Half the "part 1" was people running around through a forest, talking, and getting nowhere. It doesn't have to be pure action, but at least it would be nice if every episode had at least some memorable and important aspect to it.

The concept of the filler -how Konoha would be with Minato still alive- is pretty cool, it just feels like the filler does it's best to make me hate it. I want to like it. It just doesn't let me.
