Alright, Naruto Shippuuden itself is badass. You just can't help but to love certain characters, the action is great and the emotion is there but most of the times you either won't care or you won't even notice. The music in the anime is fantastic and really gives that ninja/shinobi feel, especially due to iconic Japanese instruments such as the shamisen. Some tracks may be overused a bit, but it's not bothering in general. It just makes certain moments predictable.
Although I love the story, I can't stand the fillers and flashbacks. They use flashbacks and fillers on the most inappropriate moments.
Let me give you
...
an example: In the middle of the final battle they will throw 12 fillers in your face. After that they continue with the final battle for one episode, and while a character's performing a major act for the story.. he decides to have a flashback, continued with another flashback episode. Seriously, it's ridiculous. It totally ruins the atmosphere, excitement and enjoyment. They also repeat a lot of scenes from flashbacks, heck I wouldn't be surprised if some episodes are the exact same, but with the scenes in another order.
This is why I rate Naruto Shippuuden a 6 overall. I find myself saying "AH NO" way too often on the first frame of the "Next time on Naruto Shippuuden!" at the end of every episode, which isn't a good sign. Will they make it better with the episodes to come? Time will tell.
