Is there such thing as where a filler character from Anime Only, makes it into the Manga as a semi important character?

I want to say Utakata the former 6 tails jinchiriki, but that requires further confirmation on my part

Note: I only watch Anime until recently yea I only know the whole Tobi thing.

Utakata became a manga character but i don't think there's another example really, i've seen the whole anime (part 2).

I think Utakata was the only really good example of this. He was never in the manga until the war, but the anime obviously showed him earlier then that. I honestly cant think of anyone else.

What....?

I think he's the only one that went from a filler to the manga.


The creator of One Piece, if they make a filler character with special powers, and he wants to use that power later on in the manga, He won't let them use it as a filler.


Not sure if Kishi does the same. The filler character has had some badass tech that would be nice in the manga.

Utakata was first on top page of some Manga (with all other Jinchuurikis) BEFORE he was in Anime
