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.
the manga for both of them ended, and the anime of naruto is over, too. the original anime of bleach has concluded as well, but it doesnt cover the entire story. the last arc is currently being animated as a separate anime called bleach: thousand year blood war, and i doubt it will have any filler
I stopped watching Naruto when I think the original anime came out, and I didn't finish the one where they were Even teenagers, but there were several seasons of that right?
have you watched the complete series for those two? do you think they're worth the time investment?
