    I think everyone collectively agrees hiatus > padded content. I stopped watching around whole cake island because episodes we’re going a quarter chapter. I’m glad their finally starting to see this, I’m guessing the previous approach was starting to lose viewership or just not be as profitable as it used to be.

      Which is one of the reasons why I typically recommend One Pace over the actual series to people. It fixes just about all of the issues I had with watching the series. It also makes it easier to get caught up if you’ve lagged pretty far behind the weekly schedule.

          It’s a fan made project that cuts out the recaps, the filler arcs, and most of the OP and ED sequences, keeping one of each at the beginning/end of each arc. It then condenses a lot of the story arcs and reorders some events to (mostly) fix the pacing issues of One Piece and cut down on the run time while preserving the original story.

          They’ve got a website out there, but I can’t link to it here, since it’s technically a pirate site. No pun intended. It should come up with a google search though.

            okay, that’s great to know about. I’m always looking for supercuts, are there any other supercuts of super long anime like Naruto or bleach, because I started watching them and then I’m like fuck off. I’m not doing 900 episodes of maybe filler, I just want the story of premise I enjoy.

                40% of it is filler? damn.

                I’m always looking around for these supercuts, I’d love one of Naruto or bleach, I feel like half of naruto is unwatchable filler.

    This works out perfectly for me. I started watching the anime a few months ago, but I lost steam around halfway through, so this gives me some time to take a break before catching up!

        3, but yeah. I’d have them on while I was working since the pacing is pretty easy to follow. Plus I’d read the manga back in the early 2000’s, so I could remember the major plot points well enough without needing to devote my full attention.

        Well usually it’s supposed to take less than a month so he’s not really doing anything impressive. 12 days of watch time when there are 30 days in a month. Assuming you sleep for 8 hours, you even have around 4 hours left for various activities!
