The end of Naruto fillers in sight?
UPDATE:
And now ANN has actually taken those titles off of their site! As such this post is altered to fit their current information and really doesn’t offer up any hope at all of the end of Naruto fillers… so who knows how long they’ll continue… wtf?
for the love of humanity can’t it just end already?!
original post (behind the cut):
This could be a pre-mature crying of wolf, but recent releases of upcoming episode titles of Naruto have strongly supported that the wretched fillers will in fact be ending in the near future. The following is a prospective list of titles for upcoming Naruto episodes from Anime News Network, whom I trust. (obviously i was wrong here…)

Like I said, ANN is a pretty trustworthy source, and I pray they’re right on this (or I’m going to look like one big ass clown for posting this…)
The fillers really put Naruto on the back-burner for me, serving up mediocre episodes over and over again that I just couldn’t stand to watch after awhile. I know that others, especially those following the manga, are as eager as I am to see Naruto get back on track and start being awesome again.
Well, that’s about it. I’m sure most people reading this have already seen the topic on it in our forums, but I felt this was frontpage worthy news.

Sooner or later, popularity of Naruto will increase rapidly.
man i feel so cheated (and stupid) now…
If the fillers end in the near future. i can say i’m happy. But, at the same time i didn’t put a big hope in it.
I WILL ON TILL UR 60!!!
this makes me smile
I read those episode names and said to myself “ah more fillers”… None of those titles fit with what is and has been going on in the manga since his fight with Sasuke…In fact the next arc should be the Kakashi Gaiden arc which none of those titles seems to suggest in the very least.
Just found your naruto blog while browsing at google, i have a naruto blog too, but urs is good. and great content.

Hm, what shall I dub this arc? Naruto-in-search-of-blueprints arc? My filler expectations were never high, but since that last two-episode mini-arc of “Gai-delivering-mail”, they’ve fallen. I swear, if this filler keeps up… someone will have to sleep with their eyes open…
i stopped reading the manga so that way ill be hooked into the anime once the fillers are over. how long has it been since a real story? shees. i cant wait.

203. Setting Out! Three Years to Train!
Found it on ANN and I believe it
203 is changed now ppl in ann hav direct access to changing and adding the names of the episode list. but i do want the fillers to end,
Ya ur right, that is dumb how ppl r allowed to change that stuff around. Whatever

203. Setting Out! Three Years to Train!
Hopefully..This one can be the last filler, because 3 years is exactly the time for Naruto’s training be4 2nd series start…
Maybe from 203-208 they will make Kakashi Gaiden and then with episode 209 they will start 2nd series.. as episode 209 birngs exactly to the next season..
hopefully
oh.. actually i checked on ANN but i didnt find that 203 episode..
I heard from some1 that episode 203 is an hour long episode. I dont know if that is true tho.
.
And on ANN they took off that 203 name. also on narutocentral.com he says he’s been hearing it ends on 203 -_- i will have to wait and see if this is all true tho
I just don’t understand why they started fillers in the first place. if the manga is so far ahead what are they worried about? If they catch up then they can start fillers, but what is with 100 episodes of garbage when there seems to be plenty of content…
I think it’s to earn money. U know, naruto’s so nice so maybe they think we’ll watch it no matter what since it going to become nice again. It IS going to become nice again right? I’m going to murder the producers if they’re going to end naruto with fillers.
This is just an evil plot to destroy fansubs. We get bad stuff so that we don’t watch the fansubs anymore. The people in Japan get the real stuff.
At episode 135 they were really close to the mangas. Each episode is about 1 1/2 mangas. Manga 238 was around episode 135. If they go past the manga then the story would go crazy -_- and they would have to cancel the show just like some other animes they had to cancel.

