Which was wild considering how little actual world building Wano seeing how most of the setting was flower capital -> generic leftover towns -> generic wastelands.
Skypeia one of the most hated and divisive arcs was way more creative and better than this. Its sad.
WCI was IMMENSELY more creative, interesting, varied and felt like a true Yonko's territory too. Onigashima looked amazing from both inside and outside, that did compensate for Wanko but Wano started off so amazingly well too and really sunk hard like the original Wano itself did too.
Hell, Zou is far better than Wano in terms of design and visual appeal too.
(In before Furry joke) Punk Hazard is miles better too due to the state the Chadmirals left it in too. The dynamic of a frozen hellscape vs a more typical firey hellscape in equal eternal clash with each other and the ruins of Vegapunks and Caesars former lab was really cool.
Okami is such an immensely superior version of Wano in so many ways, its just depressing. And that didnt have fucking decades of build up for it too.
(Yet again Im setting up another furry joke potentially lmao)
