sanji has become a gag character the RS helps with the gag
It's not about gag persay
Sanji and Smoker too became the tools Oda uses for presenting anything...
Sanji from SHs...
Smoker from Marines..
The issue is that Oda does that because he assumes "those two are strong, so when this thing happen to them.. it shows the danger from XXX person"
The problem is that the MORE you use the same character for the SAME outcome, they lose credibility by many fans...
Thus, it does not become as effective as it should... meaning, people now are at a point where they do not even consider beating Sanji or Smoker as impressive feat... it became so normal and no hype anymore!
And that's why I criticize Oda can he should shuffle and change the hype tools for different arcs, and not stick with Sanji or Smoker alone
It does not benefit Sanji, Smoker or the new presented opponent even cause it doesn't hype anymore