That’s your best friend for accurate NARUTO episode titles, since ANN’s gone downhill at the moment. The latest titles are at the bottom. It’s all in Japanese, but you can just run it through Babelfish or something.
PLEASE SOMEONE
PLEASE keep watching Naruto so you can tell everyone when the fillers are done!!!!
well, we can always hope for the fillers to end…i mean we might as well seeing how it’s been over a year since we’ve been hoping for fillers to end…
and i think this waiting/filler is pretty good for a few reasons:
a. hypes us up for whats to come next (especially for those who read the manga)
:smile:
b. lessens the chances for filler
….basically makes it feel as if the long wait was “worth it”
well i don’t see the manga and i stopped seeing naruto when the fillers came up so that the history got more excited and i could see the episodes much more reguraly and i was wondering if during these fillers they introduce real information concerning the manga like the times when konoha young ninjas are training =)
what i understand is that fillers were put so that the history could develop and the anime episodes could get done with more time and they turn in to (invented) somethings to explain reactions of some caracteres like sakura and Ino,
Am i correct? please enlight me
ps: i guess i dont mind seeing these episodes cuz i just want to see naruto as much as possible but what is the real reason for they doing this?
well…
1. the fillers really didnt add anything “new” plot-wise or character development-wise
2. the purpose of using filler is to widen the gap between anime and manga plot-wise. after the battle with k. naruto and cs2 naruto in the anime, the “gap” got way too narrow. hence, the reason why we see the filler. the strange thing about the current nonstop filler is that they’ve put in way too much compared to how much most anime series will have in a row. my guess for this is:
a. make a heck of a lot more money from those who actually buy the dvd’s
b. increase hype for the anime (so more viewers)
c. lessen the odds of having any more filler at all (maybe a few short arcs here and there as the anime progresses)
hope that helps…:mrgreen:
*cs2 sasuke…:lol:
Well at least we know that naruto fillers will be over by next year cuz they said the the movie that came out recently was going to be the last movie before part 2. *and a movie comes out every year
*
Well so positive side effects is that this gives you time to play the better naruto games that are finally being released over here. Like NHero1 Although NHero 2 is so much better.
Plus I do feel that the turning point is right around the corner. they can’t be that stupid as to continue filler distrabution after one year of lameness. that would be bad business sense. i am already annoyed at the slight lameness of the dubbed episodes already out. they are almost to season 3 already. The fillers have to end. America (if nothing else) excels at hurring up production of stuff.
they need those new episodes too. Or so I would like to believe
well, there’s a thing called reruns that most north american tv stations (ie toonami) does quite often with anime…
then they could also show naruto “uncut” on adult swim or something lame like that..
and i doubt the US version will do the filler epi that we’ve been seeing for over a year now.
and yea i agree that it is bad business to keep on showing fillers…as if we hadn’t seen enough yet..heh
bleh, we really can’t do much though. it’s up to people like kishimoto and studio pierrot to decide
thanks for the info xxnike629xx
but what i don’t understand is: instead of this lameness they gave us? why not show us what happens in the 2 1/2 years timeskip? that way the anime doesnt catch up to the manga and the anime is NOT lame as it is now.. o well it should get back on track come october, just in time for naruto’s birthday.
i hope to god, the devil, and every significant figure in between, that you akurin, are fuggin right… theres no way any audience will wait a second year for a show to continue, even naruto’s powers of ninja awesomeness cant hit that level… atleast not with the quality of fillers we’re seeing now…
has anyone noticed how there seems to be an almost impossibly obscene level of reused clips from previous episodes??? i swear it bugs me to no end…:evil:
well, i mean they could do “filler” by adding stuff in the kakashi gaiden and showing the 2.5 years…they could…
but then again, they know how many pissed off naruto fans there are with all the junk we’ve been seeing weekly for over a year now…
i mean this week, there is no naruto and next week epi is a normal length epi so maybe they’re planning on actually stopping the filler and maybe doing a 2 hr special of the kakashi gaide (i.e. 4 epi worth in one shot)..
or not~
it’s really up to kishimoto and studio pierrot to decided what to do..:???:
As it was stated many many times before folks.. the fillers last a complete [SEASON]. Season meaning for example: summer, winter, fall, etc.
It’s been said that the fillers will end and the anime to pick up in october. So just wait it out folks. Keep readin’ the manga though, cause there secrets to be revealed about Naruto’s Hidden Jutsu Powers that will amaze you.
Naruto is a show that churns an episode every week practically. In the USA we just show 13 episodes and the reruns for the rest of the year. Is there really a difference between them just showing reruns until the new season or just showing fillers? I mean they are at 200 episodes in 4 years. It took 9 years for The Simpsons to get to 200 episodes. If showing fillers keeps the series from being cancelled then I’m all for it. Would you perfer just dead air?
The One hour special and even the 90 min special…guess what….
ALSO FILLERS! X3
They won’t end….
you’ll burn for suggesting such a thing…
hopefully aone really means what they said on their blogspot (aone.blogspot.com) about them getting ready to catch up like crazy with naruto epi…
the day naruto fillers really end, there’s gonna be a lot of happy people…
what is a filler/
well i think the reason why they made fillers is because the manga isn’t that much far away…cuz after the three training there are only like 2 or 3 volume of naruto and that’s around 10 episodes of anime? so ya…
hey xxnike629xx. (aone.blogspot.com) doesn’t seem to work. Did you miss out something like didn’t add www. Though that usually doesn’t affect anything…

