An Advocate for Manga wrote: Thats a shitty aspect of it too. When the filler is so obviously for the sake of occupying time and milking the series, it takes away from whatever (little) amount of enjoyment it can present. The last good filler was the Shadow of the Anbu arc, but that too, was not placed very well. Right.The next "filler" is completely out of nowhere. Even this retarded dream arc is somewhat relevant to the current events. And you know what's worse? The fact that the irrelevant arc is beginning in an episode where it will be showing current canon events. Like seriously, how do you go from Team 7 being protected from the light of IT and talking about what to do to Itachi's past, before he joined the Akatsuki. WTF? Talk about serious disconnect. It would of been way better if they made Itachi Shinden into a mini-series, that's not in the Naruto Shippuden anime. At least, this arc will actually have a plot that makes sense and is well thought out, not to mention, it's based on the novel
