General & Others Nobody cares about op if zoro n sanji ain’t there

[Boiroy]

No matter what, these two carries one piece fandom for good or bad reason, whatever you say
Without them in the chapters, op feels boring

 

[Yoho]

I just want a Helmeppo focused arc 😕

Well, they are the two main fighters of the protagonists crew (outside of Luffy, the MC) in a battle/adventure Manga, as well as the #2 and #3 most popular One Piece characters in the world as of the recent global poll mid-term results. It's to be expected to an extent they would generate a lot of the hype.

Everytime there's a chapter spoiler release, Pews replies are filled with "No Sanji = Skip" and "Mid chapter- where's Woro" etc.

Zoro and Sanji fandoms are far more similar than they would like to admit.

 

[Cruxroux]

I don't give a jackshit about one piece. Once I get Zoro vs Mihawk, I'll stop wasting my time on this show.

 

[Luffy is the mc]

Nah we care about characters that we've been following for a long time. But when you do a flashback for an irrelevant character such as Gunko and shows nothing new while taking multiple breaks in between, people start to lose interest.

Aside from a few degenerates who like the view of her panties, nobody gives a shit about Gunko's ass.

I would say people could be interested in Luffy vs Imu but Oda is going to ruin it with G5 gags, so no expectation here.

So yeah maybe in Elbaf the more interesting characters are Sanji and Zoro, but most people would want to see fights that involve characters like Shanks, Law, Mihawk, admirals, warlords, etc...

W Sanji post

 

[Dark Knight Sanji]

True dat!

 

[matt245]

Zoro carrying One Piece is a given, many people started watching One Piece/Are watching OP rn for Zoro.

But Sanji? Really? Lmfao. No one's watching One Piece only because of the Island's special guest.

 

[Longleg Larry]

Last I checked (I double checked Zolo), they're both there. Problem?

You dont genuinely believe that. It actually comes across as quite cringe ngl

 

[Oliver]

marineford?

Impel down?

 

[Blahmigooo]

Remember we're only a small fraction of entire one piece community
Sanji and Zoro might be popularly discuss in certain forum or other site
But that doesn't mean anything.

Luffy and other side characters have been dominating the panels and main focus
Still people cares about one piece it seems

 

[Loki D. Terror]

I am not so sure. Zoro has been sidelined in post skip. It took wano for oda to give zoro spot light again.

 

[Mackiss]

true

 

[Killerj]

My sword is ready, are the z girls ready to handle it tho

 

[Gol D. Roger]

It's mostly Zoro, Luffy and Shanks.

 

[Dark Knight Sanji]

It's mostly Zoro, Luffy and Shanks.

Sanji literally is one of the most referenced characters by stat's alone. Your bias is showing.

 

[MegaSpider]

Yeah, it's the same across the entire internet. No one cares about this flashback nor Luffy showing up. There's barely any discussion anywhere.

Once Sanji or Zoro come back, everyone will be interested again.

 

[GangOruka]

Oda made this thread

Doesn't mean much. The online activity of the OP communities dropped to their lowest when the story resolved around Sanji during WCI. Sanji may have many fans, but he ain't a competition for Luffy, Zoro, Shanks or even Low as far as "keeping people interested" goes.