Used to sit and watch Naruto with my friends every week. It hasn’t been so for nearly a year, thanks to those freaking crappy fillers.
Japan goes through the same thing. I went there and watched the last episode on tv live before those fillers came.
Most people I know have dropped interest in Naruto and are watching other anime. Like bleach etc. Me, I just stopped watching, and check every few months to see if anything has happened.
I dont care for following much longer.
however, I do know there are a lot of fans out there, and many of you waiting.
I cheer for those that put effort into translating all of these anime, and spread them across the globe, to make it accessible to everyone.
cheers to you.
Sheesh, you guys really don’t know why there were fillers in the frst place?
This is to give the mangaka time to fill out the story in the manga before it hits the anime. It has always been like this. The alternatives are:
* Let the anime go on ahead past the manga, thus forking the story in two. I think this is what happened with Full Metal Alchemist. In some cases, like Candidate for Goddess, the whole thing fell apart.
* Take a hiatus, don’t show any anime. No fillers … no Naruto episodes at all. This is what happened with Tsubasa.
* Make a “filler arc” that has a real story, but nothing substantial happens. Very difficult to do if you don’t want the story to branch off. This is what is happening with Bleach, but it may easily turn into a completely different storyline.
Although there is a bit of a profit motive, I can imagine much louder screams from the fans (like you) if Naruto went on a hiatus for an entire year.
So think about this before complaining about the fillers.
(Though I’m getting sick of ‘em already).

