Watch Naruto without filler: All important chapters in order


Watching Naruto without filler can be challenging, especially without a proper guide.

The Naruto anime brought us many epic moments and animations that marked an entire generation. However, it was also accompanied by hundreds of episodes that greatly reduced the reception of the series.

These chapters are known as the “filler,” and they are scattered without warning throughout the anime. In this article we will offer you a guide to watch Naruto without filler in 2023 , if you want to skip these chapters.

How many chapters does Naruto have ?

The popular Naruto series is divided into two parts : Naruto “small” and Naruto Shippuden . After its official premiere in October 2002, Estudio Pierrot created a total of 720 chapters based on the charismatic hero of Konoha.

Unfortunately, not all of them are quality chapters. Because this series was made alongside a manga (a Japanese comic), those responsible for the anime had to invent new plots. But these were nothing more than “waiting” chapters while new content came out in the manga to work on. That is, they were there to not pause the transmission and are not canonical.

That is why many prefer to skip these chapters and go directly to the main story, which in itself is quite long.

Naruto chapters without filler (in order)

If you want to enjoy Naruto without filler , you will see that the number of chapters is significantly reduced.

You can watch the first arcs with peace of mind, since there are only a few filler chapters. The Land of Waves arcs, the Chunin Exams, the Destruction of Konoha, and the Sasuke Recovery Mission are some of the most essential in the series at the beginning.

You can see them as follows:

  • Chapters 20—25, 27—96, 98, 101 (101 is also filler, but it's pretty good)
  • (Movie) Naruto the Movie: The Great Mission! The rescue of the snow princess! in Spain / Naruto the movie: Ninja battle in the land of snow! in Latin America
  • Chapters 102—160

Naruto Shippuden:

  1. Chapters 1—23
  2. (Movie) Naruto Shippuden: The Movie
  3. Chapters 23—70
  4. (Movie) Naruto Shippuden: Kizuna (Ties)
  5. Chapters 70—121
  6. (Film) Naruto Shippūden 3: The heirs of the will of fire in Spain / Naruto Shippūden the movie: The will of fire in Latin America
  7. Chapters 121—169
  8. (Movie) Naruto Shippuden: The Lost Tower
  9. Chapters 170—221
  10. (Movie) Naruto: Blood Prison

All Naruto filler chapters

The filler chapters of Naruto were made to entertain fans while the wait for each installment of the manga became infinite. At the time, these episodes aired on television and most fans had no way of knowing whether or not they were filler.

The advantage is that today we can choose between the main story and non-canonical fillers. These are all the ones you would need to skip in Naruto Small:

  • 26
  • 97
  • 102—106
  • 136—140
  • 143—219

But there is also a lot of filler when it comes to Naruto Shippuden. These are the chapters you could avoid without missing any of the main story:

  • 57—70
  • 91
  • 94—111, 144—151
  • 170—171, 177
  • 182—196
  • 223—242, 257—260
  • 271, 279—281
  • 284—295
  • 303—320, 347, 349
  • 352—361, 376—377
  • 389—390, 394—413
  • 416,
  • 422—423, 428—450
  • 464—468, 480—483

Advantages and disadvantages of watching Naruto without filler

As we mentioned above, watching Naruto without filler has the advantage that you will finish the series much faster. This is because the “filler” is not necessarily canon and does not contribute to the main story.

In fact, in many cases it contradicts the main argument, since it was written by different people. This is not to mention that many of these chapters are notably bad, boring, poorly structured and downright insufferable.

However, there are also very good fillings . In some of them, the background of some characters is explored, including their motivations and personalities. In others, some related topics are developed and more about the ninja world is explained. There are fillers that are even very fun, such as the adventures to learn the true identity of Kakashi Hatake .

You should only skip the filling if you don't want to soak up the ninja world. However, if you have time for a few additional chapters, you may be interested in learning more about other supporting characters and their relationships with Naruto Uzumaki .
