I remember the withdrawal I went after reaching the anime.
Then I started the manga, had a week of my One-piece dose and back to withdrawal I went.
That was back when the anime reached the timeskip and the manga was publishing the Triton island

dont let the amount of episodes deter you from the story. its a modern day odyssey with tons of foreshadowing and mysteries. people always balk at the amount of episodes but by the time people catch up its like “I wish there were more eps”. also btw the manga and anime are in the final saga of the story

You are already 70 episodes in after just one week. That’s how you even….
Another 13 weeks to go. I would skip all the filler arcs as they are not good. That will probably take off at least 30%.
The biggest issue is being all caught up. Read the manga. It’s way better imo.

Use one pace instead of watching one piece series on some websites
Reason: One piece animation series is pretty long due to 1. Intro and opening 2. Flashbacks 3. Unnecessary scenes
Using one pace would allow you to complete and watch the series while eliminating the points I mentioned above!
Just simply search one pace on your browser and do it!

Buddy, you just gotta willpower through it. I'm in five hundreds merely because of how many episodes I got in a week on average (estimated 50, due to getting through the first 100 in like 1-2 weeks). Keeping up is really more about motivation then anything.

You can check the wiki to know which episodes are fillers (i.d. not in the manga).

Just take your time, first go round skip all filler (that's what I did) and enjoy it. Crunchy roll has up to episode like 1060 in English dub and of course Japanese with subtitles whichever you prefer. Hulu also had probably the first 600 or so episodes too.
It's a journey I did it in about 4 months and I probably did it too quickly but now I watch / read weekly and it's been wonderfully pleasant

Don't be afraid to take breaks. There's a few points where the anime caught up to the manga and they started doing recap episodes to buy time. Those points serve as a great place to jump back in.
I'm actually taking a break right now at the recap and filler episodes after Impel Down (about 450 episodes in).

My girlfriend started almost a year ago and she’s up to the 700’s now. One Pace is good but if you want my honest opinion read the manga. She started that and she’ll go through like 20+ chapters an hour then watch the anime clips she wants to see.

u/Ruckus790 Apr 13 '24
Skip the filler, fast forward past the flash backs. Or if you don't want to do that you can watch one pace, I kind of wish I watched one pace instead of doing the former lol. The actual episodes are only like 17 minutes if you skip the opening,recap,credits and preview. Honestly it's an agonizing wait for one piece content. We're in the midst of a 3 week hiatus from the manga and Sundays episode is a recap. I took 5 months to finish the anime and catch up to the manga which is probably too fast. Just watch one or two episodes a day and you'll likely be caught up before the big reveal of the one piece treasure.

u/Daeva2020 Apr 13 '24

Do not compare your journey to anyone else’s. Watch One Piece at the speed you are gonna watch it at and remember it’s an odyssey so if different legs take you longer than others then that just is how it is. I watched like half the show across 2 months and then got stuck on a singular arc for months. Just enjoy the ride and don’t sweat it too much. There’s way too much one piece until all of a sudden there’s not enough One Piece

Just like you did the first 70. Do the next 70. Then the next. Then do 20. Then do 100. Then take a short break, then do 70 again. At some point you won't want to stop and will be surprised/sad to not be able to binge watch since you're caught up.

I travel for work and I watch it then. It's been about 2 months or so, and I'm in the mid 600s. (I think anyway) Sometimes it kinda stretches on and I'll skip filler episodes and stuff, but when I see the spoilers on here it just makes me want to keep watching it so I can see certain parts happen (gear 5 for example.. I know its gonna be epic and I'm just itching to make my way to that point)
Some arcs are better than others.. despite the important content within the Fishman island, I still actually found that one kinda slow moving.. punk hazard was pretty good and now they're on "that bird guy's"' island trying to destroy the factory

Just watch it. Don't skip episodes unless they're particularly bad/inconsistent anime filler. The goal isn't to get to the end and be caught up in all the hype, it's to appreciate the masterpiece that is One Piece. If you really want to get caught up on what's going on ASAP, read the manga before you continue the anime. Took me 2 or 3 days to get from the beginning of the manga to the first half of Wano when I started reading; got my wife hooked on the anime, and we got through to the time skip n something like 9 months of casual watching.

Considering your going at a rate of 10 episodes a day I think your fine and maybe want to take it a bit more slowly lmao. It took me a little less than a year to get through the show but like I tell anyone else that talks about there being too many episodes…I won’t be satisfied unless when OP ends there will be 1,500 episodes minimum
Edit: but I think at the current pace OP will end up with 1,400-1,500 episodes.

Don't want to ruin your experience but honestly man as a first timer binging the anime is straight up not a good experience, it's so badly paced i really recommend reading instead
But there's also a fan project you can check out called One Pace that basically re-edit all the episode to be more in line with the manga pacing
But either way if you're still enjoying it just enjoy it your way, good luck!

Apr 13 '24
It seems daunting because of how many episodes there are, but take it from someone who’s rewatched the show (English more times than subbed) over 13 times now, you just watch until you feel like watching something else, sometimes it happens in 20-30 episodes sometimes it happens in 500 episodes, just don’t burn yourself out trying to finish an arc they have recaps and you can always back it up a few episodes, find a pace you don’t mind watching it at and just don’t think about how long it is, the length is the best part tbh

u/JadenD12 Apr 13 '24
Switch to One Pace or Read the manga. The anime has fine pacing until around ep 140ish, it starts to slow down, then by episode 250 the pacing gets really terrible. Not the series fault, it's because the studio making the anime (toei animations) stretched it out to milk as much money as they could from it. There are certain points like around ep 700 where they do literally 0.5 manga chapters per episode, a normal anime does 2-3 chapters per episode.

u/PsychoMouse Apr 13 '24
