I decided to start reading the manga the other day and it is outrageous how fast paced it is, how'd that get screwed up of all things

I still couldn't quite believe I'd caught up to what of the anime I watched in like half an hour.

No they are not going that fast. They are just about to start the Zombie attack.

I would say just watch the Dungeon Arc (aka episode 14 and on) in it's entirety as it starts slow but speeds up towards the end as they start covering more then 1 chapter an episode.

Holy poo poo, they actually cover more than 1 chapter an episode??

I think I will continue
watching this twilight world
as long as time flows.
Tried hopping in at ep 15 ...
First half of the ep was really hard to get through, even while not actually watching it.
I may skip forward another ep or two.

Oh my god, they're getting real pacing at last. Hurray!

...How much of any given episode is still pointless filler?

As of recent episodes there does not seem to be any. I think things changed after the episode destroyer.

I put the anime on while I'm working now, I think this is episode 16?

I look up.
Then work.
10 minutes go by.
Look up again, and it's literally the same two scenes, just with a bit more tacked on.
It's like they take 3 steps forward, 2 steps back with every scene. Half of any given scene is a recap of the last scene.
This is terrible.

I think thats the last episode that goes with the screwy one chapter by episode.

Good. 16 is up now (I think? It's the one with the terrible smoke effects that Mars uses), and it seems a bit better. We'll see as it goes along.
Not like I have anything better to put on in the background.

So, apparently the VA for Asta has been making strides to get better?

Dunno. I just got a message from my daughter saying "Black Clover is watchable! Sorta!", so I assumed. From the snarky posts you guys put on display I feel as though maybe I can ignore my daughter's opinion wrt this anime and just assume that her previous love for SAO has been supplanted by this.

Pierrot remembered they were still working on this and put staff back on it so it looks less bad. The fight with Licht is pretty good looking actually.

The anime still looks and feels awful but it does get good OPs still.

I legit wish MHA got OPs more on this level in terms of fun.
