However, this most recent episode 4 was pretty slow paced by comparison. They ran through a tunnel and climbed stairs in a test of endurance. If they can't make it more interesting than that, then...I will drop the show.

The Manga is still on-going,so they will have to drop the pace sooner or later(assuming that they're going to finish the anime this time and not drop it half-way through),I'd rather watch it with a decent pace than a really fast one where it will catch up with the manga in a few months.
It's still much faster than the first anime where it took them like 2-3 episodes to reach the end of the tunnel.
When i first watched the 1999 anime version,i didn't read the manga before that,but i knew already that the tunnel episodes were fillers,cuz they were too obvious.
This time it was ok.
