would you have seriously enjoyed that 10 ep stretch through the desert towards yuba if you didnt know they were filler? The only reason people hate filler, is because it ALWAYS turns out crappy. At least this way, we know not to point the blame towards the original creator

what about the dragon arc? that was the most boring arc ever, and i didnt even know until recently that it was filler! what about the filler saga in naruto? would you have enjoyed that more if you didnt know it was filler?

geez, give the anime connoisseurs a little more credit.....we know what it means for something to be a filler, and its not just the absence of its presence in the manga.
