Worse than blind fans are blind doomers like you who can't even make nuanced criticism or analysis and just keep parroting the same nonsense about the series getting worse and needing to change author.
I've yet to see ONE legit reason why devil fruits being some kind of manifestation of people's desires is supposedly bad writing or bad worldbuilding, specially when you consider we don't even have all the info yet.

Pretty easy really, name me one time in the entire 1000+ chapters of One Piece where a character has any desires of specific devil fruit powers being manifested. The fact that Oda has no prior development of that screams that he wrote it out his ass last minute hence why we consider it bad writing. At some point, your reveals have to be developed prior. Imagine Itachi story had no prior development where we got no backstory of Itachi and his father and the clans issues with the leaf leadership and a few hundred chapters later we get the reveal that Itachi was saving his brother, wouldn't you consider that to be bad writing?
At some point, the author has to do with his homework instead of waiting last minute to turn in his assignment.

Wow, look at you replying back to me without getting personal and bitchy. Who would have thought you had that in you. Wanting a fruit is different than that fruit manifesting into existence. The examples you gave are characters wanting a devil fruit, not a devil fruit manifesting based off those desires.
What would have been a proper way to develop that was to have Blackbeard say something like, "I wish for a world of darkness" along those lines and then have the devil fruit appear in a way that it was ambiguously created like for example blackbeard looks at the ground and all of a sudden the devil fruit manifests and gets created but have BB be drunk or something so that you can blame the devil fruit appearing from BB hallucinating or something like a red herring.

Y'know, this isn't exactly the subject at hand, but I just realized that Caesar may have left a bunch of fruits out some where so he can get Monet and Smiley's fruits back if they ever died, and that'd make sense because as soon as Smiley died their fruit manifested in an apple.
The parts with BB are fair points, but they show that fruits seemingly gravitate to people with the strongest will and desire for them, as well as behavior/mannerisms that coincide with the fruit's nature.
Someone mentioned this before, but WB doesn't actively seek to destroy things, he's a loving family man who will kill if necessary but doesn't use it as a go to. So he didn't awaken his fruit.
Luffy is practically the embodiment of Freedom and Liberty, so it makes sense that he could awaken his fruit eventually.

Come to think of it, Caesar most DEFINITELY made that Devil Fruit appear, because as soon as he expresses his desire it culminates
Berserk does not have good worldbuilding.
And the idea of evil chapter was made non-canon for a reason.
Power system is apart of worldbuilding chief.
I don’t know why you’re bring up Chainsaw Man since that ALSO has bad worldbuilding.

No it's not, you just wanna try and shit on everything because the characters you loved got shat on by Oda.
