I actually don't remember ever complaining that a fight in FT has been too short, and I actually don't mind it when the fights are extended by the anime.

Sometimes they do a good job, but in this case I believe they expanded in all the wrong ways. They didn't expand the fight, rather peoples reactions, which just drew away from the fight as a whole imo...
