Quote:Except they have shown computers in the anime. And not in the filler arcs, either. If I remember correctly, Kimimaro's chamber in Orochimaru's widdle underground hideaway had all sorts of tech-esque bits around it...including what looked like monitor banks displaying medical information. I recall Kabuto was seen hitting keys and such on a console...
Which may be why they don't have computers in Naruto's world (unless the filler decides to make an episode that goes into the digital Twilight zone).
(mind, I can't recall whether this was shown in the manga, but it was definitely in the anime)
