Naruto Filler List – Complete Episode Guide
Table of Contents
When it comes to the world of Anime and Manga, nothing beats the level of awesomeness that Naruto has got, it is one of my favorite anime series of all time and probably be yours too. The first episode of Naruto was aired back in 2002 and the series lasted for about 5 years until 2007 and during this time, 220 action-packed episodes were aired. No doubt with so many episodes it has a good amount of fillers as well and to be precise, out of the 220 episodes there are 90 filler episodes which make it around 40% of the whole anime series.
Are Naruto Fillers Worth Watching?
Now, most of you must be thinking “We will just avoid all the fillers” but here is the thing, unlike much other anime series, Naruto actually has some quality fillers that filled with action, emotion, drama, and everything that you expect from a canon episode to offer. So, I would definitely recommend you watch some of the fillers as well if not all, as they actually contain some of the great events aside from the original manga, depending on the type of episode you watch but if decide not to, you won’t be missing out on any events from the original storyline and if you don’t know about episodes type just check our Episode Type Table below.
