>>1849397the reason it is boring is because of the god-awful pacing. I loved this show to death growing up, hell I've watch the 714 episodes that have aired and seen the 5 or w/e movies so I know there are good moments, but HOLY FUCKING SHIT IS THIS PACING TERRIBLE. I use to be on your side, arguing that so much happened in every episode and so much detail was given that it dragged out the arcs, for the better. After watching many, many other shows since I can confidently say this show has the worst pacing I have ever witnessed. I love detail in a show, but this anime goes way beyond useful/informative detail and encroaches on OCD detail. The series should have been able to completely finish by 700 episodes, not be just barely over halfway.
> Luffy vs Dofflamingo bitch we have been hyping this fight for at least 2-3 months now; I don't think luffy has actually moved more than 20ft since he made it to the castle vs bellamy.
> new allies (a fleet of them for that matter)yeah a ton of new faces, all really interesting too, but god damn so much fucking detail to each of them it drags out the show for WEEKS.
Should have been able to sum up them all in 2-3 episodes TOPS
> Sabo, "Devil fruit awakening"I'll give you this one, that entire thing was badass as fuck and so far the colosseum has been my favorite part.
> Kaido's first apearance (and since no more SMILE factory, Kaido is going to go after them now; which makes the strawhats enemies of 3 of the 4 emperors (Kaido, Big Mom, Blackbeard), etc.sure it's a great plot point for the arc, but other than pissing him off and foiling his plans with SMILE, we haven't seen shit from the Emperors (I will say I'm 99% positive this arc will end with at least 2/4 showing up/heading that way/something as the straw hats hightail it the fuck out of there)
so yeah a ton has happened, but for the most part it has been a whole lot of nothing while hyping the future of what may happen.
