Alabasta and Skypiea are both stupidly long.
And that's an episode block too? Not just an arc?

Don't buy episodes of One Piece if you value your home.

This handy guide (spoiler warning, I guess, if you read far enough) has it split up into arcs and sagas. The buggy arc, for instance, is 5 episodes long, whereas the arc Toony is on it forty-eight episodes long. The current saga is 150 and counting. Long anime, as they say, is long.

Alabasta and Skypiea are both stupidly long.

Goddammit, now I want to read One Piece.

Maybe later today, once I've finished writing my chapter for this creative writing class.

Thanks Kin. Now I can break up my viewing a little easier (or at least plan ahead time-wise) with this.

478 episodes so far? Holy hell, I'll need a new hard drive just for this series alone (or at least a partition if I don't have it in any HD quality (at least the pack I'm getting is like that, still a bit over 100GB is a bit much. And I'm getting it in 50ep packages)).

The steam sale doesn't help my obtainment speed either.

Jesus christ, that is longer than any anime I have ever watched. Like three times longer.

Ok, so...

We have Sagas, subdivided into arcs, subdivided into episode blocks?

And this is all one continuous story?

Oh, and apparently 10 movies, 5 specials and 4 OVAs.

Also, yay, Umineko answers translation on tuesday.  Woo.

They're already translating the Umineko answer arcs?

I still haven't played the Higurashi games. Too expensive for me right now.

Sure won't. I think if I was gonna watch a fighting anime it would either be that Qwazar thing, because its premise is weird as fuck, or Soul Eater.

But it is unlikely.

I can't believe I read all the way from the first volume all the way up the the Esparda arc and then continued on tell 401. I used to love that manga... but, me and Bleach don't get on well very well after the argument, we hardly recognise each other let alone talk.

I was referring solely to the length.

I know. Both Soul Eater and Qwaser meet my 50 episode limit.

Actually, the first 2 "core" arcs (episodes 5 and 6) are already fully translated.  Episode 7, when the answers actually start coming for real, has its 50% patch due out on tuesday, with the full translation probably coming out before the final episode is released.

Same.  They even broke up the releases for the answer arcs :/.

Probably, but I'm not that much of a hardass. I still watched Aria and it was 54 episodes.

That's cool. I refuse to watch the anime before I play the game this time because I bet the VNs are more enjoyable.

Yeah, but it's so much cheaper just to buy the collection in the long run.
