essentially? yeah. that combined with stubbornly clinging onto their incredibly competitive timeslot means they still need an episode a week so, without filler, it means dragging out one 15-page chapter's worth of content to a whole 20+ minutes of episode setting aside openings and, recently, endings

this is the main reason people recommend One Pace. it may on some level feel presumptuous to let fans edit down a series according to how they feel it should be paced but they do it because the anime very much needs it

that seems very disrespectful to Oda to gently caress his comic up, even if he probably doesn't care about the anime adaptation....

Well, it does feel like nobody's really satisfied with the situation. A certain amount of content buffer does exist now, thankfully, so they can budget out certain big fights with big spectacles, guest animators and staff. This is why some Wano episodes are just, seemingly inexplicably beautiful in both animation quality and cinematography. Movie level stuff just sandwiched between weeks of your usual low-budget content stretching.

The issue here is, the early parts of the anime are already fine IIRC?

So it's gonna be a long long time before the remake gets to the parts that were turned into time wastes.

Netflix providing funding actually seems like a good thing? They throw absurd amounts of money at projects so long as their investors keep propping them up, so if the groups getting those funds to make or promote shows use it wisely it could yield sometbing positive. Ride that gravy train as long as you can before the floor drops out and streaming implodes.

I'm so spoiled because my local Japanese market has really good onigiri for a buck each, and onigiri bento for $5. The ones at h-mart are so pricey.

when you get past a certain point money doesn't really matter for anime production quality so all it being netflix funded means is, it has a budget and probably a schedule. which is good just netflix money is not the magic maker here one piece is not being supported in its existence by netflix money, netflix is putting big money in to get it out of one piece. this is also why netflix is not going to drop the production, this isn't a random bit of original tv they don't actually care about

They do 1 episode per week while there's at least 1 break week every month for the manga. So they functionally do a pace of 3/4ths a chapter per episode. For reference most seasonal anime nowadays is around 3 chapters per episode.

It's going to be the cheaper of their OP projects so in that sense there's incentive to hold onto it. But I will maintain some skepticism given the companies involved and the weird place streaming is in.

Plus I guess you can retell the story more “faithfully” and briskly, iirc a lot of early One Piece is done at two chapters per episode which is still I think a little slower than a lot of modern anime adaptations. I don’t think the early episodes are really worse for the minor filler interspersed in (if anything sometimes the filler makes things better like Zoro’s backstory) but I guess you can use it as a selling point?

theres an amazing interview with the writer of the dbz anime where its like

Q: What was the most difficult thing you've had to write?

A: Well, during the battle with Frieza, we were very very close to the manga, and there was no real way to insert new material in to buy us more time, like we did later with Garlic Jr, during the gap between Frieza and the Androids. At one point, we stretched 3 panels out into one episode. 3 panels. in one episode. So yes, that was rather difficult.
