I could not disagree more. With over 200 filler episodes, the filler in Naruto is the only that has genuinely inspired to look it up so I can skip it.

Some of the filler straight up interrupts major events (like a Continental war!) to tell you a story that violates quality backstory and character growth.

"Oh, Naruto was made who he is by being fundamentally alone for his whole childhood? We should just gave him a bunch of episodes where he made friends and interacted with every single one of the characters we know in the series..."

By the time I hit the end, I swore off all further Naruto content. Truly, filler and flashbacks ruined the series as a whole.
