Reading the Manga made it much clearer just how ridiculously much of Naruto is filler ( i think we're close to 50% filler). Ever since then, i've started to hate filler more and more.

In retrospect, i think it would've been better if there had been more hints to this strong connection. it made a lot more sense than the rather weird connection Naruto had with Sasuke before. That Naruto felt that there was a stronger bond than that was something i thought was extremely well-done.

Sometimes i feel that the Anime team understands Naruto better than Kishimoto himself does. And sometimes it seems like the Anime team wants to alienate all fans. I honestly hope we once will see a Brotherhood version of naruto, like a new Anime made with the entire Manga in mind, made to fit it and expand it where necessary, without extreme fillers.

Lastly, i liked that some battles were made longer (pain vs Naruto felt awfully short for the impact it had).
