Shame that the crew didn't get the character development, exposition and interactions that would have made the crew more interesting, and how it was mistreated at Onigashima with the plot being so rigged against them and the BMP.

What Oda did to the Big Mom Pirates and Beast Pirates was so awful and cringeworthy, I have yet to forgive Oda for it.
Completely agree man. I think it was TAC who had their title as I will never forgive Oda or another user had it at least, Jackteo maybe or someone else? I swear it was a King fan at least? Anyway that is so much more relevant now, has aged so much better. OP has caused us such severe mental/emotional damage especially post Wano and even during Egghead too lmao, some "final saga" this is!
There was some really interesting potential with Black Maria and Sasaki for example too. King deserved a lot more too.
I really wanted to see Yamato vs Jack, the true child of Kaido vs the adopted son, one who hates his guts and failed to be what Kaido wanted and needed vs the other who is respected and cared for by Kaido but isnt his child and yet still tries his best and sacrifices himself for Kaido, without hestitation/question and thus is loyal and devoted to the end. Both the same age too.
What Oda did to the BM pirates with the whole waterfall BS was unforgivable. Also their mother is dead and we dont get a fucking reaction from them nor the Beast Pirates with Kaido being dead too. Assuming they actually are "dead" too ofc?
Just having Smoothie and co appear in a random panel much later after this, reacting to Vegapunks speech and not even being able to see where they are and nor any explanation for what happened to them.
A Yonko crew unable to get up a waterfall and enter Wano twice too. Smoothie could have probably done some hax with her DF on the waterfall to help them if she was smart enough/not a female character written by Oda or maybe Mont'Dor could have made flying books for them or done something to get them into Wano. Hell if they could sneak Brulee into Wano, they could have just had her teleport them all in with her mirror powers ofc.
Perospero could have made some kind of candy elevator for them, maybe another giant candy slug or something to lift them up or carry them up but nope lol. Maybe even a giant candy bird to fly them up.
The more I think about it, the more my head and my heart hurt.
How did the best crews get the worst treatment? It begs belief really.
