imo even the goofiness is not fitting
Luffy being a goof and using gags during fights against the villains? yes, completely fine and Oda has done from the start
Luffy turning the VILLAIN into a gag during the fight? nope, and Oda chose to this at the absolute worst time, doing it to the Worlds Strongest Creature
If this was a very goofy villain like Buggy, Ceasar, Wapol, Moria and so on, i could see it, but Kaido is a mostly serious character with his only gag being drunk, which is completely fine
This is meant as the climax of the vs. Yonko Saga, the final fight built up since the start of the Post-TS
and what do we get? Kaido turned into a joke (not powerscaling wise, he is still strong and capable, but his portrayal looks like a joke)

Plus I enjoy the panels of dumb ASF gags but the story/fight "heaviness" is suffering BC of these gags, it's getting fucking stale fast...
Idgaf if it looked this goofy if there was actual damage and consequences but there aren't any fucking consequences. We will probably never fucking see any of these drawbacks from the Gears or the hormone shots which will always erk me, add gear 5's instant revive bullshit and you've got me begging for someone to put me out of my fukn misery
