| It would be so much better if it was a seasonal anime with 15 seasons, also it is unusual but instead of an episode everyweek they can publish 1 ep every 2 weeks so pacing would be better and it would better for people who want to start one piece |
| I am Mad Scientist. Its soo cool. Sunovabitch |
| So we have to wait for eternity for the next season.No thx I am okay with it as it going.Idc about animation,pacing so then read manga.As we all know one piece is famous outside for it's long run and 991 episodes.I like one piece as it is no need for seasonal one piece. |

Waiting a year for the next season is basically what almost every anime does nowadays, it isn't something new, plus it also means that One Piece would get better animation |

Pichufreak100 said: While yes it would have benefited from being seasonal now, back then it was fine and realistically the pacing was fine for most arcs up until skypiea, it just seemed worse because of the animation in the early episodes and the fights being a little padded with stuff but had “ok” animation until I’d say alabasta. If it went seasonally after alabasta then it’d be different since thats where the pacing issues come in. Last note why would it do 3 chapters an episode? Sometimes it would yes, mostly the fight scenes, but otherwise 2 are good enough most of the time, the only early arcs that would be affected would probably be usopps, it’s the only one that had kinda bad pacing, maybe Sanjis. I've been inspired a bit by how anime like My Hero Academia and other Shounen do the adaptation. Some like Naruto usually adapt 2 chapters per episode, it is true, but if they made 2 chapters per episode, Alabasta or Skypiea would not fit in a single season (not to mention Desrossa). I think 3 chapters is a reasonable thing to do. In the "second season" I had to adjust some episode to 4 chapters, which would speed up the pace a bit, but it was necessary (and to tell the truth, it is not impossible to adapt 4 chapters in 1 episode, many animes do it, although sometimes you have to skip something if there is a lot of dialogue). I've looked at how much dialogue the chapters had before putting them together, so I think they could fit in well with that pace. |
| I think the pacing up until Sabaody was pretty solid for most parts. Reused animation, staredowns and the likes were kept to a minimum and only implemented when it made sense. 3 or even 4 chapters for some episodes? That would make them feel hella rushed. Like 4 episodes for Whiskey Peak were on point. Episode 64 featured the adventure on sea(first Grand Line struggle), the welcoming, the party and the twist where Zoro confronted Baroque Works. Nice flow torytellingwise with a cool cliffhange. Episode 65 was dediacted to Zoro fighting 100 bounty hunters + the ending with another twist. Already a fast paced episode. Episode 66 switched things up yet again by having that quarrel between Luffy and Zoro who easily took out the special agents + learning more about Baroque Works. Another episode that flew by. Episode 67 with the hilarious conclusion to the fight between friends, yet another hype reveal and Miss All Sunday pulling up. Imagine putting all that in 2 episodes, it would kill the harmony and weight of many iconic moments we love. I deem 1,5-2,5 to be ideal on average. The downside here is that there would be a need for rearrangement to fit in the cliffhangers. |

Yeah, I know 4 chapters per episode could feel a little rushed, but I wanted to do it like 25 episode seasons, so it would need to be rushed a little. I decided to rush Whiskey Peak because I think Drum island is more important, so it would need less chapter per episode to have better pacing. Please understant: This post isn't for telling how the anime should be, because we know One Piece needs its time to explain itself and all that, so 2 chapter per episode is perfect. I only want to show how could it be in 25 episode seasons. For example, Alabasta has some episodes with 2 chapters per episode, because it can fit in a 25 episode season, and Enies Lobby too. |

My post was just a bit input ✌🏻 Single, triple cour or unorthodox episode count such as 20 would definitely work more in it's favor. Maybe adapt less and fill up the rest with recap or anime original like MyHero is doing it. |

I'm one of those who thinks recaps and anime original are usually a bad thing (not all time, because one piece for example has some good original arcs), like in MyHero, where they have rushed a lot of MVA arc doing 4/5 chapter per episode but they also put a lot of recap and 2 filler episodes for no reason :/ |

In other words, helpful to some and others can easily skip them. As for individual anime orginal episodes or mini arcs. They can be put in to fill a season/buy time. Imo preferable to mixing orginal content and manga canon. |

| What they could actually do is make a lot more of these "Episode of..." specials that recap entire arcs. |

I understant your point and I understand they make filler arcs for not seasonal and long running series like naruto or one piece, but when it's a seasonal anime, I don't really like it. They have arcs to adapt and with a good pacing. It's just not necessary. |

But 1-3 episodes as a little breather or bridge between arcs can work at times. Furthermore, in certain cases it could allow the canon arcs to have better pacing and it's in favor of artistic freedom xD |

| A seasonal series with each episode covering at least 3 chapters would've been phenomenal, but seasonal anime were rare back when One Piece first started. If only the anime had debuted 15 years later. |
| Updated up to Wano Part 1. |
rufersonOct 10, 2021 4:14 AM
| Finally done the (i hope) final update until Wano ends. I've modified some numbers and added OVAs that would cover the (ironically) cover stories of the manga. I'm still triying to figure how to slow a little the pace of season 2, but with Arabasta ahead, it's pretty impossible, so sorry for the little garden arc. One Piece is huge. Doing this was a lot of work, because I had to consider the length and dialogue of the chapters. Usually after time skip chapters has a lot of dialogue, and arcs are too long or too small to do a 2/3 chapters per episode season. For example Punk Hazard is 46 chapters, and I didn't want to end the season with the begginning of another arc, so I put some cover stories as 2 episodes at the begginning of season 10 (also, chronologically it makes sense), and then in 23 episodes Punk Hazard could fit perfectly with a pace of 2 chapters per episode (which is a good pace for its heavy dialogue). Dressrosa obiously needed to be done in 2 seasons. 4 chapters per episode could make it fit in 25 episodes, but I don't see that working, a lot of the dialogue and story would be very rushed. 50 chapters with a pace os 2 chapters per episode is good. Whole Cake Island was interesting. It could be in 25 episodes but with a pace of 3.5 chapters per episode, but I though that would be a little bit rushed. Also Zou and Levely needed to be covered, so puttin them in 2 seasons with WCI in the middle was a pretty good idea. Wano will obviously be modified, as we don't know how long it will go. A pace of 2 chapters per episode would be great for it, but ending the first seaosn of wano with "Onward to Onigashima" sounded perfect, so I made it 2.5 chapter per episode (it's not that bad). The problem is; if Wano doens't end in chapter 1037 (it won't, I can tell you), it will not fit in 2 seasons with the pace I'm currently using on it (2.5*25=62, 975+62=1037). The most probable and the better future would be Wano ending at chapter 1060, or a little bit before with a short arc after it that ends around 1060, because that would make it 3 seasons of wano, with each one covering 50 chapters and having a pace of 2 chapters per episode (910-960, 960-1010, 1010-1060). That being said, my job is done for now on One Piece :D |
| Updated till now :D |
| Updated up until the last chapter on the manga, 17 seasons finished! Also changed some images for seasons and added titles for them. |
| Wano finished!!! |
| Up to now and updated! |
