I strongly agree! A good Anime OST will always make the anime more immersive, especially if the style of the soundtrack fits the background environment of the anime itself.

The original Naruto had a great soundtrack, which made it feel like it was part of the Feudal Japan era. After they started the Shippuuden series, the soundtrack for the anime changed completely and felt like it was out of place, like it didn't belong in that era so to speak. It's style got better over time, but it's still not as good as the first few OSTs from the very beginning of the series.

I don't want to be "THAT GUY" But you shouldn't be wasting your time watching the anime for Shonen Jumps series. Read the mangas, less bullshit filler to deal with.
You could do both, I've been doing that with Naruto ever since the original Chuunin Exam arc. Since the manga is always ahead of the anime, you'd always know when there's a filler arc in the anime, and when it's the actual storyline. It felt like spoilers at first when reading the manga, but it was way too tempting not to.
