I intended to watch an episode or two to see what it was like, but this is super addicting.

This is exactly why I don't want to start watching any long-running serials. I'm afraid of getting invested and using up all my free time to watch it, lol.

Also, I'm surprised you like it already. Standard One Piece fan problem is "This is the best anime ever, but you just need to watch the first 30 or so episodes before it stops sucking"

And that is obviously more than enough of a problem for most people

Once you get to an arc called Thriller Bark switch to the manga, that's when the anime becomes super shitty.

No, I have other things I'm interested in that I'd rather devote my time to right now.

Yeah, I have more than enough free time right now, it's just that I have really broad tastes and there's so much other stuff I want to watch. But the show is just so fun.

How can One Piece have so many episodes without diminishing in quality?

It goes up and down, though nowadays it's usually within the arcs themselves rather than between arcs, so it gets less "this arc drags but the next is awesome" and more "this part of the arc drags but wow it's worth it for what happens next"

That's also a good time to switch to One Pace.

I eventually did during whole cake island. Better late than never.

I'll see how the quality is later and go from there based on how I feel. I know the director of DBS: Broly is the showrunner at a later time, and the production quality goes back up.

I figured if I can binge nearly 700 episodes of The Simpsons in 5 months, this shouldn't be much harder.

Yeah the animation does hit movie quality in later episodes during that time but it's still only a handful.

But if you binged Simpsons with nary an issue then you should be fine with One Piece.

The main problem is the pacing, at Thriller Bark it becomes 1:1 chapter per episode instead of 2-3 chapters per episode like most long runners, and it shows. Episode after episode is stretched to the max with reaction shots and stare downs and whatnot.

Dressrosa is terrible with this (doesn't help that the art in the anime is also really bad a lot of the time). There are some scenes in Whole Cake that are a definite must watch in the anime tho

Eh, not much. He's nowhere near the most annoying character I've seen.

Baratie arc done. Felt like the first "major" battle (Syrup Village had a powerful big bad, but it was still a smaller scale). Mihawk and Sanji are cool.

Daaaaamn, Nami's flashback was fucking rough!

Also, I switched to the dub. That's generally what I prefer, but Netflix and Hulu messes up the aspect ratio for the dubs, but not the subs. I just reactivated my Funi account because the ratio is correct on that.
