It's kind of frustrating, since there are so many places they could have added new filler scenes instead of just stretching things. I can see why they didn't, though.

when you stretch things out you get to use the same animation 2-3 different places, it's cost saving and time saving!

Until this year I had been looking forward to toriko more on a weekly basis than OP. It's loving incredible and ridiculous, and is a rare example of a comic that was pretty alright for a couple hundred chapters and them became Literally Perfect after the time skip.

Nah they slow it down a ton. If you keep a look out for internal monologues while minute long clips of stuff that happened about 10 minutes ago play it becomes obvious how much they were trying to pad it out. They do the One Piece anime thing where a bunch of the episode is dedicated to a recap and flashbacks so that they only need to dedicate about 2 chapters to an episode.

We got about 22 chapters in 13 episodes, including recaps and a summary wind down episode. That's pretty darn good. You do realize you're complaining about something that moves at at least twice the pace as the One Piece Anime? On top of it, Studio Bones did a stellar job with dynamic action and animation. I really don't think this is a thing you ought to be complaining about considering the state of anything made by TOEI.

Yeesh.

I'm not going to be happy with a subpar adaptation just because it could be worse. Ask for more from your anime content

Yeah I think it's above par (in fact, I think it was pretty darn good), considering what par is for most anime studios. But sure, I wish everything were perfect and amazing and the best thing ever. It seems silly to whinge about it not being up to your pretty unreasonable standards.

It's like complaining about the One Piece Manga being bad because it takes a chapter off every three weeks. This is the One Piece Manga thread after all. Your criticisms make no sense, and are completely divorced from reality and any sensible standards.

Awesome as gently caress cover, but Praline and Chiffon instead of Bobbin? I'm guessing that volume covers the very beginning of the arc only. Praline even said in her only appearance that she's willing to abandon BM's crew for Aladdin, I wonder why she's on this cover.
