We just came from wano that had people dying for decades etc etc was nothing light hearted about it,
Egghead had a back story about slavery and rape spell out nothing light hearted about that either and i can name many more eg during the time skip .
Hell if you want to talk about something being "brutal" and "consequential" Saturn dying pave the way for garling who will play a big part later on.
So the audience can be happy the character is still alive. The amount of deaths in the series has gone up over time. More named characters died in Wano than any other arc
He doesn't want to disappoint/traumatize kids reading the manga as his still target audience are still kids and young teens (despite over 90% of the current audience being adults).
That's the disappointing part with Oda - his early work (pre skip) was great, but he failed to let his manga mature alongside his audience.
Post skip is basically just pre skip 2.0 with some minor twists that most Oda fart sniffers try to sell as "brilliant two sides of the same coin writing".
The only new creative touches are his admittedly great ideas for locations and their design.
In the end you get what we have now - a lighthearted feel-good story with no real moments of tension/fear and quite a lot of repetitive writing and recycling.
It's not "bad" by any means, but it could've been so much better and many fans that didn't tie their own self-esteem to the manga (and therefore have to glorify anything Oda puts out) are disappointed bc of that.

VP is the one character that can fully come back as the same person using a clone .
Since they can down everything from punk records back into him like the arc said what is even death to him and rest of the punks .
I laughed hard at how Oda portrays the ”land of vikings” as once ferocious but today feminized, weak and easily upset. Reads as social commentary to me regarding the heritage of some of the scandinavian nations and their current political and cultural states.
For example, many female skeletons from Viking graves generally had stronger jawlines than modern Scandinavian women, while many men generally had slimmer faces that the Scandinavian men of today.
We can see this more clearly in modern facial reconstructions produced by academics around the world based on skeletal and DNA analysis.

Slaves of the higher classes that had a hard time existing and are idolised as being some strong warriors, when they were physically weaker than a lot of people who train today, were better than a strawman of the current modern time lower classes, which is actually how the higher classes at that time were, is that the point?
Post automatically merged:
If that's the point, even in the story itself shows it to be false, Luffy and Coby will be at the peak of strength and Luffy rejects the authority of old and Coby is a hero whose recent attack is named honesty impact,
Edit: Even the strongest character is someone named Joyboy,
I continue to enjoy the artwork of Elbaf! I am interested in learning more about King Harald and his relationship with Loki. I also predict that Usopp will rally the giant children in a crisis.
I have a theory that Oda is bringing people back to life so fans gets used to the fact that no one important ever dies, then he's gonna hit the fans with another Ace level permanent death when they least expect it.

Yo my man here nailed it. The Vegapunk clone is a cheap pull to make sure we got some more lore drop, but I also see that foreshadowing plain and simple. Most likely I think this Vegapunk clone will never see the light of day? Potentially destroyed or just never revived. Wanks and mystery girl may be here to hunt down Lilith.
