If you’re a Naruto fan you’ve probably watched the entire series including the fillers. Whether you’re a first-timer or the third, you probably want to know which Naruto Arc Fillers are worth the watch. Naruto is shounen packed with action, adventure, and humor. While the plot gets better and better with each episode, we all want to skip the fillers and watch the fun parts.
Why are there fillers anyway? It’s because the anime starts before the manga is complete-which means, the anime has to have fillers to continue the story. Don’t skip these Naruto Arc Fillers, they will get you rolling on the floor with laughter.
Here’s the list of Naruto Arc Fillers in the series:
1. Land of Tea Escort Mission (Episodes 102-106)
This is the first arc filler in the Naruto series. Team 7 goes on a mission to the Land of Tea. This is the only arc with Sasuke as part of Team 7 of Konoha, before he deserts the village. Although the arc does not have any relevance to the main story, this mission will give a small insight into the relationship of Team 7.
2. Land of Rice Fields Investigation Mission (Episodes 136-141)

This is a light-hearted arc filler you don’t want to miss.
3. Mizuki Tracking Mission (Episodes 142-147)

This arc is worth seeing purely for Team 8.
