What's your point? The fact is that the first couple of episodes of GT aren't particularly good,GT doesn't good until the Bebi saga.The first eps weren't that bad per se,they just weren't that impressive.
Just becasue a bunch of snot nosed punks that download them doesn't like them, doesn't mean the people that watch it on TV won't. Now, if they do skip the 64-ish episodes that really flippn', say it with me, stupid.

As for ShoPro approach to the filliers, why worry about it? They will dub them, and they will be on TV. Fun did skip the Black Star Dragonball space hunt, but they gave us "Here's what happen in 16 epiodes that we skipped only to repackage them down them road as the "Lost Episodes". episode, which didn't help the fact that they skip a good chunk of the story. I REALLY didn't like the fact they release the last 3/4 of it first, only to release the 1/4 down the road. If I watch to watch a series, it's Ep 1-64, not 16-64 then 1-15. That's like starting to watch, uh popular show, Lost in the 2nd season and wondering what the heck happened.

The point I was making is nobody cares execpt those that are making a big deal out of it. If don't like the filliers... well, you shouldn't be downloading them anyway, but don't watch them. I'm sure the day when they get back to the main story and Naurto dawns his black and orange track suit, Naurto fans will hold their headbands high.

Is the fact that manga comes out slower just the way it is? Or can it be said that the artists are being lazy? Because if you can manage 25 minutes of moving pictures more quickly then eighty pages of drawn panels, I'm not really sure what to think.
There are other people on here much more capable than me to answer your question about the manga.

I always thought it came out slower because it was only one or two people doing the drawing and story. Where as anime you have a whole studio working on the project. And a lot of artists aren't willing to make manga at any faster rate than the magazines they are serialized in, so the pacing is already there.

Least thats what I always thought, but someone else might be able to give you a better answer than that.

IMO its half and half. The people who make Naruto (sorry im still not completely obsessed to remember company names, i only started 2 weeks ago Very Happy Embarassed ) dont want to end the series in a bad fashion. Also, the manga artists might be lazy, but as I don't really like to read manga, or it could just be that the company is urging people to read the manga by stalling the show. All we can hope for is that after the fillers, the series will be the way it started, which was good small laughs+good character ability devlopment+great action. I'm hoping that's what happens. Also, does anyone else think that Naruto is going be a verrryyy longg anime like 400 or more eps? I mean he is a Genin, and wants to be a Hokage.... I think if they just stuck in a "5 years later" thing that it would kill the anime.

But thats the thing with Naruto, there is plenty of manga to go off of. I don't think it has to do with laziness.

It has to do with the fans which want to get back to the story-line, and watch this one advance the way it is meant to. Simply put, it seems that the story-line in the anime went to the crapper, while the one in the manga remains at least consistent. Least thats what I hear.

That sounds about right to me. As I don't read Manga I was just taking a stab. Oh well as long as Sasuke does not die (Which i bet he does..) its ok

"Naruto GT" would probably work better. After all, Naruto is nothing but filler filler filler right now. I know! Let's revive Zabuza as Super Zabuza, and then search the universe for the 7 Black Ramen.

Naruto shouldn't be hokage. Kiba should. His All-Fours Jutsu was cool.

Cool plot: Neji becomes Hokage, but Kiba kills him, and then he gets a fatal disease. On his deathbed, he passes his power to Akamaru.

Does anyone know where I could find a Kiba costume?

The way it's going we should just become the writers of Naruto... The fillers had better end at 200, what is it at now 195? 196? Only a couple more episodes I guess. Or maybe they are waiting for the dub to catch on in America for those people who just watch toonami...

Now while I'm not defending the Narutards out there who will only support the free methods of experiencing Naruto, there has been something all Naruto fans who have experienced the filler have paid, and that's time. That's 1750 minutes, 875 hours roughly (unless my math is wrong) that has been devoted thus far to a single viewing of each filler episode (and this isn't counting the 135 previous episodes).
1750 / 60 = 29 hours, not 875.

As I always do in posts about the Naruto filler, I'm going to post a link to this Ask John article.[/quote]
