That's true as long as you're counting Law as a main character.

Does anyone has any idea how long this dressrosa arc will still last? Has been saving around 30 episodes already (One Piece is so much better as a binge watch) and thought that I will hold One Piece marathon when the arc is done. Is the arc even done in manga yet?
It finished up in the manga.
The latest episode covered Chapter 776. Dressrosa ends around Chapter 800.
There's still quite a bit to cover.

So basically something like July 2016. Has this been the longest story arc yet? At least the longest within the same place.
I hope after this Oda will do a few smaller plots. I miss the island hopping with more focus on the crew shenanigans. Especially now that half of them are MIA.
It has certainly been the longest Arc in the Manga yet.
1/8th of the entire One Piece Manga took place on Dressrosa alone.

True, it's interesting when you look at it like that, but through the history of OP, long arcs have always been a significant portion of the length as a whole.
At the time, the Alabasta arc was 35% of OP's entire story, and Skypiea was 20% of the story at the time.
Soo.....how will Chopper and brook work exactly?

I was thinking of the same thing, lol. Brook dies and Chopper turns into an animal, I would presume.

Kônosuke Uda (One Piece episodes 1-278, One Piece: Dead End, One Piece: Mega Mecha Soldier of Karakuri Castle) will direct the special
Konosuke uda also directed Galaxy Express 999: Eternal Fantasy,lovely complex,Ginga e Kickoff!, Niji-Iro Hotaru ~Eien no Natsu Yasumi~ movie and majine bone.
Interesting the original one piece serise director is returning to direct this.
Love konosuke uda directing very excited to see him on one piece again and also interested to see which animation directing his going to be teamed up with.
Luffy can probably body people even without his Devil Fruit. He's still got Armament Haki, Observation Haki and Conquerer's Haki.
Unless the fog conveniently removes Haki too.

When is that supposed to happen in the timeline or is that special not even anime-canon?
(I guess they could put it before Punk Hazard like the Movie Z?)

Zoro got played lol, one of the more watchable episodes this arc.
Naruto takes the cake over One Piece
naruto is the only other anime I can compare this shitty pacing to, but the latest OP episode breaks records with its shittiness
It could be worse, at least the plot is progressing at a glacial pace. In Naruto the plot is progressing at an even more glacial pace and they haven't gone back to the main plot for any significant amount of time. THE MANGA IT'S ADAPTING IS FINISHED. Like, seriously.

I heard about this last night during Toonami.
Pierrot are severely milking the Infinite Tsukiomi dreams. Something that was 1 or 2 panels in the manga and making mini-arcs out of them.
Can you imagine what Toei will attempt when One Piece gets close to the end?

I would be actually happy with long filler arc in One Piece if it would allow faster than 1 chapter per episode pace for canon material.
I can see a substantial filler arc happening after Dressrosa ends. It will allow Oda to work at his own (company-mandated) pace, and the
the ending of Dressrosa provides some interesting opportunities for filler

I really can't see it, especially since they probably want to get the other half of the crew back in

If they would finally animate and flesh out the remaining manga cover arcs (in some sort of flashback 
), that could be great "filler" that lasts for a while...

Yeah I know it's unrealistic to hope for it. Though I think the times have also changed a bit and OP is now simply too big for people not to tune it.
I guess my reasoning is: more content = more episodes than what the manga allows for, even if they have fewer viewers that's better than none. But then I realized they will not just do fewer episodes (w/o the cover arcs) but stretch the strawhats arcs out even longer
Here's a Sakuga animation video of the work of the Upcoming Toei animator Takeshi Nishino.

His been working on the dressrosa arc getting better with each scene he animates.
