Some readers prefer that more, fast chapters mean the story can be more engaging in terms of quantity.
Some readers prefer that slow chapters mean the story can be more promising and appreciable in terms of quality.
But as you know,
Quality takes time to refine the story into proper structure
,while
Quantity takes pressure to catch the story for "active" readers' engagement.
--------------
Quality stories has less or no cliches to follow based on others' work since originality is their intention... even mainstream or not, unless you want to subvert it. For example, how I subvert my story in R-18, Hentai, and mature genre is to give it much action-based plot and necessary uses on "fetishes" rather than a pure vanilla or "advance level of fanservice" for just a mere fapping. Well, of course, there might be worth fapping session, but it is wider than that. Topics, conflicts, tension, drama, or anything are much adding fundamentals to immerse more than fapping. Plus, I have written some women who wants to get naked or more revealing because it is effective on their male enemies due to "voyeurism". What I planned in the first arc which I'm currently writing in such phase is to give an "overlook" of one particular setting. Themes, cultures, characters, and conflicts within its place is what I executed in the beginning, then next one will be the rising tension.
In other works like Konosuba, where the show ridiculed the "usual tropes" in a sense that the writer of the series did a good job to bring satire among tropes. Let's say, gender equality, Kazuma ridiculed Kyouya Mitsurigi's attitude as "plain, boring, and usual protag of most every anime series", not listening the long speech by vanir-possessed darkness because he CAN (or should i say, straightforward action), Kazuma's proactiveness in his likes and dislikes, moral complexity, and anything else. Re:Zero has also followed it in dramatic way like suffering = plot, and totally a quality "show, don't tell" series, but they only tell about the lore and some worldbuilding elements while they show through Subaru's way and others to immerse through the story they drive into.
On the other hand, Quantity stories are pretty much what "Bleach" series do — New Arcs, New Characters, New Conflicts, then the next arc forgets the elements from the previous arc and moves on to the next new one. It's pretty much like "town hopping" trope in every usual MMORPGs. They want numerous chapters even fillers "just to add the immersion"... that's what their purpose probably is, and the quantity causes the series to be rushed like how Darling in the Franxx probably did. One Piece also might overly consider on that since the world is so expandable and more fillers are likely to come and waste time for readers/watchers to spend. As I said before, it takes pressure rather than open-minded time to think smoothly about the flow for consistency around the situation from point A to point B with logical sense.
I think most readers need to appreciate the long time wait for the authors to think every pieces that needed to be attached and outside the box. Think about what, when, how, why, and who. The authors need to formulate the plot and characters through situation that is relevant from point A to point B. They needed to portray and explain how each character act in this or that way through their personality, ideologies, and comprehensions, but I think we need the readers to understand the long-term plan for the authors since "quality takes time"... despite you're professional, it's really hard to convince the readers through how the story portray in that way and why.
