Why this filler arc, like the Kakashi arc, is great in my opinion.

I'll be there first to admit there's episodes of Naruto I haven't watched. Filler wise, I've watched the first few episodes of an Arc and realize that they have no relevance to the plot.

I've probably skipped a good 20-25 episodes. But much like the previous filler arc, this one serves as actual information filling. You can argue Canon/non-canon all you want, but all of us were curious about how everyone got to become chunnin and some Jounin. This actually fills in the plot that was part of Canon, just with stuff Kishi didn't have time to cover in the manga since there was a time skip.

Not to mention there's character development of Fuu who has been mostly a mystery since she's been introduced. And the refocus on the secondary characters that primarily have been ignored by pt 2 in general besides the occassional highlight.

I understand that we're missing out on some actual good parts of the war Arc but you have to hope they're working on making the last part of pt 2 memorable. The non filler parts of the end of pt 1 were done incredibly well for the most part so you only have to hope.

If only people can be open mind and accept the fact that these fillers ties in to the canonstoryline that help deepen and expand the characters and world of Naruto better than Kishi ever could. I swear people need to stop dickriding over how great and amazing Kishi and bash it just cause of "Fillers".

The fillers are cruddy.

They predictably made Fuu like Naruto, except dumber. And as usual, inconsistencies occur.

At least with the Shadow of the ANBU arc, there was one well choreographed and animated fight scene.

Eh most of the people that say they hate fillers are just bandwagoneers, I for one enjoy the fillers, they are really entertaining, I still refuse to watch the obito fillers...because I've seen obito's storyline too much to even care or to force my mind to entertain the thought. The current filler is legit though, I love fuu, she's energetic and fun, weird as heck but still fun.

The fight didn't even started in this arc yet you seem so incline to criticize on a setup episode just because it has low budget???

If they need to enrich good art&animation quality, then it should'v been one of the most anticipated fights as you said, Obito vs Kakashi for example.
