That's not REALLY filler, rather it's filling IN a hole that would have existed in the plot without it. In the novels, the traitor Bluno was the one who arranged for the traitorous soldiers to be on the DeDannan (which was at the end of the first series). Since it wouldn't be practical to have Mithril after him from something that happened two whole series ago (and made by Gonzo, rather than KyoAni) they worked in a new arc which gave him ANOTHER chance to betray Mithril, as well as build up some characters who were practically nonentities in the book (the twins and that psycho Amalgam commander). Other changes in TSR were more padding or fleshing out a story that would otherwise have been rather sparse and making it much more satisfying (even with the padding, the series was still only 13 episodes).

On the other hand, the Naruto filler is mostly just pure crap, totally new stories invented out of nothing and carried off without a trace of the series' true style. Some of the stories COULD have been good if they weren't so badly executed (don't talk to me about curry!) I'll be ecstatic when they're over, but I heard it was some time in March, not February. Oh well, the sooner the better.

Yeah just don't get your hopes up. I heard the fillers would end many times before this one and they kept going, but the current one with Gaara is looking pretty good.

There are trailers airing on japanese television right now. There is a game with the next-gen characters coming out the same week. It's on the cover of Jump. It's for real.

Filler...filling in a plothole...about the same to me. Still...I love those episodes in FMP:TSR...that's all that matters.

Greg's right, it's really happening this time. The Jump screens are everywhere. And for those of you who haven't seen the trailer yet, you can watch the flash version <a href="http://www.naruto.com/j/">here</a>.

Less than a month, guys.

I'm glad the filler is over. Say what you will, the fillers don't compare to the main plot.
