Wano had dragged episodes on par with Dress Rosa or worse. The beginning with Tama, Hawkins, Ushimaru and Holdem, Udon training arc and even the beginning of the Raid. Adaptationwise it's definitely up there, even if some episodes like 917, 957 or the early part of the Oden flashback had a good flow. Dress Rosa was the longest arc with a subpar chapter to episode ratio. However, we can't forget that it featured a lot of set up, character introduction and backstories. Maybe it's just me, but sometimes I have the feeling people treat it as a scapegoat.

That aside Marineford should also be on the poll. The chapter to episode ratio may have been better, but they had to turn up recycled frames, staredowns, slow reaction time of characters and Luffy shouting Ace. The padding of the scenes in general was jarring af. It didn't feel like a fast paced war. Toei also pushed it a bit with the Hancock or Ivankov comedy. Additional Buggy scenes were fine.

Honorable mention to Reverie. It wasn't slow paced in the same sense as the other arcs. I still have to mention it. The good thing is that you can skip the flashbacks.

How was Skypiea's pacing one of the slowest? Each episode adapted about 2 chapters worth of manga material, compared to Marineford's episodes which only adapted 1 chapter each iirc. While Skypiea wasn't the most action-packed arc, it still moved faster than almost every other arc that came after it.

Dressrosa is the slowest arc, followed closely by Wano. But Wano doesn't get as much flack because for some reason viewers act like the animation makes up for the turtle-pace of the storyarcs.

I have seen a post in reddit comparing the pacing
Dresrossa had 0.83 and Wano 0.7 chapters/epsiode before oden flashback ,i doubt currently wano has more than 0.7 so yes wano is badly paced a lot but some non canon scenes are great but most of them i feel are unnecessary but i am glad that these non cannon scenes will come handy in fight.
For me though FI and PH had 1.1 chaps/episode they were worst maybe due to bad content in them

Figured it's that terrible xD Like the sumo match and other aforementioned parts were just tedious to watch. Anyone should be able to tell. But hey, one or two Ishitani episodes, some sakuga here and there and Wano is the best arc of all time. Almost makes me think that people who say that skip episodes and only watch the good stuff. Additionaly they parrot the anti Dress Rosa camp.

And yeah, FMI and PH already had slower parts in the manga until they turned up towards the end.

Just look at this scene 8 mins scene cut to 4 min by one pace.8 mins of freaking luffy vs a random sumo and they have to .There should be an absolute crime to make an ongoing shonen manga into weekly anime.Black clover and one piece suffered too much.The increase in sale on demon slayer and Jjk were due to insane anime.though i love jjk but i would not have read it if not for anime.Imagine rooftop in season format.One piece sale would top even non watchers who out of curiousity watch some and be drawn to it,but toei will do anything to milk the series.

Agreed Skyepia had 1.53 chaps /ep and Marineford 0.93/ep.Skypeia had one of the best comedic moments ,some mometns were dragged and unnecessary but i guess fast pacing couldnt change it because some part in manga wre so made.
Are you sure wano does not have horrible flashaback ,i can remeber 4 episodes dragging TAMA scene making me .Wano had some of the best highs and worst lows both in manga and anime.

oh yeah and the question was what arc was the slowest not what was the average number of manga issues in each episode... just saying anyhow one piece is still in my top 5 favorite animes regardless of how many repeat recaps they throw in
