I’ve always been interested in One Piece but just can’t commit to that long of a show. I wonder if they plan to tell the story more succinctly (which might be difficult since my understanding is the story isn’t finished yet). If they do, I might check this out
you can't condense 1000 20 minute episodes into a few hours
Definitely, but I’d be willing to bet a good chunk of those 1000 episodes could be cut without losing much of the plot.
Do a search for "One Pace". A good feeling pace is about 2 manga chapters per anime episode but the anime creators reduced that to 1 chapter per episode when they started running low on material. One Pace edits the anime to 2 chapters per episode and has it follow the manga more closely.

Geez the pacing of the original is ridiculous. I could never sit through whole episodes of that lol. I might try out One Pace
