All One Piece anime filler, listed

Shave a few hours off the watch time.

One Piece is, without a doubt, an incredible piece of anime artistry. It’s funny, moving, and a joy to watch. However, with over 1,000 episodes and more still coming, that’s a lot of time to sink into one show. Thankfully, if you only want the vitally important details, you can skip some bits.

Look, I know; if you’re really into something then you’re likely to want to watch every single episode and soak in all the information given to you. But with One Piece episodes averaging at about 24 minutes an episode, that’s over 440 hours of watch time. Not everyone has the time (or the attention span) to commit to that, myself included. 

Thankfully, there is a lot of filler material in the One Piece anime. These arcs don’t add much to the overall plot of the show, meaning that you won’t miss out on anything vital if you don’t watch them.
