The thing is, nowadays animes removed fillers(or made it <20% of the anime). People stopped complaining about that, but now people complain about long waits for new content.
Unfortunately it's either wait for canon or high quality content, or wait and get cheesy fillers while waiting.
As for pacing, I'd say the worst parts for pacing was the beginning of the chunin exam in Part 1 and when they see Sasuke for the first time in Part 2. They were so boring for me. I found the Ostrich Ninja to be more entertaining than both of the arcs(chunin exam only got good after the forest thing ended). |
I've seen a lot of the series. I think as it went on, it got worse with pacing as it keeps flashing back to scenes that either just happened, or happened years ago (real life time) that have been flashed back to dozens of times already. One Piece is bad with pacing as well, taking a long time to show just a single event. It's usually these really long-running anime that do it, and I suppose they do it so they can make episodes as long as they can while keeping the budget down. I just don't like that.
