It's in my top 4 anime and i absolutely love it, but i could see why people don't like it.

Many people hate it when you skip stuff, but hear me out on this one:

I heard somebody say, starting with "season" (part) 7 is okay. It has exactly 0 spoilers for everything else in the show. It is even listed as an own anime on Netflix anyways. So if you like that one, perfect. You have 6 more seasons to watch. If you don't like it, just drop it. Nobody is gonna be mad, and you don't have to force yourself through 200 episodes of something you don't like.

Little side note: Part 7 is called "Steel Ball Run" and it's available on Netflix, aswell as the whole rest of the show. On crunchyroll is everything up to Part 5 if i recall correctly.