Not everyone is ignorent to the reasoning of why animes have fillers, of course not everyone wants to aknowledge the reasons why either. Then there are some people who just can’t accept fillers because they are not part of the manga. Which is sad cause in some instances they can be good (but not in Naruto case, 95% of them really do suck.) Either way, I feel it is better for people to simple inform others rather then expalin with verbal abuse or emotions towards others. Why do people have to be so immature. I say this based on some mean comments I have read elsewhere expaling matters such as fillers *sigh* poor noobs. *sigh again*
Oh well, Question toss up! Despite all the
I am feeling, getting rdy for the new non-filler season, I am now becoming very
at these extra long intervals between episode’s. After watching #200 after a week skip, am I right to understand that they are making us wait till Oct 5th untill the #201 airs (which promises to be a 90min special) Anyone else annoyed at this? or did I just misinterpret the info?
*cough* episode 203 is the 90 minute episode (contains 3 episodes) and I believe that it is end of the season. If the next season is the start of naruto part 2 or not i dont know.
well that is a sigh of relief i had the same question about if they were going to make us wait about 3 weeks for 201 but thats good that 201 and 202 should be on the norm schedual and 203 then should be subbed if it comes out on the 5th like by the 6th is then maybe? idk how long it takes them to sub this stuff
One day….one day…
But if not the manga is almost always better than the anime so I can’t get too broken about it.
if 203 is supposedly a 90 min. special, then it would be perfect for them to make it the entire kakashi gaiden. seeing how it is supposedly the end of “part 1″…:???:
That would be awesome…don’t get my hopes up.
I’ve been keeping up with the fillers, but just clicking through most of them.
Anyway, I saw the previews from last weeks episode, which included a preview for the 90 minute special… and let me tell you, judging from the clips they were showing, it is NOT Kakashi Gaiden. It looked more like a cheap Naruto ‘Movie’.
I suppose all we can do is wait until it comes out, but I have very little hope after seeing the preview last week.
please stp the fillers dattebayoh
bow thinks fillerhttp://www.gotwoot.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_eek.gif
will end i dont
screw up last comment who thinks filler will end
I stopped to watch naruto series after the first few fillers.
I mean theyre are total crap and just do not fit to what happened before them storywise.
Iam so damn angry to what they did to the original manga manga.
…I however, enjoing all OP fillers so far.
well i’ve been keepin up with naruto fillers…
they’re not that bad, it’s just that they could be better. it seems worse because some of us also read the manga (like me) and know how good the series is supposed to get..
so just be patient. i think next week’s 90 min special will be the last of the fillers (finally~). if it is, then i’m gonna be very happy…if not, then oh well.
Yup its right ^^ 202 is the start of the thingy..>.> 201 was the end of the fillers. And they also said you’ll see a person that you haven’t seen for a while.. :O SASUKE D:
@Natake
So, i can finally start watching it again ^^
btw
)
does anyone know when the fillers started exactly? ( i cant even remember it anymore
And were there any “real” episodes during those 1xx-201 fillers? (with real i mean manga releated ones)
If iam right the first fillers started with ep 101:
Fillers 01
——————
101-106
Original story:
(at ep 107 Sasuke will wake up afer the injuries he took during the fight with his brother Itachi in ep 85)
Can anyone help with the rest?
The fillers started with episode 136 (the Fuuma clan arc, I believe)… Episode 101 was an actual “special” chapter in the manga.
A few very small snippets here and there were actually in the manga, but I can’t remember which exactly.
So after the 90-minute special this week, we’ll have had 69 episodes of filler! *dies*
Typo… The 90-minute special is next week… Hour special this week. XP
I thought the fillers started around 142, but I havn’t read the manga yet so I can’t be sure.
Personally I loved the arc where Hinata showed off her new KAITEN move.
However, (and this is sad to say but) I have been archiving summery’s for all the fillers on my clan site and as someone who has been watching the fillers so as to notify my friends that they can start watching again. PLEASE for the love of GOD start the gaiden saga!
I don’t want to archive the fillers anymore.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Naruto_story_arcs
i can’t wait for the fillers to end…
im hoping that the 90 min special is the kakashi gaiden…it’ll be like 3 epi worth in 1 week then right?
1 epi = 2 ch., 3 epi = 6 ch (entire kakashi gaiden)…perfect way to end filler this week and start showing awesome stuff next week…:eek::eek::eek::eek:
From what I hear, the 90-minute special is going to be a mass filler. It’s good to be optimistic, though. ^_^
So yes I was hopping that the series was going to get serious again before I go out to sea. This whole time away from the boat has been pure filler. Well hopefully when i get back (Feb.) they don’t show fillers:???:
from the looks of the preview after epi 202…looks like it’s filler
At the end of episode 202 it shows Sasuke in the costume he wears in the manga
that might be a big clue that fillers are going to be over real soon. The 90 minute (3 episode) special is a filler, and it looks like 206 and 207 are fillers… this sucks
uh yea, pretty much what i said without the spoilers…lol
anyway, i view the part showing sasuke for like 15 sec a little teaser for the anime watechers. i mean hack, this whole epi (202) was teaser reminding the anime viewers how good naruto [b]was[/b]…
but the thing that kills it (in their usual filler-esque style) is by showing a preview for next week’s epi and..
a. saying it airs in thurs (need to wait a day more for a raw)
b. saying that it’ll be 90 minutes (of filler)
if the epi after this is filler, then im guessing naruto is pretty much never gonna stop with filler (as if 60+ epi of filler was not enough)…
ok well i just checked out ANN, looks like more non stop fillers..

