Zoro Worshipper
Ryuma is allegedly stronger than Mihawk and even Roger

Oda won't be satisfied with the notion of Zoro surpassing Mihawk and yet have these two standing above him, expecially for how much Zoro admires Ryuma's deeds
 
Many readers will never be able to properly enjoy this series because they desperately want it to be like this:



Even though it is and will always be like this:

Very well said.

Imho there are two stances that one must accept. After that one can truly enjoy OP.

1) Fun has always been Oda's calling card. It's way more important to him than logic, powerscaling etc. and he writes his manga this way. He just doesn't care much about powerscaling for example. If something is fun (in his mind) and fits the plot, he will write it,no matter if there are certain logic or powerscaling problems.

2) OP is a well written shonen manga. The world building is top notch. It is nothing groundbreaking or even special on terms of storywriting though. There are quite a few shonen that are comfortably better in that department. This doesn't mean OP is bad in the slightest btw, on the contrary: It's still well written, just not what most diehard fans want it to be (a flawless masterpiece).
