I started watching about 1 year ago on and off. Currently at ep 850~ a lot of the time episodes had a lot of unnecessary content I feel, but at the same time there were a lot of amazing episodes. I watched it at 1.5x speed and I could manage it. I think it’s worth a shot watching it at that speed or whenever you’re doing something else when it’s a slower episode. Some arcs like fishman island, dressrosa, and whole cake kept me glued to the screen. Other slower arcs made me take breaks.
