I literally just started watching One Piece about a month ago. I'm approx 220 episodes in. I've liked what I've seen so far, but where I'm at now seems like a lull in the story (the Davy Back fights and some sea-horse that steals people's memories).
Hoping it picks up again soon.
Ehhh. The seahorse one is a filler arc. Seeing that you're in the davyback arc, skip every arc except for the 2 sagas:
CP9 Saga (Davyback arc, Water 7 arc, Enies Lobby arc)
Whitebeard War Saga (Thriller Bark arc, Sabaody Archipelago arc, Amazon Lily arc, Impel Down arc, Marineford arc)
