Reasons Why Many Filler Episodes Are Skipped

Meanwhile, here are some reasons why anime viewers dislike filler episodes. Among them:

Irrelevant to the Main Story

As for filler episodes, they usually do not come from the manga or the original source of the anime. Furthermore, the studio makes these episodes so that the manga creators have enough time to create new material.

Although some filler episodes provide interesting stories, some people choose to skip them to stay focused on the main story.

Disrupting Pacing

One of the biggest complaints about filler episodes is that they can disrupt the momentum that is already present in the main plot. For example, an arc is in the middle of a conflict and shows an intense fight.

However, it was suddenly interrupted by an unrelated filler episode, which made the tension and intensity decrease. Of course, this makes anyone who watches it have to wait even longer to be able to witness the conflict in the main storyline.

Spending a Lot of Time

With filler episodes, the anime that should have ended faster actually feels longer and drawn out. Thus, making the audience who only want to follow the main storyline feel like they are wasting their time.

Moreover, if the anime being broadcast has quite a lot of episodes, this will certainly reduce the audience's interest in finishing the anime.
