How To Watch Naruto Filler-Free? Naruto Watch Order Guide!

I still remember the day when my friend introduced to me a new thing called “Anime.” My reply was, “But, cartoons are only for children, not for adults like us.” But, he insisted me to watch Naruto and then come back. Here I’m today after few years, writing about Anime & Manga.

Well, you might not have such coincidence, but most of use Anime fans start with Anime like One Piece, Naruto, etc and then move on to watch other series. Naruto is great to watch with the story being a complete roller coaster experience! But, the series is so vast that most of the new watchers confuse what to watch and what not to!

In this post, I’ll try to explain the easiest way to watch Naruto and Naruto Shippuden. This post also has a list of Fillers you would want to skip. Let’s GOOO!!

Conclusion

Unfortunately enough, both Naruto and Naruto Shippuden has a lot of Fillers. Some are Good, most of them aren’t. If you really are into watching Naruto in its entirety, then you can take a look at those Filler arcs.

As for me, I skipped most of the Fillers as I was only interested in the main story. I watched some of the fillers in Naruto, but skipped most of them in Shippuden.
