Anime's/manga's going through every single fight multiple episodes/chapters gets so tiring.
I want to talk about something i passionately hate about a lot of older anime's. I'll use Bleach and One piece to clarify what i mean.
It's about the length of a conflict that has multiple battles going on. For example the Hueco mundo arc/Fake karakuro town. I understand it's nice to know what every single Espada is capable of in terms of power. Same goes for all the other soul reapers in that arc. I know at some point they'll have to introduce those, but please stop it with these long series of episodes where each episode(or even worse 2 episodes) is dedicated to fight another side villain of the group. The best examples are by far Fake karakura town arc from Bleach and Dressrosa arc from One Piece. Whenever One piece gives a map of where every character is fighting on the map, just know you lost my attention.
People like to criticize Solo leveling for it's lack of side character moments, but please give me more of that. Oh my. I know now i'm entering more personal preference territory here, but just wanted to add that.
Maybe i haven't consumed enough media to know a solution to this problem, but do y all maybe know of an anime which structures conflicts with multiple fights in an enjoyable way?
