Hi, I started watching this show yesterday, I'm at episode 6 so after that, the next episodes are fillers, the question is: are they worth watching or they are a must skip? Let me know.

if you skip the fillers, you end up skipping like half the season. Iirc there's a few in the beginning and it goes 100% original after 15 or so. Don't take my word for that though.

Honestly I'd say just watch the whole of season 1, skip season 2 (it's 100% original and awful), and just go straight to the three Book adaptations since they're completely faithful. Just know nothing after the curry arc in season 1 is canon.

Season 1 can be excruciatingly slow and boring, only reason I put up with it was because having the dub be English accents instead of American ones was fantastic and I would recommend the show just for that reason

Those fillers are not bad, so you should watch them a little. If you don't like them, skip them.

I've no idea why people Say S2 is bad because it's a filler ( like that means anything ) and say S1 is good despite the fact that only the first 6 eps are canon and even then they don't tell you everything, probably because most people don't know that and everyone is telling them to skip S2 so they don't know any better

Anyway, if you want to skip it you can because it's a filler, but it's not bad, and neither is S2

Btw I'm not saying those fillers are bad, I just want to know if they are worth or not.

That depends on you.
They are not bad chapters but are fillers after all, so you'll know they are not gonna be relevant in the future.
If you are pkay with that, you can enjoy them. Some of them didn't look like fillers at all.

I wouldn't say season 2 was awful, Alois Trancy is certainly an appealing charecter, but it is a rather pointless season.
