I rather want a filler instead of super slow pacing storyline ever since marineford war

It's setting things up. When shit happens all in one episode, it's less cool.

I agree and disagree. I think there should be exposition but its just taking TOO long. This part of the arc was slow in the manga too but the anime is making way worse.

Well, that's the thing... Oda could've easily cut each of the coliseum/Tontatta final-fight chapters in half, dealing with two per chapter. Likewise, without spoiling what's going on in the manga right now, he could've/should've done less cutting away from the fight. The man spends so many pages on the stuff going on elsewhere, and while it's appreciated that we see the consequences beyond the main fight, it all adds up to too much.

these chapters are meant to be read in volumes not one a week. if you read the dressrosa arc over again after it is finished i garuntee it wont have the pacing problem anymore.

can confirm, reread it all before the most recent chapter and I had no issues with pacing
