My top 5 worst filler in anime

When it comes to anime, by far my least favourite aspect of any is the filler. When the series turns away from the manga content or real story in general. And I usually hate a lot of them. Not only are they a waste of time, but they can also be annoying to get through when we're trying to watch the actual manga story line. And so, here I'm counting down my top 5 least favourite in various anime. So, let's begin and I hope you all like this.
5. Eclipse Celestial Spirits (Fairy Tail):

Starting us off at number 5 is this needless filler right after the Grand Magic Games. While Fairy Tail has had some cases of needless filler, this is by far the worst with so many stupid fights and, for some reason, some consisting of Gray having a dance off with some members of this rebellious group of Celestial Spirits who have begun to act on this own because of an eclipse.
4. Warship Island (One Piece):

Even a masterpiece of a story like One Piece has it's fair share of flaws in the anime and by far it's worst is this anime filler arc with it being a boring ride the whole time. While on a stop to this island helping a kid, he Straw Hats are forced to fight a super boring and annoying villain which takes up too much time.
3. Rebecca (Yu-Gi-Oh!):

While certain aspects of filler in Yu-Gi-Oh are actually pretty enjoyable like the Raphael and Seal Of Orichalcos and, to a more personal extent, Capsule Monsters, some have been a drag to get through and by far the worst is with Rebecca. Nothing more than a brat who's only purpose in the show is to be annoying. Doing absolutely nothing in the story aside from complaining and hoping to make Yugi her boyfriend, any time spent with this kid is insufferable.
2. The Garlic Jr. Saga (Dragon Ball Z):

Coming in close to number 1 is the filler arc that makes absolutely no sense in terms of the plot of Dragon Ball Z unless you've watched the original Dragon Ball Z movies. If you haven't, you won't even know who Garlic Jr. is or what he's talking about in terms of getting revenge on Goku and Gohan. And this was right after the Frieza Saga, so after that incredible story, we get this huge waste of time with a lot of the main characters turning into vampires and the show introducing one of the most annoying characters ever with Maron as Krillin's girlfriend who pretty much runs of with any other guy or take advantage of him.
And my number 1 least favourite anime filler is... Every single darn annoying filler episode (Naruto/Naruto Shippuden):

Yeah, when it comes to Naruto, I love it, but the filler that it's infected with makes it so hard to get through. By far the worst aspect of this anime is the amount of filler that taints the story. Not only has it way too many for starters, but it also consist of filler during canon episodes which makes it insufferable to get through and hard to get through the canon content too. And the arcs can either be way too long, have needlessly stupid plots or have the characters do stupid things. While I may find one or two from the original Naruto series to be somewhat enjoyable, that doesn't mean they're good. So I'm not putting one in particular episode arc here, I'm putting every single filler episode because of how much they can ruin the experience of watching this incredible story. And so, everyone, those are my picks for my top 5 worst filler in anime. Thank you all for reading and please comment down below to tell me what think or, if you like anime, please comment which anime filler is your least favourite.
