General & Others Which arc felt more dangerous? Whole Cake Island or Wano?

[Sky]

Whole Cake Island actually felt dangerous at the beggining, with the Seducing Woods with Cracker being shown as an opponent able of easely dealing with G4 Luffy and Brûlée's speech about how the Supernovas failed to do anything against Big Mom, the Enraged Army beating Luffy, the Tea Party with Katakuri's badass introduction, Big Mom and her crew easely beating the Straw Hats, Firetanks and Vinsmokes. But even then there were holes in this with the second part of the fight with Cracker being botched, Luffy and Sanji meeting again too easely, the Firetanks not being suspected by Big Mom at all.

And then after the Tamatebakko explosion everything went out of the window and any sense of real threat and epicness was gone in favour of too heavy plot armor and conveniences.

So far Wano lacks real sense of danger outside of Kaido's one-shot beating of Luffy and his epic speech about the Ancient Weapons and the New Onigashima Project. The raid really lacks any sense of danger so far with it being just like the second half of WCI, sometimes even worse.

I agree with almost everything you said

first half of WCI was the peak of one piece, pure joy.
The new world and yonko hype payed off. It was just way too good... the good old times, man.

Water 7 was way more dangerous than WCI or Wano. Among these two lame villain arcs, I would say WCI coz at least SHs were in backfoot

 

[Perun]

It pisses me off how Oda has written the headliners and Orochi's forces to be scrubs.On WCI we had Tamago,Pekoms,Enraged army,heck Brulee and Randolph were pain in the ass for moment to deal in the seducing woods an so on...

 

[lee33]

Wano and WCI are by far the two worst arcs in one piece. Both had no sense of danger whatsoever outside Katakuri but then Oda screwed up so bad with that fight.

 

[Marco]

WCI was more dangerous since Zoro was missing

 

[Adam 🍎]

WCI

Luffy arrives at Wano. Brulee and Cracker meet him. Brulee forces everyone on immediate defense while trapping several straw hats.

Cracker owns Luffy and Luffy is forced to retreat and fight over and over. It is only when Nami joins that Luffy has a real chance against Cracker and even then it is extreme diff

After beating Cracker while being dead tired Luffy is immediatly attacked by enranged army and is nearly killed.


Meanwhile Wano

Luffy lands and one shots some scrubs and first real enemy is Holdem he also one shots

 

[Finalbeta]

WCI was more dangerous since Zoro was missing

Yes for a similar reason Impel Down looked extensively dangerous in my opinion, the entire crew was missing in that arc after all.

And Luffy was lucky that Amazon Lily albeit not a friendly place, didn't constitute a bigger level of threat... Kuma calculated it well.

 

[Warchief Sanji D Goat]

At least there are deaths in WCI while in Wano, Oden is still FREAKIN' ALIVE!!!!!!!!

 

[h_zorothegoat]

Oden is still FREAKIN' ALIVE!!!!!!!!

Naww. Scabbards died and they are in heaven rn

 

[Lightbolt]

Wano. Getting one shot and imprisoned. Facing two emperors

 

[Warchief Sanji D Goat]

Naww. Scabbards died and they are in heaven rn

You are 20 years too late son.

 

[Finalbeta]

You are 20 years too late son.

Are you guys basically Yin and Yang? I see a good chemistry intertwining you.

 

[zzShinichi]

The Enraged Army >>>>> What ever the f the Gifters Army is
Even fucking Bobbin was more dangerous than all the Elite Gifters.

WCI

Wano

considering how fail kaidou's crew is, even dofla crew looked more dangerous, and you didn't have tama to tame the 80 ministers

 

[Zolo]

considering how fail kaidou's crew is, even dofla crew looked more dangerous, and you didn't have tama to tame the 80 ministers

realistically bird cage should have viped out 2/3 of dressrossas population

Doflamingo's crew?
The same crew where Trebol and Diamante both went down from a single attack?

The same crew where one of them was defeated by a gag face?

The same crew that had 3 executives humiliated by Zoro with a single kick?

The same crew that couldn't take out Franky in a Four on one battle with a Vice Admiral backing them?

The same crew that where everyone besides Senior Pink lost to a One shot?

 

[Warchief Sanji D Goat]

And yet it didn't scratch any citizens at all which is why Dressrosa is one of the most confusing arc out there.

The same crew where one of them was defeated by a gag face?

The only real deal in Doffy's crew are Pica and Vergo but even them are no match for Supernova like Zoro and Law.

 

[ranady]

WCI because Luffy was only with half of his crews and they were wesker than they are in wano. Plus, Kaido's subordinates are a joke and only brute strength-oriented power. Meanwhile big mom's crews have unique DF abilities which is useful and dangerous at the same time which even make it even scarier.

 

[Just a member]

The start of WCI, then Big Mom became Big Meme and made almist everything ridicoulous, Kata tried to keep up the show but the diaguating amount of plot power used to make Luffy win probably made it look even worse, then there was Smoothie and the final straw, not to count how BM sabotaged her side the most instead of being the pillar of it, was that final chapter with BM singing. Finally, chapter 900, BM regained her senses and it seemed Luffy had to finally pay the price for wrecking havoc in a yonko HQ with half the crew... But it was just fake tension. Disappointed.

And at that point you can't take seriously Wano when we have seen WCI (plus we have the whole crew plus strong allies).
