there's the children to save, zaza, killingham, that other guy, or anything else, even chopper is at least taking care of gerd and stansen. Why oda is acting like he wrote himself into a corner and doesnt knows what to do with them? he was so creative in enies lobby. It might even be just to stale them and after the battle is over, loki will come and undo the ice lol I'm just hoping for them to do something that feels real, useful, human..
No one is going to go after killingam with sanji going after him .
The same with Super Sommers they not going to jump into a zoro fight .
They can try and save the kids by slowing down Zaza but that is about it.
Yeah, they put up with him due to One Piece Sales. But there's no way they enjoy his constant breaks. Every break is basically 1 week of no new sales for them. It takes longer for a volume to release so less money.
It don't mean less money since manga sales is not the only thing that bring in money .
One of the breaks was check out the live action you don't think Shueisha get money from that ?
Shueisha is be happy as hell when they get some new HxH chapters and that is be on break for months or year plus .
They happy as hell that OP growing in many ways and Oda can still bring out few vols every year .
While his health getting worst .
If Oda pull a Togashi Shueisha would be crying tears and he can it's not like he need the money .
The man can stop doing OP this week and set for many lifetimes.
