I love your avatar and you can tell why
( ͡º ͜ʖ ͡º)

On topic:

I watch filler episodes if the characters I'm intellectually or emotionally invested in are in it. I get eye-gasms every time I see them on screen e_e

I don't watch filler if it's just a bunch of recaps (characters that I like can no longer convince me to watch in this case)



yeaa, some can actually be really good and some just take you into a whole different time line (´∀`)


and I LOVE your signature (´∀`)

Most shows I watch don't have a ton of filler as I Typically don't watch long running shounen. Unless it's a recap adding nothing new then I would probably still watch them.

I usually watch them, except for Naruto Shippuuden fillers which are boring and uninteresting mostly, unlike its prequel

I think it's pretty dumb myself but if I were watching fillers, I'd just let them play in the background.

I wouldn't really pay much attention to it but at the same time I wouldn't want to skip it.

If they're interesting then I'll watch it, if not then I skip it, it is as simple as that.

I watch through them to say that I have honestly watched through every episode of the given anime. Except I normally watch filler very slowly. Like 2 episodes daily.

Majority of the time I'll watch since I'm to lazy to skip it sometimes. Don't have a major problem with watching it though

I don't skip episodes. I feel incomplete that way, be it something related to the main story or a filler.

I skip them but if they are actually fine maybe you can watch them with a friend. Maybe it's even so bad it's good

Will only watch a filler if it is comedic gold or has any relevance to the series.

I just watch older anime, because it didn't have any filler.

I watch them if I like them, skip them if I don't like them. I always at least watch the first episode when naruto or any other long-runner starts to go into filler territory. If it's the start of some arc that could be interesting I keep watching, if it seems shitty or is just some random episodic nonsense (looking at you, naruto) I'll skip it and wait until the show is back on track.

I only really perceive fillers in long-runners tho. A random filler episode in a 2-cour show will nevr get skipped. Only if it's like 25 or 50 or 130 (again, looking at you naruto) fillers episodes in a row I start thinking about skipping them. And that only happens in long-runners.

But DB/Z had tons of filler, for example. Fist of the North Star had filler too, as did Yu Yu Hakusho. I'd say most long-running battle shounen in the history of anime had fillers. Age has little to do with it.

If they trigger my interest I'll watch them but for the most part. Just skip.
A Story will always come to it's end. The thing is, will you move on after it's over?

Option 4: Stop watching stuff with filler.

(my vote)

That's why I dropped Naruto.
And minus 1 score for every 20 filler episodes. (rip naruto)
dont't watch that anime if you are going to give it 1* and cry 10000 words in review about it.

I either sit through it all, or I drop the anime. Depends on how much I care and how tolerable the filler is.

If you're talking about Naruto's fillers, I just skip them because they are complete bullshit. The only filler I probably ever watched from Naruto was the recent one about Hagaromo's origin. Oh wait that was some time ago, time really flies lol.

Honestly, I don't notice them much in seasonal anime so I probably watch them without even knowing they were fillers.

The episodes I hate the most are recap episodes that have additional scenes in them that progress the story. I remember Phantom did this and ever since then I force myself to watch any recaps in case I miss anything. Sucks.

Honestly it depends on how many episodes the show has. If it is something like Naruto where it interferes with the main plot then I skip it all the way since I always found the fillers terrible for it. I didn't mind Bleach's fillers too much as they were somewhat interesting. But most anime I watch doesn't contain any fillers so I guess I don't really notice it.

If there is only a few, then I'll just skip it. But if there is a lot, then I drop the series for good.
It was the same with the Mondaijitachi novel, they shoved 2 volumes worth of filler in the middle of a fight scene. That's the worst kind of cliffhanger, so I just dropped it.

I skip flashback/compilation episodes. I just can't stand those.

Others I usually do. They're usually supposed to be funny, so, I don't see why not. I like funny stuff. Depends on the writing and what happens to whether I actually like it, but I'm not really going to know the quality of that until I've watched it.