I think we need to wait until they have enough chapter for season 2 of Naruto. !st season we have around 135 episode before the fillers start airing. I just assume, the fillers will end when naruto series reach 230 or above.
a season is not defined by contiguous plot but by the network’s scheduling and advertising cycles. Typically a season is 26 weeks (half a year). Frequently, you’ll see a network contract a season worth of a show for a smaller number — either half-season (13 episodes), or a few short of a full- or half-season run (hence shows that are 11-12 or 24-25 episodes long). In the US, you see that reflected even more — take for example The Simpsons, which is on a regular half-year air schedule, with a half-year off (during which they show reruns). The first season was 13 episodes, sort of a provisional minimal-run of the show. After that, most seasons were 22 eps, but some were as high as 25.
Japanese TV typically doesn’t like to run a whole lot of anime reruns though, they like to keep their schedules booked solid with fresh material. It helps drive the R2 dvd market, pay-per-view, and keeps ratings high and users tuned in. That continuous scheduling lends itself well to longer series — if you’re making ratings and making money, you’re basically guaranteed more seasons to continue the plot.
i really wish they end pretty soon, i stopped watching the show like 3 month ago and i have been reading the manga now if they dont stop with the fillers in the next 7 episodes i can just say i m quitting naruto altogether, there are better anime out there (bleach) which frankly are more tasteful
Fillers R torutre,………why do we go through such torment:cry:
They torture us because they are evil and love to watch us in great pain!:evil:
Fillers will end so, the new outro confirms it. Watch the last few seconds of it and it gives up a great hint that they will be at an end.
It’s still hard to tell with the recent episode titles on ANN if the fillers are going to come to an end. I assumed they were but it’s sort of hard to call even though the titles seem convincing and the intro may suggest otherwise.
i hate to make things sound worse then they already are but wikipedia has released the name of episode 209 which we all thought could have been the start of kakashi gaiden/naruto 2 since its the begining of the new season the shows title is “The enemy is Shinobazu”. :grin
yea i know…this is really getting lame and i’m sorta thinkin that naruto is just not gonna show the gaiden nor is it gonna animate part 2….at least not for a looooong time
Im predicting that they are doing it in a sorta like real time sense,
since the next arc starts naruto 2 years older the fillers may last exactly 2 years so it shows the transition of naruto growing up so that when the new naruto airs its not a complete shocker since it may be a big change to the character.
just a thought, but it seems to be heading that way. may 05 was when the fillers first started… so if im right, we got 7 months ish.. left.
i hate to admit it, but it apparantly seems that way, and frankly the idea does not sound too far farfetched either. i know everyone is pretty much down because of this topic might i suggest watching an anime (which by the way does not have to wait till the manga is completed, which is already completed – since last march) Death Note, frankly i really hope naruto fillers end in the next couple of episodes i really do.

