How To Watch Detective Conan Filler-Free? Easy Watch Guide

Detective Conan is arguably the only running Anime show that is older than One Piece. The series is not only older than One Piece in terms of Anime release, but also Manga. This is simply staggering taking into account that it’s a detective series!

And, as it happens with most long running Anime series, Detective Conan has enormous list of Movies, Specials, OVA and on top of that Filler Episodes. I’ll be frank when I say this! I still haven’t watched the series in its entirety, and I think that’s pretty common for many watchers. If you have watched everything, then you’re really a Legend!

This post is focused on the new watchers who are trying to figure out how to watch Detective Canon. You can blaze through the anime if you skip certain Episodes, AKA Fillers! But, the issue is that some of them are really good! This is going to be extremely lengthy, so LET’S GOOO!

Conclusion

So, as you can see in the “Filler-Episode List,” though Detective Canon has enormous number of episodes, a majority of them are Fillers that are entirely optional to watch. If you are only into the real “meat” of the story, then it won’t take you much time to finish the Anime.

I on the other hand am watching even the Fillers. Yeah, I skip some of those that I don’t like, but it’s fun to watch slowly and steadily!

Are you planning to watch Detective Conan with or without Fillers? Well, I’m pretty eager to know!!
