I just calculated if you try catch up with all 1180 episodes today, then you need to watch for 12 hours per day without a single second of interruption for 38 days, to get to today’s most recent episode.
Sometimes it can be nice to have a consistent ongoing side project tbh. I started one piece when it had about 800 episodes, took ages but its far from a slog, killer story all the way through.
Sometimes I binged 10 episodes straight sometimes only 3 or 4.
Caught up within 6 or so months watching everything (including fillers) until the Punk Hazard Arc.
Since then I am following the show live (more or less)
Last time I checked (about a year ago) it’s ~40% of the original run time.
For anyone not already aware, One Pace is a fan profect to re-edit the series to reduce runtime like overly long shots, repeating animations, and recaps. It also condenses 3-6 episodes into one hour super episodes to reduce how often the intro/outro credits run because they also take up a lot of time
I need something better than One Pace. That is still too much slog.
I need someone to edit out every into, outro and recaps, and just put every episode after one another in one continuous movie, separated by arks. I would watch that in a heartbeat.
Did you take into account effective watch time? I would exclude intro and outro… also some animes spend 3-5 minutes repeating the last 3-5 minutes from last episode (almost verbatim, super cheap imo).
Edit: according to this source, it’s between 18 and 20 minutes of actual watch time. Not bad at all.
1179 episodes, 20 min per episode, 12 hs max a day… 32,75 days
There was one anime where an episode ends with the protagonist barely winning a very bloody fight. I made a snap judgment “He’s probably going to need to spend an episode recovering from his injuries, so I’ll just skip one.”
I think I got it dead on and it honestly didn’t seem like I missed much. But I have no idea what that guidance should be for One Piece.
Or read and divide that by at least 5 (chapters are 15 pages adapted individually into 25 minute episodes, the anime’s a pretty terrible adaptation for that reason)
I saw an example recently of a segment that seemed to last like 3-5 minutes in the anime, but was 4 panels in the manga. I don’t even think it was the full page. Is the anime really that bad at pacing?

28 days. There’s 18 minutes pf material per episode. The rest is extremely long title sequence and recaps to pad out time.
Is there a no title sequence and recaps and bits that go on to long cut out fan edit?
I jsut scrolled down. There is. Goddamn I need to hibernate for 50 years so there’s something decent to watch when I wake up.
Look up media from 50 years ago.

Wonder how much the One Pace series eliminates from the watch time? Lmfao I watch it when I need to catch up and it honestly helps a lot.

New anime speedrun tech, only watch the recaps.
Probably only one recap each 5 episodes for some animes
Edit, only watching recaps, it would be
1179 ep, 2 min per episode, 12hs max a day: 3,27 days

Just watch the One Pace fan edit
I’ve been watching one piece on and off during my free time. It has taken me 2 years to get to episode 470. I think this is gonna take a while…
