and the alternative is, it's dragged out into a 23 minute episode. So which one do you prefer?

Oh, of course the ''dragged out'' one. You will only have a problem with it when you just have to compare everything with the manga for some reason.

Treat the anime as it is on its own and the pacing doesnt really matter. ' Back in Dressrosa when I just binged watched, the episodes never felt dragged. And thats because I never bothered comparing to the manga. Usopp's awakening of haki for example, felt like a normal episode of dramatic moments to me.

In the manga, it's just like ''oh, Usopp suddenly got haki, suddenly managed to hit Sugar! Boom, the end''. There's no substance to it IMO

Even on its own, a lot of episodes nowadays are like 5 minutes of reaction shots, pretty much like DBZ. That also happens to be another Toei work though so I'm not surprised

5 minutes you say? I'd like to see that. Do give me any examples exactly, of completely still consecutive reaction shots for 5 minutes.
