What's wrong with Fillers?

[jamarcusp17]

I'm trying to understand why people disregard anything that's done in the fillers and state that only things in the manga are fact. Did Masashi Kishimoto (and the other writers, if there are any) say that statements made and actions done in the fillers should be disregarded because they aren't facts?

Why do a lot of people ignore things that are done in fillers?

They aren't canon. They don't progress the actual story.

 

[lndra]

They give false interpretations of characters

Let me ask you a question, hopefully you get the point. If you went to a five star resturaunt to pay 700$ for one slice of red velvet cake, then went to another resturaunt and got a big red velvet cake for free, which would you prefer?

It easy. Manga authors start with manga and heavily involve with it until finish where anime was done by other party that done a deal with manga authors. But still those manga authors not doing any animation story but their own manga.

They maybe giving some idea to animation studio but thats all. They dont have much time to support Studio with idea when their manga still had a lot of works to be settle.

Animation Studio like to add a story that never happen inside manga and not under authors idea.

Filler only valid to be canon if author wrote the story line or telling the readers that one part of story is inside manga and the other part is inside anime(filler)

Because fillers ruins everything. They had to rewrite the scene of naruto and the bijuus because the anime fked up big time.

What's wrong with fillers is they're getting annoying af

We are discussing about a single story here mean it need to come from single source(the original one) and not various source. Manga/anime/novel.

Kishi never talking about Spin off of his series. Spin off can be consider as canon like FT spin off if it not contradict actual story line.

This is manga story or industry and not comic story or industry.

Depending on the filler, it can be positive, negative, or REALLY negative. Uzumaki Khan had a point when he was watching the Kaguya backstory filler. We need this episode, because she is the final villain and we had very little substance on why we should care for her as a final villain. Essentially, this filler is filling in the holes Kishimoto left. So this is an example of positive filler.

On the flipside, we have negative filler which does nothing to supplement the lore of the Narutoverse. We're talking Mecha-Naruto, Ninja Ostrich, and the dreaded Pre-Shippuden Filler Arc. This is filler we as a fanbase can do without.

Some fillers are ok. Like this most recent one with Kaguya or the Itachi Filler that past. These really didn't impact the core (conon) of the story and add a bit of extra content that was missing from the canon. Others like the Sora Arc have no real relevance to the story and take away from it. Fillers all and all wouldn't be bad if we didn't have to spends months at a time watching them.

 

[Obito the supreme jin]

They basically contradict to what has been stated in the manga and these fillers are a waste of time to the good cannon interpretations. They also give a false representation of the chracter. SP's tendency is to exaggerate.

It can be positive fller minus the animation(The reason I'm not into Naruto anime) but I cant accept that filler as canon and telling people Tenji is Hago and Hamura's father everywhere and its a fact. Bcus Kishi never tells us.

Another source of canon fact is DB minus hyperbole.

If we take filler just as anime extra content, its OK but if people say filler is canon bcus it fills a gap left by manga, its wrong

If the author has the apathy and/or forgetfulness to include lore about a final villain that could be crucial in making emotional connections to said final villain, and the inclusion of this lore does not contradict the hole in the manga, it's fair game.

I dont feel any connection at all with that lore. I admit I'm Kaguya fan but that lore not wrote by Kishi but SP.

I could't care less about it.

 

[roark]

naruto is not a story with filler, but a filler with story, and this is problematic.

Also, there's a lot of things that contradict the manga.

The real plot is always the original story written by the author, so mangas, books, etc... are always the canon story. Movies, series, animes and other adaptations can be made based on it, and if they are better or worse than the original story don't make it more or less canon.

Nothing is wrong with fillers it's the threads based on those fillers are

Kaguya fillers aren't irrelevant they're important and must be watched
