Fair enough, I find him joining really hard to believe if Oda's trying to maintain the wings dynamic Loki is an absolute menace from a power standpoint and it may take legit the entire series for Z/S to close the gap if they ever do. I like Loki but I just can't see it tbh Maybe I'm wrong tho

I’m excited especially cause Oda’s been writing a Sanji fan’s fanfiction throughout this entire arc but I’m trying to control my expectations We still have at least a few arcs left in the story lol CoC, Black Flames, and Future Sight in one arc means he has very little room for “new” growth

Are you L4N fr? Lmfaooo Naomi has some competition

Yeah that’s why I included Luffy. I’m a Luffy fan but I’m not delusional lol For most of the pre timeskip I’d say they were pretty much on par Post timeskip it was off and on but ACoC + G5 created a gap and I’m not sure if Zoro can overcome it We’ll see

How does this add credence to the Sanji vs Lafitte theories? What’s the connection? I haven’t picked up on any but maybe I’m missing some

I can’t blame someone for shooting for the stars Zoro being paired with Luffy does more for their agenda It makes sense

I kinda feel bad for Zorobros They’re stuck in the eternal hellscape of being paired with Luffy before being pushed down with Sanji, rinse and repeat The wings title just made it even worse It was Sun God, War God, and Sword God vs Imu Now it’s Zoro and Sanji vs The Holy Knights :josad:

Right on the money

Zaza’s gonna be a raid boss that Jinbei Usopp and co take out probably As for Zoro Oda typically just doesn’t care tbh. He just fights the strong guy that he has little to no connection to

Except King and Queen weren’t really viewed as threats at the time either. Thats the argument I’m trying to make A major issue that people had with Wano (especially at the time) was that it felt like there was no tension throughout the whole war. People are trying to change the narrative now...

A standard has been established, you just don’t find it convincing enough which is fine. But don’t act like it doesn’t exist Most of the things that you listed either barely serve as hype for them or were contextualized over the course of the fight King being a Lunarian was meaningless until...

King’s portrayal prior to fighting Zoro was awful He was coming from getting absolutely embarrassed in a 1v2 against a Marco who had already expended energy holding off the Ice Oni virus King and Queen’s respect in the fandom was at an all time low. Let’s not rewrite history You can’t bring...

I guess there is a pattern with that Maybe Sanji will fight Fujitora while Zoro fights Greenbull lol

Zoro vs King had no real payoff narratively until the final 2 chapters of the fight Like every metric people use to determine whether a fight is good or not also applied to the Calamities that people ended up liking (when Oda locked in on them) “Sink or swim type tension” Right, the same...

I don’t fully agree with that tbh Super Sommers only looked bad against people that were far above his pay grade anyway Oda made King look like a scrub even when he jumped Marco with Queen Nobody really respected King strength wise until his fight with Zoro