oh this news is turning me on!
‘Kay I look at a diff. site for the episode lists…but from what I read I’m **betting** that the Kakashi Gaiden will start some few episodes after episode 209 THEN the fillers will start to stop. Since it seems to be heading into a new filler arc w/ ep. 209 >_
My comment got cut off….here’s the rest.
Since it seems to be heading into a new filler arc w/ ep. 209 Unless 209 is the end of the Kurenai filler arc….baahhh who fricken’ knows!
Lets just hope we don’t get a filler for EVERY Jounin. ::snicker::
Oooers Check out Naruto’s outfit during the ending song for episode 205 when he’s running it gives a fast glimps of his future outift after the time skip! Yuhzuh!! Sorry I got excited when I saw that.
Stupid thing cut my comment off.
That news on the plushies being released gave me hope, i m pretty much trying to contain myself, i just really hope its true, i dont want to bother with another filler arc again. i also have to agree with yunn aswell about the ending of naruto where they give a glimpse of naruto’s new outfit. these two pieces of evidence are very uplifting. now lets hope it turns out to be true.
Hey guys, I read through most of your comments because I had nothing better to do and I, too, want the fillers to start. But it’s sort of weird since I’ve only watched the first filler but it seemed VERY boring to me so I stopped. i have a few questions: 1. What is the episode number of the first filler? I mean, I just said that I watched it, but I’m not sure if it’s 136 or not. and 2nd question, should I bother to watch the fillers or not? Because I’ve heard they were boring (people say that here too) and the first filler was boring o me, so should I stop or are there good fillers too?
I meant to say “want the fillers to stop”
hmm the latest episode, sparked something that made me think the fillers are finally over. I wont blurt it out here for anyone who hasnt watched it, but I suggest watching the 1 hr special as well as the latest one to see.
^would that be the opening song where they showed a glimpse of naruto’s new outfit which appears in naruto 2? I’m not sure, that’s what I heard
I enjoy naruto, I dont mind the fillers but would love to see a change in the characters. I cant wait for part two to begin. I know there will be 3 more weeks of fillers. I hope they will soon change.
Well, I don’t think I’m going to bother watching any of the fillers, I’ll just wait for Kakashi Gaiden and the second part. In the meantime, I’ll be watching Bleach and Fullmetal Alchemist
i think the fillers will finally end!! how boring as it was , i`v seen all the fillers, and in a way it all make sens!! (i don`T really know why, but it do)
im sure it will soon end, episode 203-207 (maybe 208) are all the same, so i think there will be at list a few carpy episodes then it will end!!!
don`t give up, it will come!!!
crapy*
I heard that there is going to be a whole season about Kakashi…a whole season! I mean I wouldn’t mind watching a few episodes about Kakashi and his past but a whole SEASON they are killing me!
are u kidding!!!! where did u hear that?
its okei like u said ,with a few episodes of them, but a whole season!!!
Are you sure about the whole season story arc? From what website/news source did you hear that. It would be a change of pace, but I don’t think they will do a whole season on Kakashi. There still is the Kakashi Gaiden. After that, they should be ready to get back on track. There is already a nice distance between the manga and the anime, so it only makes sense for them to continue the original story instead of going off on tangents.
i just watched episode 207 and on the ending it shows naruto running through some field then his clothes change to those from naruto part 2 of the manga
There’s that and also some indication from the OP theme where many of the characters are dressed up in suits.
yoo the fillers are endless, we are up to 207 and it does not seems that they will end soon, oh and also if you check wiki they have the episode list and they list 208,209 and they are still fillers,
so we can only hope they end in mid november.
my guess: they start the new chapters in 2007
it’s alright, I’m sure they will end, even thouhg I don’t watch them. But I mean, I’d rather have them make shitty Naruto fillers then have the anime catch up to the manga AGAIN
Well that’s the thing. A year of fillers is definitely sufficient for them to start going back to the original story. Even if the fillers catch up (Considering that one episode covers about 1.5 manga chapters and noting that there are about 80+ chapters of information from Part II), that will not happen for a while. The 80 chapters cover about 54 episodes. By the time the anime gets there, the manga will still be far enough ahead.They should actually be starting the story now, but are instead showing us useless filler that has nothing to do with advancing the plot of the story.
But that’s why I’m sayig don’t watch it, start another anime or watch Asian dramas. And I really believe that Kakashi Gaiden is going to start soon because the ending of the latest fillers shows Naruto in his new outfit that he wears in Naruto 2 in the manga. I believe that they’re giving us hints that it’s going to start soon. Well not THAT soon because accoridng to the wikipedia Naruto episode list, the first episode of the ninth season is a filler, or so it seems, so I think the ninth season will be the last filler season and it’ll be over with. There’s about 26 episodes in each season, with one coming out every week………….well it might take a while, maybe summer 2007. Oh god, that is a long way from now, but it’s a good opportunity to start watching other anime. Plus, time goes by really fast. I sort of feel like I’m missing something from not watching these Naruto fillers but I’m not I guess, I’ve seen one of them and it was boring as hell. I’ve heard there was no character development either. :/
plus, the time gap is supposed to be 2 years right? well they got more than a year down with the fillers so far, by summer it’ll be 2 years. it would make sense if they start naruto 2 then. not that i want them too though, I want to watch it right now XD
sorry, i know this is totally off the subject!!!!!!!!
but who thinks that the fourth is naruto`s father?
they both have blond hair, and blue eyes!!
and they both can use the rasengan.
and i not sure that i this is true ,but i`v heard that jiraiya could maybe be naruto`s grandfather!!
if you think about it they both can use the rasengan, they both are pervert`s , and they both can call out that big frog( forgot his name!!)
I’m sorry. But could you please DON’T start another “Is the fourth Naruto’s father?” thread here? I’ve read and seen about this in MANY sites and forums and this place is for you to COMMENT on the topic here. Which is “The end of Naruto fillers in sight?” If you really want to talk about it i can recommend you to some other forums where they have theories about this that are so far-fetch that you won’t believe it. You’ll start to think that people are so bored with the fillers that they can come up with anything interesting just to escape this horror. I’m not saying that there’s no possibility that the fourth is Naruto’s father, but just don’t talk about it here. There’re enough thread on the net about this topic so don’t start another. Thank you.
oh man i hope they end soon, i still think the studio is being mean by showing us hints of naruto 2 in the opening and ending opening, i really want them to end so badly, i hope that not all of season 9 is filler
i watched up to episode 204 of naruto therefore can you tell me when the filler episode ends since i don’t want to download any more filler episodes
You’ll have to hang tight. It’ll be a while before the fillers end. Not to be cynical but it doesn’t look like it’ll happen anytime soon.
Ok guys i’m going to give it you straight. I’ve got little hopes that it will end at episode 209
Yet hope always remains. The reason for those blasted fillers hanging on is merely comercial. Why else would they have pretended for the ‘god knows how much’ time that they would end. It’s for making people stick on the screen.
However if they do not end at episode 209 there will still be the end of this year.
Perhaps a new year will bring those real original stories back. Instead of those f..k.N.G :mad wannabee no good meaningless gai mocking second rate timewasting flickfillers.
come on!! They should pay us for watching that.
Anyway if by new year the fillers will not have ended…. Well then i guess i’ll just sit down and convince myself a huge meteor crashed on konoha and destroyed everything
(except gai cause he was delivering mail of course) an ended the whole story.
after all we still got bleach. :cry
I’ll have to agree with Duran on that. If I was one of the people associated with Naruto I would understand that fans are friggin tired of this and either make better fillers, or start on Kakashi Gaiden. Gosh, it’s getting on my nerves
At least we know it will start before the next movie comes out
Finally Kakashi Gaiden in sight!

