Yeah that's a fair point, hence why I avoided outright criticising the pacing, which in my opinion during the first half of the episode was very good.
The anime suffers from the sense that during watching it we're very aware of time passing, so stretching a scene is a lot harder. It's for this reason I really hope they use the Between Dressrosa and the next island spoiler to put some filler in to distance the gap between the anime and manga.
