In my opinion they are terrible! Poorly written and a lot of them make no sense. On top if this there are too many! In comparison to the other HST members:
Naruto and Shippuden fillers:
P1
26,97,101-106,127-140,143-219
Total: 96/220
P2
57-70,91-112,144-151,170,171,176-196,223-242,257-260,271,279-281,284-295,303-320
Total:117/326
Total eps: 546 thus far
Total fillers: 213/546

Bleach fillers( also terrible but the filler quality is decent ):
33,50,64-108,128-137,147-149,168-189,204,205,213,214,227-264,303-305,311-341
Total:139/367

One piece fillers( also decent and watchable ):
43-51,54-61,98,99,101,102,131-143,196-206,203-206,220-226,279-283,317-319,326-336,382-384,406,407,426-429,453-458,493-505
Total:91/608

So basically why are the animators so crap at pacing and making watchable fillers!?

They have to make a completely new story within someone else's universe, that they probably don't give a shit about.

Naruto has terrible fillers.
Not to mention that season 5 of shippuden was all fillers.

You mean like the one we had not long ago about that little annoying ***** that kept crying that Naruto and his friend apparently meet when they were young ?

Naruto is the only anime I was able to skip like 5 episode streak (During that whole bs episode we got right before Madara was suppose to show up) despite knowing their existence and had the time to watch them.

Bleach fillers aren't that bad tbh.
Well, the Kageroza filler wasn't.

it like this. naruto has 4 tails mode, rashen shuriken, sennin moode. he beat, orochimaru, kakuzu and pain.

in a filler a random fodder appears. suddenly naruto cant use any of the things above, only kage bunshin and normal rasengan.
what happends? random fodder filler guy beats naruto !! and he can only be defeated via talk no jutsu about friendship and this cr@p

Thus the saying that ..."Fillers are thrash....but those that create them are worse than...."

I do love some of them though :yayy:

They're bad and unwatchable. Although i do love some of the fillers. Like the one with Sora.

One piece fillers are actually watchable. Bleach fillers suck ass. Fairy Tail is the one with the best fillers.

Naruto: For the most part....they are either hit or miss...most of the Naruto fillers in Part I were interesting as they felt like how Naruto's life would be. Mission after Mission.

Part II's filler arcs that were war related weren't bad...they usually suffered mostly poor animation or poor voicing (I swear sometimes they send different voice actors into them). Some of the Filler Arcs are ok.

Bleach: The filler arcs in bleach are just horribly placed...honestly. In the middle of Aizen's invasion, and suddenly we are fighting Bounts, Mod Souls, or any other enemy Kubo cares to toss out.

One Piece: Honestly...I ENJOY their fillers. The G-8 filler was fantastic IMO! Everyone felt very in character, and the placing of it was virtually perfect. And with One Piece's style, fillers can be easily accommodated into the story.

Percentage wise naruto and bleach are pretty much the same

Nope. Percentage of which episodes are fillers rounded in whole numbers:
Naruto P1 and P2:41%
Bleach:37%
Doesn't seem like much but when there are huge numbers of episodes there's actually quite a big difference

It's not that their are done in poor taste and lack of good timing, it's that they detract from the main story so much that at some point you just stop watching the anime and stick with the manga.
