Boruto Filler List: Ultimate List Of Filler, Canon, And Mixed Episodes

 

Boruto: Naruto Next Generations is a Japanese manga series that is the successor of the famous and much-loved Naruto series. It was conceived from Shueisha’s proposal to Kishimoto to make a sequel to Naruto.
 

Unlike the manga that initially started as a retelling of the Boruto film, the anime started as a prequel before Boruto and his friends became ninjas in a later arc. Being such a high-stakes anime has led creators to push out episodes at a frequent pace. The series has seen a total of 277 episodes being aired along with a series of light novels also being written on it.

 

Since the anime is adapted from the manga, a lot of fillers are bound to happen. This is because filler episodes in any anime are often a result of anime catching up to the manga’s storyline. Thus, it requires some time to just reach the same degree of advancement in terms of the storyline as it did in the manga. Keeping this ideology in place, the series is going to have around 30 episodes as filler episodes and that constitutes roughly 11% of the total anime aired.

 

And if you are one of the people who wants to know about the filler episodes of the franchise and how they are operating right now then this is the article you should look at.

Important Filler Episodes:

 

 

1. Crisis: The Threat of Failing! (Episode 16)

 

The tests are getting hard now. This episode focuses on Denki who is worried that he might have a hard time passing the Taijutsu test.

 

Now on the outside, this may seem simple. However, on the inside, he knows that this can be troublesome since he would become a repeater if he failed the Taijutsu test.

 

Moreover, Iwabee, one of the repeat students, overheard Denki. And now he is also concerned about his status. This is going to be fun.

 

 

2. Run, Sarada! (Episode 17)

 

This is a rather simple filler episode that puts our attention on none other than the best girl in the show, Sarada.

 

She has been assigned a relatively simple task. All she has to do is hand over a toy to a specific person. Seems basic right?

 

However, things will start to fall off as Sarada will be experiencing a lot of problems in this seemingly mindless task of carrying a toy to the person.

 

Therefore, this episode is filled with fun and humour.

4. Strength in Unity (Episode 41)

 

The first mission is in action. And although it started a bit differently, now this mission involves Team 7 securing a village head.

 

The idea here is that the Village Head of the Green Banks was kidnapped by Rogue Ninja. And that is where things started to fall off.

Moreover, we would have no other choice but to see if this team is capable of dealing with some real danger.

 

 

5. The Genin Documentary! (Episode 48)

They must capture the animals that have escaped the zoo. Nothing fancy. Hanabi Hyuuga, leader of Team 15, claims that her team doesn’t need her since this mission is too easy for them.

 

However, Wasabi and Namida start to argue over petty matters. And that’s why this show will change our perspective on everything.