I can’t wait number till episode 211!! w00t *heart attack*
I heard that those might be fake titles from ANN. I hope it’s not true, it has gotten so bad that i couldn’t even finish episode 208 and I have seen every single ep without missing anything…..sigh!
I had such high hopes for this series.
Lately it seems we get better plots out of little kiddie shows like blue’s clues and bob the builder than we do out of these filler eps:sad:
Still hope remains and I believe this one “usually there is that ??? name under the ones that are right. fake ones usually got no name. But i might be wrong i will have to wait and see
:razz:
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Forget what i just said that was dumb, all we can do is wait and see
heyy all
naruto makers are probably trying to get a bigger audience by making the enticipation carry one for almost an eternity ..
or so it seems but it should end approx in the 200s as there is a picture of kakashi with his mask off and the rumour has it that it came off whil fighting and the eps was in the 200s so we can wait i guess
One thing… Kakashi never had his mask off and that was most likely a FAKE picture you saw! Besides i am thinking that the they are gonna wait until they are done making 100 mangas first starting with the Kakashi Gaiden. They have made 91 mangas starting with Kakashi Gaiden so far, so I am thinking that the part 2 will start around Christmas to a little past New Years. Does anyone else think so?

- “It really sucks doesn’t it”
I wouldn’t take those titles to be the solid truth. ANN seems to have taken it down and further search shows that there aren’t any other sites with the new episode information.
All we can do is wait.
waiting is all we have got right now, nothing good has come out of the fillers except buy more time for the manga to progress, but some where on this site in another thread someone gave evidence and pics of naruto 2 plushis that will go on sale in february and that means that naruto 2 should start in december. this happened once before 2 month after the susuke retrieval arc started the rescue team plushis were released. thats the best evidence i have seen yet and lets hope its true.
Nope .. nope …. the fillers end in ep 212 … Its called ” Everyone’s Path “
You can see it here …. http://www.tv.com/naruto/show/18558/episode_listings.html?season=9&tag=nav_bar;9 … It’s official and original …
i really hope you right about that i really do
i will fking kill the creators if they dont end this shit. this is a load of crap making us wait 80+ episodes!!!!! I started watchin Bleach and now i am hooked on that. i enjoy naruto still, but ONLY STORYLINE EPISODES!
END THE GOD DAMN MADNESS!:evil::evil::evil::evil::evil::evil::evil::mad::mad::mad::mad:
OK lost memories could be the kakashi gaiden arc, but I not going to get my hopes up. Then only thing different about this epi I’ll do is download it the day it comes out instead of waiting a week for it to be put up on p2p. One other thing you guys should know. they could show use the gaiden and then return to filler, because its the only thing in the manga that can be used as “filler.” I will not even get excited for the gaiden becuase you know as well as i do that they could easily continue with filler after the gaiden.
The ONLY good thing about filler is that you can just write it off as a bad memory after it ends.
I just turned twenty today and the fillers haven’t stopped yet.:oops:
my recomandation to all of you naruto fans “Naruto Anime Fillers to last until Spring?
Reported by: Tazmo on Tuesday, Nov. 21st, 2006 at 01:08PM
According to what we would consider a more reliable source than the guy who lives down the street and swears that the fillers will be over after every single episode and filler arc, the Naruto anime fillers will be coming to an end in Spring 2007, that is about 3 – 4 months from now, or 12 – 16 episodes from now. The source? Allegedly the information was posted in the Weekly Shonen Jump, with none other than Naruto creator Masashi Kishimoto dishing out the details of when Naruto fans can expect a storyline that will once again continue to follow the story of the manga. We are working to independently confirm this, by walking to the store and picking up a copy when it becomes morning in Japan. But until then, blame these guys if they’re wrong! Look for more information on this in the future.” this was taken from narutofan website here is the link as proof. http://www.narutofan.com/
