    Nice job catching up! How long did it take you?

    Oda loves doing the frantic cutaway stuff right as he's approaching the climax of an arc. I feel like it works much better when you read straight through instead of week to week because it's easier to keep the action in order. I do kinda like it for big events like this cuz it keeps the world connected, like something so big is happening that it affects all these other characters we've seen.

      Looked through my history and it was around 4 months from Ch1 to 1113. Even being generous and estimating 2 minutes per chapter we're looking at around 40 hours.

      Yeah I get it's a stylistic choice, but man this is some primo lore hold back on the punches for a minute and let the dead man speak. This is also making me realize that reading Wano Act 3 "live" must have been fucking awful as that seemed to drag even just reading it all in one go.

        Wano definitely dragged towards the end reading weekly. I went back and reread the whole thing from the start and it was waaaay better that way
