I love it, but the length is certainly a hurdle. It took me years to get through the anime, and there were several points where it felt like it took multiple episodes to make even the most minor progress in the story. Still, though, the story itself is great, and it seems that recently things are back to the snappy pace that the beginning of the show used to have, at least where the dub leaves off.
I’ve recently been using one pace to watch the anime. I found that is cuts a lot of “shocked face” shots that last a unnecessarily long time and a few others
I have to give it a go. I tried to start watching over piece years (decade?) ago, back when Ace was to be executed. I started from the beginning and it was a snore fest. Decided I’ll just skip the start and watch episodes as they come out. After spending what felt like an eternity watching Luffy run on ice I just gave up on the entire series because it felt like an episode worth of story was stretched to 5 episodes.
This was my experience as well, and I was watching while playing like Minecraft or dwarf fortress or something like that and it still felt like shit was taking forever to happen.
IMO w8 a little longer and watch “the one piece”, it’s a project that will do a “remake” of the series without the filler and with the seal of approval by the creator, made by WIT syudios
I caught up FAR to fast. I was working from home. A new job, and it was right around the holidays. So no one wanted to really train me for awhile, so they gave me easy work that took no time at all. I don’t think I’ve ever binged something so hard in my life haha

Thanks mate, maybe I’ll finally be able to watch this show. I’ve tried and failed a few times over the decades

Just googled that, apparently it will release in February 2027 on Netflix. I guess I can wait a little longer
Is it simliar to Naruto Kai with how they cut all the filler?
Dunno since I’ve never seen Naruto. But, it cuts down the episode lengths and a few filler episodes so I think so?
Ah yes, the horse-walks-into-a-bar cut.
It might be long, but it’s also not great
That’s what she said
I had a friend who I saw catching up on the anime in 2023, he texted me a few months ago to say he had reached the newest episode.
