Amazed you didn't drop the anime way before shippuuden even started.
I'm not really. The original series was pretty decent until the fillers started after the Chuunin Exam.
They were at least bearable at that point though. It all went downhill shortly into Shippuden though. Filler arcs lasting multiple episodes long with little development. that's what made me drop it.
