Was it ever explained why the anime quality went up so much during the Wano Arc?

Are they getting chapters in advanced to stay ahead? Did they hire way more people?

Are they slaves out there :mjlol:

It's the most important One Piece arc since Marineford, the entire timeskip has been building to Wano. They probably just put more effort/money into it compared to previous arcs.

I’m assuming they got “interns” and “freelancers” from outside Japan working on this to build a “rep”. Aka the Mappa game plan.

I could be wrong but there is a general game plan for upping animation and its cheap foreign labor.

As long as it's a pride thing. I'm guessing they couldn't move to a season format like these newer shounen. When you've been going 20+ there's an expectation that this will be on every week I guess.

Anyone from Toei reading this let us know if we need to send Batman or some shyt out there though:troll:
