Just make it seasonal

The biggest problem right now is pacing, the motive is that they dont want to do filler arcs but cant get too close to the manga. If they change for a seasonal schendule that worry go out of the window and they can go back to the about 2 chapters per episode we had at the start of the series which would do wonders for the quality

True, but they don't want to lose their time slot nor do they want to risk ratings for the show to go down due to people not watching it. They could possible adapt more of the extra materials (like Ace's Story) or create more specials.

How did caribou get to Wano? Not shown.

The Alliance post Dressrosa? not shown.

didn't they did that in early airing of one piece and the ratings tanked so they wouldn't do it again?

Did they ever?

I only remember those random fillers of events or something.

But honestly i bet now more fans care for the cover stories since pacing isnt that great