Confirmed: Naruto Anime Fillers to end in February; Series Re-named
Reported by: Tazmo on Thursday, Nov. 23rd, 2006 at 12:30PM
It has now been confirmed that the Japanese Naruto anime series will be returning to it’s original storyline as told in the Naruto manga series, coming this next February, a few short months from now. Along with returning to the story, Naruto will be getting a brand new name to go by. It is nothing big that will blow your mind, but nonetheless a couple of words have been added – Naruto: Hurricane Chronicles – which appears to play reference to Naruto being a Wind Element user. This is also the name that the fourth Naruto movie, due to be released in theaters next Summer, will be going under as it is a movie that will take place after the time-skip. Now there, is something to the thankful for this Thanksgiving. taken from http://www.narutofan.com
u dumb shits dey r all gonna end in febuary 2007 yep dats da truth go to datebayo .net
Download Naruto 332 to find out.
211 Memory of flames (炎の記憶)
212 Each one’s way (それぞれの道)
213 Lost memory (失われた記憶)
That proves that the Kakashi Gaiden isn’t ready or is not happening.
Those other episode names may happen later on though…
I could be wrong and the filler ends at episode 211, 212, 213, or never…
This is what happened at Dattebayo (For all the fools that got tricked by YHBT/You Have Been Trolled)
Dattebayo to pick up Pokemon Diamond & Pearl – Naruto NOT dropped [UPDATED] [YHBT]
November 24, 2006 – Dattebayo Fansubs LLC is proud to announce today that it has decided to officially pick up the currently in progress season of “Pokemon Diamond & Pearl”.
Pokemon Diamond & Pearl is the newest installment of the overwhelmingly popular Pokemon series. This show once again stars Satoshi, a young Pokemon trainer attempting to make his mark on the world while continuing to fiercely train his Pokemon, and simultaneously battling the evils he encounters along the way.
Due to the enormity of this project, and the limited resources at the disposal of Dattebayo Fansubs LLC, it was decided that the best course of action was to drop* the show Naruto. Declining profit margins and recent increases in production costs have made the release of this product impossible to maintain.
We hope that fans will be understanding in this time of transition and will share in our excitement about this fabulous new presentation.
Quick FAQ
* Q: Does “naruto dropped” mean you will stop subbing it?
* A: Yes.
* Q: Will you also drop “Bleach”?
* A: If enough people request, yes.
* Q: Since you are now subbing Pokemon DP and started at episode 9 will you be subbing episodes 1-8
* A: Yes
* Q: Will you start so release naruto again when it resume the main story?
* A: No.
Update
Dattebayo Fansubs, LLC expects an official apology from all 36,291 “fans” who sent in death, rape, ‘removed you from my homepage’, and other threats. Oh, and of course, You Have Been Trolled, again. For those of you who still haven’t got it NO NARUTO IS NOT DROPPED.

HAHAHA!!!!!! That’s so funny!!!!! That just proves that Naruto is still so popular despite the fillers and the importance of Dattebayo subbing it every week. Now maybe everybody will appreciate Dattebayo more. Actually we shouldn’t rely on them that much. I only download the Aone version. Anyway it’s still so funny!!!! Me want to see the threats!!!!
I wonder how the threats were…. people are idiots. They think that there is a news announcement and freak out plenty of the fans. The fans are idiots too, since they don’t read the context or understand false announcements. I wonder how many threats there were regarding the fans doing something bad, for example, leave Dattebayo? Dattebayo is important, especially with the people that are English fans. How many people have downloaded the English episodes (from I.P. addresses)
I wanna find out!

Good news everyone! The fillers should definitely end February 2007 with the start of Kakashi Gaiden and then immediately followed by Naruto Shippūden (2).
I hope atleast until then that the remaining fillers will atleast be not-half-bad. 
Until then watch Bleach or buy a Wii

LOL @ the f\’ing moron above me.
btw, at the time of your post, the new series was already out and it\\\’s based off the manga…the producers ruined naruto with fillers, they had to kill the project and give it a new name in honor of it\\\’s resurrection.
Ummmm .Does that mean Naruto is getting more popular?:roll:If it does mean that than I’m as happy as a guy that drank 550 cans of Coke:shock::lol::wink::grin::smile::mrgreen:
