Naruto

Naruto is one of the most popular anime of all time. Despite it's terrible "filler" episodes it still manages to keep the veiwers coming back time and time again. It's basically the new Dragonball Z. Like Star Trek or Star Wars, fans of the show have a term that is used to describe them. That term is "Narutards". It may not be the nicest of things to call someone, but you have to acknowledge that the show must be pretty darn popular if the fan's are that well known.
This anime is about a boy ninja. This boy ninja has the most powerful demon in the world trapped within him. The anime documents his ninja journey as he goes form a ninja boy to a ninja man. He hopes to be the most powerful ninja of all time, but he doesn't show much promise.
I was a big fan of the Naruto series when it first came out. However, the long seasons of filler episodes really killed the show for me. By filler episodes, I mean episodes that aren't based off the original manga. These episodes are normally much more goofy, or meaningless then the rest of the show. Since the show needs to stick to the plot of the manga after the filler episodes are over, nothing important can really happen in the filler episodes. An episode where you know nothing important is going to happen is boring to watch.
