The post is good (especially about the crew being sideline and loosing their agency) but it is not the right place to have a serious argument about storytelling imo.
It is only weird for the people who think that to be the WSS you need to beat every swordsman on the planet.
In the world of One Piece to be the WSS you just need to be stronger than the current WSS. And the means you use to reach that level of strength is up to you.
That is why the « Mihawk is...
I don’t see Oda make the SH directly kill people but the issue is that Super Sommers cannot definitely be stopped by conventional means.
The guy came back from being hit by several top tiers and he came back (quite fast I might add) everytime.
One solution is that cutting/hitting the metal heart...
And before Wano he could have used it against Fujitora.
But that’s not the weirdest part about Asura, the weirdest part is that we still don’t know what it is and how it works. And I do not get why Oda is doing this.
It is pretty obvious that there is a lack of editorial direction in the last few years (I would said since WCI). As genius as Oda can be, he still need people to say no and to question his plans.
Iirc he himself complained about the fact that most people don’t share their real opinion to him.
I do not think that Zoro will eat a devil fruit but i find the theory interesting.
But i do not see what the fruit would give Zoro except for mobility.
Can you elaborate on what special abilities the Sleipnir fruit can have?
It was the same thing in Egghead, Franky should have been front and center in the Vegapunk’s plot and Vegapunk should have adress MADS with Sanji.
But Oda is choosing to disregard this kind of interaction for the Strawhats which imo diminish their story arc, characterization and overall impact...
