I watched nearly a thousand episodes of One Piece before finally giving up when they did a 17 episode flashback for a story that could have been told through exposition.

    Frankly if the Oden flashback isn’t for you then one piece might not be for you

    It's my wife's all time favorite show, so I really tried. Some of the early arcs were a drag (cough, cough, Arabasta, cough). But from Water 7 through Marineford it just got better and better, and I really enjoyed it. Even after the time skip Dressrosa and Whole Cake were for the most part engaging. But man, Wano was such a slog. By the time they finished the flashback, I just didn't give a shit about that island anymore. I'm tempted to just skip to Egghead, or give One Pace a shot.
