that the story isn't going the way people want it to (in addition to seeing lots of cool stuff that will probably look amazing in color and motion). Don't let the crappiness of the fillers dull your judgement or your teeth gotwoot! If you don't like it once the fillers are over speak out!!!!
Misa!!!! You're back!!! Best end to fillers ever \o/Quote:

Gaara used that Eyeball to cheat the exam.
He also used it to spy around the corner of a boulder when Kakashi was teaching Sasuke chidori.

Hm. No news regarding delayed subs or anything like that. Guess not even Dattebayo will make a joke about the end of the fillers.
..Finally!
Except that they already did in last weeks naruto sub.
the countdown ends now, at www.tokyotosho.com
...Thats if you like it RAW. I prefer mine to be more refined and delicate. The countdown continues for me (and many others) until a subbed version is released. DB usu. releases it by 12/12:30 so thats about 6 hours of waiting.
