I know, but personal preference is different from objectively being good. ;)

My ideal version of Naruto is a mix of Anime and Manga. In many cases i felt that the Manga moved too fast and the Anime too slow. The amount of flashbacks were pretty insane (and the length too) in the anime, even though the Manga implied they were truly flashbacks (brief moments). I had the feeling that the Anime team had a better feeling for the Konoha 12 than Kishimoto though, and made the story more flowing.

And though i didn't mind filler that much, once i read the manga... holy crap. I think i'm pretty close when i say that Naruto is 50% filler.

Closer to the topic at hand: Kakashi vs Obito is one of the best fights i've ever seen, and was masterfully executed in the Anime (But also much better depicted in Anime because of it's nature). It's everything about Naruto that i love, in one battle.
