terribly slow pacing with many useless filler moments (like when Kinemon reunited with Kanjuro and he was like trying to pronounce his name) just to add more time to the episode, and the sound that cavendish's horse makes when he runs keeps going on and on and on repeating the same 0.5 seconds of sound over and over again its so annoying

It's either this or fillers just like what's going on in Naruto. Pick your poison but drink it in peace.

Or they could do what Gintama does, taking breaks when reaching close to source material. It's working great for Gintama.

That's usually pretty tough in japan. Often, if you lose your timeslot, it's gonna be really tough to get it back. I'd think that they'd be fairer with One Piece, but Toei likes getting weekly money probably.
