Not saying he’s not hella important. It’s just oda refuses to write for others except for Luffy.
I was fully on board with Zoro being the deuteragonist until end of wano. At that point I don’t think any straw hat would be defined as such cause they’ll always just be overshadowed by Luffy.
I agree with the bolded part.
But, removing that from consideration and just looking at the other characters, Zoro's the 2nd most proeminent one, whether you like his character or story or not.
The difference from Zoro and a character like, Vegeta, is just that Zoro doesn't move the plot at all, that is all for Luffy.
But, aside from that, there's no comparison to how much zoro's gets dedicated to him in panel time and plots, as opposed to other characters.
But enough of that.
I don't get paid to defend Marimo head anyway.
