It's absolute peam

Mo za

Sumo!

This sumo scene from this episode is actually one of the meme GIFs that One Piece haters love to use whenever they make fun of the show's pacing. I can't really blame them though, lol. This is definitely one of the worst-paced parts of the Wano arc.

This episode and especially the Yokozuna and Luffy almost falling for 2 minutes is probably THE most egregious case of pacing in a long while. There's probably some contenders here and there but not as memorable. So it's actually good news that we passed that threshold.😂

My god, I didn't remember this being soooo bad .

klairvoyage

There are ball ordeals everywhere for those with the eyes to see

Sanji Joestar

Which is sometimes annoying because Yes the pacing is bad But it's not THAT bad all the time😭

Veritas

Meh, it did feel long watching it at one point, but once I've seen it a dozen times, it feels kind of short now for some reason . There's worse examples of direction choices in my opinion, but not very many for sure.

This sumo match is to me the standout example that first comes to mind when talking about bad pacing and padding in one piece. Looking at it now it's just kinda funny, but when i was watching as this released on a weekly schedule i was banging my head against the wall. It was one of the reasons i stopped keeping up with the anime alongside the manga for a while. But we are now, as far as i can recall, past the worst of it! In my books, nothing from here on out is worse than this!

fr but sometimes def annoying lol

Just think of the budget they saved for future use!!

Hay, dreams take priority over anything including a child welfare, just ask Yasop,or Gen, or Sarutobi

Artemis

The pacing in this episode is so bad that it almost turns into an intentional gag. Where it just seems like both contestants are just doing some weird dance on camera. In the manga this entire scene is like 2 pages

Panagiotis Giannaris

this is one of the most memorable episodes because of how bad the padding is. Yokozuna and Ball Ordeal guy are the absolute worst imo.

Skele

I still remember that viral clip someone made where they used only manga panels to cut up this episode. What happened in like 14 minutes only lasts like 2 minutes if the anime was faithful to the manga pace

SomeoneElse

The pacing in this episode is so bad that it's amusing to watch reactors get through it. I'll skip reactions for most poorly paced episodes... But this one... You aren't a real One Piece fan if you skip this one 🤣

Oussama Essamadi

Aaa man this episode was atrocious to watch weekly back in the day. But it also feels nostalgic in a way.

We're past the worst of it with the pacing, so I'm excited for what's to come ^^ quick question tho, will you be watching the Heroines episode?

Atrachius

You done with to be hero x?

Zoodinger

It's not just the pacing, it's the outrageous animation reuse all throughout the episode. They always reused frames but I don't think it's ever been this bad. If we remove this the episode itself is pretty fun though. I think we haven't seen Luffy treating a fight like a joke since the colosseum.

King

The way I sighed when I remembered what episode it was...

Capitano

Don't worry guys, the sumo fight will just go another 28 episodes

Ariix

The entire pushing and almost falling back in the sumo ring doesn't even take up an entire page in the manga lol

Welington da Silva Castro Guimarães

Man, I'm watching the video at 1.75x speed, and the episode's pacing is still slow. Good grief, I remembered this episode was bad, but not that bad. Hahaha

Solas

It’s fine that they padded this stuff now than any of the stuff that comes later . I think this was the worse of it tbh, i don’t remember this in the manga so it couldn’t been that long lol

Matthew Gilroy

Next episode is worse because it's not "funny" pacing, just painful. The episode is not talked about as much because you can't meme it as much. And that is what makes it worse

Gogul Prasad

8:14 Don’t worry guys, all this happens in 1 second of one piece time. They can rush back to save the girl before the tweezer even moved

Veritas

Trust that Heroines has slight spoilers, it is best watched after Wano

귤🍊

really?? I thought it would be safe after WCI, I guess it did not register as a spolier, too bad :')

Phil

Every time I saw someone make an argument for One Pace vs One Piece (on Instagram or Twitter), there was a side by side comparison of this episode :D

IBG_Music

The sumo thing is just absolutely ridiculous to the point of it being funny. It feels like that was the point of it as well. Is it too long? YES. But is it funny? Also yes imo.

Julio Martinez

well, the manga chapter was just as bad now imagine that dragged out in the anime. The pacing is the same, it's just that the episode is bad.

Eldrick Simmons

This episode is like one chapter, but this arc will blow your mine with the animation. This arc has some of the best animation of any anime ever it's amazing. I don't understand why they just don't use the cover stories to fix the pacing? It used to be like 3 to 4 chapters to per episode and they started to catch up to the manga, so they slowed down. Just you use the cover stories!, but I guess capitalism.

Artemis

This is basically the nail in the coffin for how low the standards can get for pacing/padding. NOTHING in the future even comes remotely close to this. It is painfully obvious Nagamine and his A staff were busy preparing for the upcoming episode batch, well some of these early wano episodes probably got outsourced to the filler team. But we should be back on track now so things should improve from here. Also the sumo is a post example of oda just having a little to much fun with wano the japanese arc. His editors may think he likes to stretch things out because he wants to fully embrace and indulge in the Japanese cultural and thats not necessarily a bad thing. What was only about half of a manga chapter turned out to be 20 min in TOIE's episode production so it really is that egregious padding/pacing issues that cemented this as the infamous sumo episode that everyone has turned into a meme.
