    I think it’s more like a soap opera to the Japanese, that’s a guess though. It started in 1998 or 99, which means if you were 5 when you started watching it, you’re in your upper 20’s which is wild. I think there are people that cut out all of the filler of the anime that you can watch and the netflix adaption is about 4 years’ worth.

      It’s called One Pace, it’s a fan edited version that takes out filler and overly long panning shots etc. to make the pacing of the anime match the manga more closely.

        I realize that’s something I really like about unvoiced JRPGs, and manga; my reading pace dictates the scene’s pace, and I’m a decently fast reader. I’m not going to rush delivery on a dramatically impactful line, but I also won’t linger on some duke blabbing about the history of his house’s conflict with the weekend’s villain.

      The Netflix Live action One Piece didn’t even cover all of the East Blue Saga, which ran from 1997 to 1999 originallly.
