Naruto Shippuuden, the anime

May us take a break from Naruto manga scene, and jump into the anime bandwagon for a little bit. The Naruto Shippuuden anime, we mean.

If you are a Naruto die-hard fan who other than reading the manga chapter every week, also watch the anime episode every week, then you would have realized that Naruto Shippuuden anime started off very, very draggy, with a lot of "filler scenes". I said filler "scenes", not filler arc! The saving Gaara arc was too draggy that we saw Kakashi and Naruto running and jumping from trees to trees to catch up with Deidara for more than 10 episodes, for God’s sake! Did you remember? Yeah, exactly.

It was a disaster to us Naruto fans, yeah, but after the recent filler arc, which made to introduce the concept of Twelve Ninja Guardians, the Fire Temple monks, and more screentime for Asuma (you know why), the anime now seems like it’s back on its track! Seems like they’ve eliminated useless and draggy filler scenes, and instead replaced them with filler scenes which actually made the story going!

Now that’s the way to go, and I think I’m more excited to watch Naruto every week now!
