What issues have concernedOne Piecefans?
When you adapt long manga likeNarutoandOne Piecepacing is always an issue, it is a common problem in the anime and manga industry. The problem arises when the anime comes way too close to the manga since manga chapters take a lot of time to release and sometimes even take weeks to get out of one chapter.
About 3 years since i started the show… And I’m finally cough up.One piece takes 300 episodes to get good, 600 to get great and 900 to get fucking phenomenal. And i still cant recommend it to anyone because of the horrendous time sync and the anime pacing problems.https://t.co/eMUzigJZVqpic.twitter.com/vpWeeqzPX5

This causes problems for the anime as if they went too quickly they would catch up with the manga and might have to go on hiatus or even add filler. This is the problem that theOne Piecefandom is going through.

A major chunk ofOne Pieceepisodes are filled with flashbacks which to a limited extent is needed for context but the usage of flashbacks to slow down the pacing has angered the fans who have taken it to Twitter.
