Giants are absolute fodder at this point. There is no way Oda can hype them up in anyway unless they’re part of the SSG or some shit. But even then why should we care.
Wano is so bad and so long yet still is not introducing interesting mysteries or revelations. It’s an absolutely terrible arc
Devil Fruits could save them as canonically we have no giants with DFs IIRC except Kaido technically. But even then, Oda explicity said through Kaido just now ofc that Haki triumphs over DFs and we've seen the likes of Roger, Rayleigh, Garp, Shanks and such triumph without DFs yet all the Admirals have DFs and rely on them too. As Kaido said, Roger conquered the seas with no DF ofc. Ironically if he had Tokis DF, he could have not been "too early" for the prophecy too!

Exactly man, 150ish chapters I think now and what have we gained from it honestly? I expected to learn SO MUCH about Ponegylphs, Seastone, Ancient Giants (Oni), Kaido, Zoans, Samurai and Ninjas, DF awakenings, Haki especially CoA, although Morj was right to say this arc will focus on CoC, it makes a lot more sense ofc and so on.
I almost feel like Oda actually resents us and or is trolling or just doesn't care and is doing whatever the fuck he likes now.
The MC losing and struggling is bad enough, they do need to struggle and occasionally lose too at least BUT to keep losing and even "getting killed" at one point is not just despair but apathy inducing. We also spent around 24 and 1/2 years believing Luffy was a Rubber Paramecia along for it to be retconned into a mythical god zoan whatever.
At this point, it feels like, what else are we being lied to about? What else is fake news? What is Oda also gaslighting us about? The Resin theory was a much better idea than this imo, it would have made so much sense with the origin of DF and thus DF trees and importance of trees in OP as well as the "apparent clues" had before with colour spreads and such.
All other mythical zoans were based on IRL deities and creatures but Oda made one up for Luffys to make him extra special and to have less limitations, which is just utterly ridiculous to me. The fact that Zoans have their own will, his DF evaded the WG for 800 years somehow and chose him specifically is the ultimate fate sealer and is truly, immensely ironic too. But then again Woop Slap did say it might be his destiny to eat that fruit or w/e back in Chapter 1 so maybe we were the fools all along?

I want Orochi dead for hecks sake. How many revival plots is Oda going write???
He's like God Serena from Fairy Tail unironically. Serena was hyped up immensely as the strongest of the "Yonkos of Mages" of FT but ended up being a gag character who died over and over after fodderising the next 3 top tier mages offscreen lmfaooooo.
Also do you remember when he said the one piece story is in the middle around chapter 600??? You cannot make me believe that One piece will end in 150 chapters...
