It should be illegal to recommend shows with more than 1000 episodes.
If you like it fine, but I saw it and the pacing is straight up horrible even if the worldbuilding is neat.
There are battles that take literally more than 5 hours without counting the intros and recaps. Even my longest D&D battle was shorter, and those are freaking turn based.
Thank you for posting this. I gave up on the show a week ago around episode 600. Marineford legitimately felt like they spit in my face and told me my time was worthless with how many cuts of “he’s almost there”. The show looks like it gets interesting again afterwards but Marineford legit just sucked the will out of me to continue watching. I was thinking of looking up a fan edit to just get the cliff notes and this is perfect!
Not for nothing, but the manga is paced much better and can be read legally, easily, and digitally for a $3/month subscription. Took me like a month and a half to read the whole thing.
You’ve made your opinions clear about long recommendations, so take it or leave it. You were interested once before, though, and it might be worth checking out.
This is my same thought with soap operas. Not that I want to but how would you even get into a show that had been running 5 times a week for 30+ years?
I tried to watch the ocean cut of Naruto, which basically edits each arc down, cutting out unnecessary flashbacks and recaps, along with intros and intros, making it into basically a series of films.
It’s still 40 films worth of content and 3+ hours per film sometimes (I think, it’s been a while), and the pacing is still absolutely fucked which is a symptom of basically every episodic anime when binged.

Fuck the animes pacing, it’s unbearable. Luckily https://www.onepace.net exists

Yep it’s the same with a lot of these super long series, they are much more digestible and addictive in manga form.
Read the manga
