Re: Latest Episodes Discussion
So people are complaining about the slow pacing,
about the terrible animation about the different directions the anime is going.
I thought we all got used to slow pacing since Thriller Bark? It had been one episode for one chapter since then with occasionally covering extra chapters.
I do not see why people complain so much.
Fillers do not need to be creative IMO, there's really not much the animation team can think of , I mean, this is a war, it's hard to actually find something to animate as filler and still stay true to the material and entertain the audience. Anime is deadly close to manga, we can't ask for a fast pacing at this point. I don't think the fillers were that bad and most of them were comedy purpose, buggy and mr 3 was in this war for that too, so that the war don't get so dull and serious with fights after fights.
You can't blame them for trying to lighten the mood. I notice they animate some extra fighting scenes, if I'm not wrong.. at least they tried, no? I myself felt that luffy and mihawk was too short in the manga, so it's a good thing that they pad it out but the bad thing is they actually overdid it, which is a good example of how it strays away from the material.
That is why they make comedy/nonsensical fillers, if they expand other things, put random wb commander vs random marine vice admiral and have the vice admiral win.
What happen if that same wb commander appears again in the manga and is so damn strong?
So they chose to pad things out and add those kind of fillers.
I don't get what does different directions mean, so what kind of direction are you expecting for a war?
The enies lobby kind? Cool one on one fight to another one on one fight kind? The anime is going the same direction as manga, chaos everywhere, fighting everywhere. I think I don't get the direction thing.
Remember Arabasta arc? That was war too but it had one on one fight.
I guess people didn't complain then, because there actually is one on one fights and the fact that the pacing was great.
But remember, back then, the anime wasn't so damn close and no important characters were in the war.
But now, there are important WB commanders and Vice admirals that have a chance of making their appearence in the manga in the future.
Toei won't want to mess that up.
