Would watching only the canon episodes ruin the experience, worsen it or have no significant impact?

If you want to watch it, skip the fillers no matter what. The fillers worsen the experience it by a lot.

Agreed as above^
But if you ever feel the need to watch more Naruto, check the fillers out. The Shippuuden ones are mostly alright~

Just skip all the fillers. They are really bad, especially episodes 136-219.
The only filler from Part 1 that I liked was when Team 7 tries to see Kakashi's face.

I'm incredibly critical over series that overextend themselves. In my opinion, if a series deviates halfway through from its main goal, unless it's for really necessary character development, then it isn't worth it.

Some fillers show bits of the story that take place but aren't shown (in the manga).

But yeah, the main story is progressive so just skip the fillers if you want to enjoy it

Nope, Naruto has been bad ever since the time skip.
He turns from an ambitious kid to a gay dude.
I say don't waste your time and don't even start the show.

Sorry to say, but Naruto is a bad show, filler or not. The filler just makes the mistakes more visible.

Yes, without the filler it is so much better. As a matter fact, Part 1 of the manga is one of the best Shonens ever.

I was planning to watch Naruto soon and it apparently has a lot of fillers. Does it change anything if I skip them?

It's called fillers because it doesn't affect the canon and just there for the sake of filling broadcast schedule. So no

Probably not. Fillers, especially in Naruto have mostly been put in to extend the studio's income for as long as possible.

some fillers are good, and most are bad. They don't affect the story so you can skip them if you want. I recommend it.

Shippuden sux but Naruto started out OK. I wouldn't say it's bad but it did go bad.

No its Part 1 thats lacking and overrated as fuck. Shippuuden until the war was superior in every way.

OP watch it if you like Shounen, the first Part 1 isn't that great but after the timeskip its really great and has some of the best Shounen arcs ever

He turned from an obnoxious little brat who should be bitch slapped into a true hero, Part 2 is superior in every way to the vastly overrated Part 1
