It feels a bit like Hajime no Ippo. Too dragged out, too many characters, too much slapstick and gags. And both mangas just keep adding more and more plotlines. So yeah, disappointed. Time to wrap up instead of trying to milk the cow for 1500-2000 chapters.

Not disappointed, not satisfied. There was a time when I was a huge fan of One Piece who eagerly waited for each new chapter.
But now, I kinda lost interest. It’s the One Piece youtubers who remind me now every week (or almost) a new chapter is out.

I so much lost interest I'm barely active here, while I was more on Oro Jackson.

Best the series has been since Marineford, Elbaph is the first time I've felt the series approach Pre-Time-Skip levels of quality since Whole Cake.

Wano was cursed by Film Red and Live Action preproduction destroying its pacing and consistency, and Egghead suffered a bit from that, as well.

Sadly, IMO, the biggest reason the quality has improved is more breaks.

So, the pacing has also suffered.

Art is much worse than it used to be, but I can't attack Oda over that when his body is just freaking old.

Elbaph is finally answering questions about the Void Century, and that's what disgusted me the most about Wano and Egghead.

250 chapters of dick teasing lore, we're 1000 chapters in, fucking show us shit already, GOD. Wano and Egghead spent too much time hyping up reveals then to go "nuh uh, not now, teeheehee". It's scum fuck shitty writing and the biggest reason people are actually angry, IMO.

Stop teasing reveals and fucking reveal the damn plot, you're over 50 years old, the OG readers are starting to have grandkids.

Wano and Egghead just did not respect the readers' time.

Like, how much did we actually learn about the Void Century from Vegapunk? Shit?

How much did we learn about Ancient Wano and the Ancient Kingdom from Wano?

FUCKING NOTHING

Move the fucking plot GOOOOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

That's why I'm so glad Imu showed up, STOP HYPING SHIT UP AND GET TO THE MEAT.

The nerve of this man's stubborn pride to actually bitch about the community making theories about this manga, when he's been teasing us FOR YEARS about reveals only to shoe-horn Luffy being a God randomly in the end of Act 3, UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Elbaph is a relief to me because Oda's finally moving the plot along rather than teasing the potential of moving the plot along.

Hmmm. Up to this date, I still reread pre skip arcs but I don't bother myself to look back on any post ts arcs. I started to get disappointed in PH and it was getting worse with Wano as the peak of my disappointment.
However, I got my enjoyment back starting Egghead with Vegapunk's speech as an exception. And honestly I enjoy Elbaph very much now.
There are still some dragging but it's much better than the previous arcs. It's just the breaks that are annoying for me right now.
