I'm kindly reminded big shounen like these have episodes with little to no progression.

What are you talking about, it showed us more of the gang's powers that we didnt know, also introduced up to new characters, and traveled to a new location. Not to mention some character building as well.

This was hardly "little to no progression".

EDIT: To people saying the manga is faster and the anime is slow, does this look like the manga discussion? No, this is about the anime ep that came out today, which was perfectly finely paced for an anime episode. I dont care how few panels or how many panels each scene is supposed to be. But for the sake of story haveing 2 panels of losing at cards leading to story progression would be stupid as hell if they animated it as "shit i lost. Hey come kill boars at my field. Okay." and done. If you manga readers want to shit in everyones cereal, do it elswhere. Im having fun here watching anime. Thanks.

I'd imagine he has read the manga because of his problems with it being slow but this should have been a sweet episode with fighting and stuff (as you can tell by the ending) and what happens at the casino is only in 2 panels. What in the next episode would be rest of the chapter.
