Naruto Shippuden

I love this anime so much. The story is surprisingly well-planned and everything is just sooo good. Some characters might be neglected but that's tolerable. It's still my favourite anime.

Had to add a review since some of them I read were quite frankly ridiculous.

The story continues were it left off and takes no time at all in getting right into it. It then goes on to get better and better and better. Character growth, development and change is incomparable to any other manga/story/book you will ever read, with some serious plot twists while constantly offering reasoning and back story completely justifying them all.

Reviews down rating due to fillers is ridiculous, obviously the studio and channels need to make money and fill air time, and obviously 1 manga is not as long as 1 anime, common sense should then counter any grudge held due to fillers.

Other reviews stating it's gone on for too long or stories/characters are being recycled - I wont go into too much explanation on flawing this review, it's so far off the mark all I need say is this individual has clearly not understood the intricate's of the characters and the history.

In summary it's my opinion that Naruto is one of the most epic and dynamic stories to exist to this date. It is not anything like DBZ or similar 'OP Powaz anime'. Though it does have a large emphasis on fighting, Naruto is primarily about characters and story. It is a must watch AND a must read to everyone with above average intelligence. Others will enjoy it immensely too, but without a doubt the more intelligent you are the more you will enjoy it.

Just fed up with fillers, quit so many times watching this series. Back in 2011 I had to stop so many times because there were 1 manga canon episode on 4 fillers. Now, almost 9 years later when I can skip all that crap, feeling is amazing! High quality production, amazing emotions, deep story, characters that bind with your soul, amazing! Skip fillers and its 10/10

I'm sitting here hollow and sad that there is no more episodes! To be honest, I cried at the END! Without the best anime overall! It had everything! (And I've seen a few!)

Wish I could forget everything I SEE the show again for the first time!

An absolute masterpiece for the very first episode of the initial series Shippuden and its later setting is one of the ways the "brand" has had such a period of success giving compelling characters and arcs as well as showing perfectly the growth of many of the individuals that create the cast. For all it's flaws (particularly related to pacing and filler) there's a thousand reasons which solidify the shows status as a deserving modern classic amongst the greatest of all time
