Well, it's not like an anime episode is the same as a live action episode though.

An anime episode is like 20 minutes of content after you remove the opening and recap and ending. And if you remove all the filler and repeating scenes, it's maybe 5-10 minutes of actual content. They adapted like 45-50 episodes into 8, and the first saga is probably one of the most dense in terms of content.

For the future, I fully expect a 10:1 ratio between anime episodes and live episodes. Maybe even more.

That would still mean more than 12 seasons to go, before catching up to now, with who knows how many more before the series ends.
