What was your favourite filler episode from any anime and why? State the episode, anime and a rough description if you wish, since fillers don't have much to do with the main plot, but if you feel the need, use a spoiler.

Mine must be the ones in Inuyasha where Inuyasha goes to Kagome's world and does shit like eat curry. His absolute cluelessness and reaction to things in the modern world are funny, and every obstacle is pretty much a demon to him, like Kagome's school exams and tests.

Gintama and One Piece fillers. It's like you never even knew they were fillers to begin with. (Unless you read the manga before hand)

Unlike others, I really don't mind filler episodes too much. I feel pretty neutral watching anything.

Most of the Reborn ones especially episode 158. It makes me cry everytime and makes my heart melt. Also cause Haru and Kyoko are in the fillers more than in the manga so that makes me happy.

If episode 9 of Fate/Zero is counted as a filler, sure I'd think that'd be my favorite one.

If not, I hate to admit it, but as a kid I loved to watch some of the Naruto fillers, with an actual 4-10 episode story. Not the kind they have out now, where they wrap up a whole story into one episode *cough* Guilty Crown *cough*. There are a few more fillers I've seen in Anime but these are the only ones I can remember so far.

The Bleach filler episode where Ikkaku trains the Kendo club and the Naruto one where they are trying to find out what Kakashi's face looks like. Hilarious =]

Imo, my favourite filler is the 147-148 episodes of Inuyasha because they're about Kikyo, my favourite character of this anime.

I used to love the Naruto fillers, and really enjoyed them :$

Notable ones: Kakashi's face, Naruto ramen episode, the arc where someone threatens to bomb Konoha

The Bount arc from Bleach wasn't so bad, either.

I usually like beach or onsen episodes. Full Metal Panic had some great ones. I suppose you can call the entirety Fumoffu filler lol.

The episode of One Piece (135) that gives more backstory on the relation between Zoro, Johnny and Yosaku. Well, that was good one, but I'm not sure if it's my all-time favourite.

That episode can't be considered filler since the anime was 100% original content.

I used to love fillers of Naruto (I didn't know before that anime has filler, heck I don't even know about fillers before since I watched anime on the TV. Was still naive about anime when I was younger.) My favorites are:

-What is under the mask of Kakashi
-The Konoha is rigged with bombs/explosive tags which can potentially destroy the village.

One Piece... the one with Lapanui... The coin flipping guy.. that was pretty interesting too. And Sanji looking for salt after the Aqua Laguna.

i really enjoyed durarara's filler, even if they were just specials, hell those filler eps were even better than alot of the original series episode, not because the series had problems but just cause the filler in this show was kickass

I usually dont watch series with obvious filler episodes, since in, lets say, Bakemonogatari, its all back and forth between the main topic and some offtopic stuff even in same episode, so cant really write down any as one. But if an anime has some obvious episodes, its an anime I probably would not enjoy enough to continue or even remember.

One time I watched whole season skipping all the plot and focusing on fillers, that anime was Toaru Majutsu no Index II, since you know, the plot was some real rubbish, between church nonsense, one sleeved jeans nonsense and big breasted psychos I would rather pick eating cake with a characters that really ticks me off - Saten.

But after writing everything above, I remembered that episode of Eureka 7 where the crew was instructing Renton about adult relationships.

I remember Bleach had a filer series which the team designed a set of new characters for the swords. I think some fans wanted them to re-appear in the main series.

Episode 18 of maburaho



Sure the entire show is basically filler so I'm not sure if this really counts as filler

Sure theres enough fan service to make you puke

But that build up, to just the perfect ending... I've never laughed so hard in my life.
