He should write it the way he wants to without appealing to his audience. Trying to please fans is the quickest way to lose authenticity. He's on the stage and we're in the crowd for good reason.
There’s a difference between
"This my story but I will try to give my audience a great experience. I hope they’ll be satisfied"
and
"I know that some fans will not like it but I don’t give a fuck, it’s my story"
Every artist owes his crowd something because he would be nothing without us

Like they should atleast have a little faith in Oda lol. This is the man who said, "I would draw Akainu with the greatest respect" after Bunta Sugawara died.
It's not even their arc yet, where PIS and plot reigns supreme and max disrespect happens.

If someone switches up now, they weren't really on Team Admiral to begin with in the first place.
I wouldn't be on Oda, but one thing you can always bet on without a second thought is that a top-tier's portrayal would never get worse than Big Mom's.
