Naruto Shippuden Filler List: All Naruto Shippuden Filler Episodes

You know what they say about The Big Three … they’ve got some BIG filler arcs.

And you know what? I think Naruto might be the worst offender. It’s a shame because, between One Piece, Bleach, and this show, Naruto might be my favorite. I’d argue that of all three of these anime, Naruto has the most unique premise, the most detailed lore, and the most interesting characters. I mean the fact that every single ninja fights in a way that is almost completely distinct from other ninjas is astounding. The sheer creativity involved in this series is staggering. But then they RUIN IT by playing the sad Naruto music and showing our boy as a child sitting on a swing in every other scene. I GET IT. YOUR LIFE WAS HARD NARUTO. STOP REMINDING US.

So here’s an entire list of Naruto Shippuden filler episodes to save you from Naruto’s sad boi bullsh*t. And of course, random arcs that have nothing to do with the main story. Naruto vs. Mecha Naruto? No thanks.
