By the way...
How underwhelming it was for Oda to make King and Queen in Silhouette! There is no point in doing so when we know their design!
This is soooo stupid
OMG, I cannot wait for this stupid flashback to end.
It's one of the worst Flashbacks
If you actually THINK otherwise. Let me ask you one single question. During all of those 9-10 chapter flashback. Tell me ONE SINGLE BIG INFORMATION that was revealed??? JUST ONE.
First two chapters were random chapters with no purpose other than saying Oden was too much to handle for Sukiyaki (something we knew ever since Kinemon told the story to the SHs)
And that he one by one recruited the scabbard. and controlled Kuri. Didn't we know that already???
Then, he met WB, sailed with him along with (Izo, Inuarashi, Nekumamushi) Something we ALSO KNEW
Then, we knew that Oden was gonna jump to Roger's ship, and Nekumamushi and Inuarashi will follow him while Izo will stay. SOMETHING WE ALL KNEW ever since Zou.
Then, they find the one piece. And leave, and Roger disband the crew, and says his goodbye to Rayleigh, the dark king, something we knew from Saboady arc from rayleigh.
Then, The crew will go thir separate ways, as Oden returned to Wano... the shogun and Kaido will be plotting against him... there will be a battle... Oden will give Kaido is X Scar (which honestly was so stupid drawing, and also it made Ame no Habakiri cut kaido like Enma, which contradicts Hiyori's statement that Enma is the only sword to cut Kaido, which devalues Enma for Zoro, it's just simple haki feat from Oden, nothing else) ... Then Oden will be taken out.... and he will be executed by Kaido and Shogun by being "Boiled like Oden". while Oden died proytecting the scabbard and allowing them to escape somehow.
Tell me ONE SINGLE REVELATION that is noteworthy....NOTHING
And we didn't even get focus on the scabbard point of view to actually get attached to them to feel motivated about their future fight and make it impactful
What a waste for 10 chapters of flashback. Talk about the stupidest writing ever.
Oh, if that isn't even bad for you. Oden basically danced for 5 years, and the reasoning behind it is simply revealed by Kaido this chapter that "if they went to war, casualties may happen, so Oden decided to not make a move". But wait..... That's a reason for Oden to make a deal with Kaido and Orochi to NOT ATTACK THEM and overthrow them... But Not a reason for him to go dancing naked for 5 years....????
The stupidest flashback with NO PURPOSE and NO MOTIVATIONS, NO REVEALS, NOTHING WORTHY cause everything was shown in those 10 chapters we ALREADY KNEW
