As other anime series contain some filler episodes, why not Naruto?
Naruto is a Japanese anime, based on manga, first aired in 2002 and end in 2007.
The 5 years was a large success for Naruto and gained huge respect and fame all over the world. Naruto has 220 total episodes.
Naruto follows the account of a youthful ninja named Naruto Uzumaki who battles to acquire acknowledgment among his kindred townspeople in view of the Nine-Tails fox that was fixed within him as an infant by his dad to ensure the town.
In the same way as other anime dependent on long-running shonen manga arrangement,
Naruto has a ton of filler bends. This is on the grounds that the anime ordinarily starts before the manga is finished,

Naruto filler episodes:
There is 44% of filler episodes in a whole naruto series. Since a scene is a filler, that doesn’t mean you should not watch it. A few anime-just scenes give some extra foundation to grab out the general story curve, while others present intriguing new characters that make the scenes worthwhile.
