    When I was new to anime I watched Naruto. Made it about 150 eps before everything felt like it was repeating itself, and that was the last “endless” anime I ever watched.

    Still maintain that an anime over about 100 eps can’t be good–maybe ok, maybe amusing enough that you’ll watch it, but not good good. There’s simply no way to sustain a decent story for that long.

      IIRC eps 120-220 are straight up 100 eps of filler and every fan will tell you to skip those.

      Sorry for your shitty experience, hope you can give Shippuden’s canon a chance sometime

      I think I got to the low hundred mark on naruto. Then someone told me everything after the

      spoiler

      death of the old dude and kidnapping of super serious emo kid

      wasn’t worth watching, because the naruto shipuden basically picked up there anyway. I suppose I’ll get around to shipuden someday and find out.
