Never underestimate the power of Cartoon Network to do the smart thing. They have bypassed filler in the past on other anime series, and other franchises. Further more they are not beyond doubling over series. So we mustn't assume that they will keep their current philosophy. We can hope that they will not let the franchise get lagged down by months of filler. I really can't see the license surviving that. Most other series that languish in filler for too long vanish off of the Cartoon Network roster. The viewers do not seem to tolerate it too well despite their age.
Generally I think the North American audience is less tolerant. Give them a good series, and then load it down with filler. Watch how fast they turn the channel. Oh great another shallow story arc. They might intend to come back later in the series. However by that point its been pulled. That has to be part of the localization process specifically appreciating what the local audience will tolerate. Further more they will never understand manga considerations.
I fully confess. I do not understand the Manga mindset. I could never understand how someone could read something. Then watch the same thing. Then get upset, because they differ. To me that is something to be appreciated. That the two can be different enough that you can enjoy both, and get two experiences. However I also hate anime that is basically a slut for manga. Just an elaborate sales pitch for the manga rather then something that can stand on its own. I suppose fortunately in North America anime seems to stand very much alone, and is not viewed as a expanded universe, or an instrument of canon.
Just my thoughts.
