They should just do 26 episode seasons every year. You'd come to see some nice quality, kick-ass anime.
But alas, cause of $$$ and how people in Japan don't seem to care, things will never change.

Wow, this was an amazing episode.
With such little content I was laughing, crying and cheering throughout. Gotta watch it again.
Leo's voice actor is really good.

And because it would break the momentum of the series every break making the series less and less popular. Seasonal popular series only get around 3 seasons, and one of the reasons is the momentum.
! One Piece would need 14 seasons(average of 2 chapters per episode) or 11 seasons(average of 2.5 chapters per episode. Seasonal series standard), around 5 to 4 times more, just to end in Punk Hazard. Even if One Piece turned into an exception, such a big exception is hard to believe it would happen.

I think the amazing thing here is that there are people in Japan who are willing to spend $40 on a 4 episode collection.
I try to support the series financially as much as I can but that price is fucking ridiculous. People in Japan must be pissed that NA gets 100-episode dual audio boxset for $90.
More amazing is that around +1k people have a collection of 184 volumes of One Piece DVDs.
The around +14.5k people with 29 boxsets of One Piece is already pretty crazy, but 184 volumes takes the cake.
About the prizes. DVD normally cost that much there, so they're accustomed with that.
Pretty sure this wasn't in the manga but the trebol and sugar thing where he kept laughing was so unexpected and hilarious
Much like an earlier observation I made.
@Mr.:
They also restrained themselves of stretching that out too long. If that happened in another episode, it could have easily been stretched it to fill a full minute.
I was thinking of doing something like that. Made-to-order Toei filler like that can be shortened or lengthened to however long they need it.
oh my god that video lol, I played that for longer than I should have
Good episode, fitting music choices, and I'm digging Trébol and Leo's VAs. The preview of the next one shows promise.
Not good episode but all around great one.
