But, generally, i agree. Marley arc was 16 chapters long. The final arc will be at least 28. If they are going to make 1 cour per arc, then it will feel really weird. It's possible that they might actually adapt it all. However, if they are going to split it into 2 cours, i'd say the best thing to do is to adapt chapters 91-110 and then 111-134/5 whatever. I pretty much thought that it was pre-animated, as an example on a specific shot an important visual element is missing when it's supposed to be a big one (on the second 115 shot). At least, some of the shots aren't fully animated, as an example some of the shots from chapter 122 looks a bit "too simple", they don't have any details at all.

But anyway, what do you all think about the new artstyle ? Personnally, I'm not really decided yet. I'm too used to the previous artstyle, I need to get used to the new one before I give a definitive opinion. Especially as some shots feels not definitive at all, and for others, the light was really bad (the two shots from 115).

And also, I noticed that there's Kohta Yamamoto as composer. Is he only composing the trailer's music or is he the composer for the whole season ? Same as the artstyle, we'll need to get used to the new musicstyle. (I'm not discrediting his work at all, I don't know him, I'll look for his work later to get an opinion about him). Maybe he won't be alone.
