Some just don't like the fact we are getting this flashback right before Zoro and Sanji's fight against the Holy Knights, and right in the middle of the Imu vs Loki fight.

But I don't see any problem with it, it's better to have the flashback now and get it over with it, than let's say have it right in the middle of Zoro and Sanji's fight against Super Super Sommers and Killingham.
These same people were calling the HKs bums and whining about how uninteresting they are as Wings opponents
 
With all this dark predicitions wonder if we getting some Ginny type shit with Candel :risisweat:
Another fcked up angle would be if the WG and Holy Knights did something ergregious to Candel and wiped her kid's memory to make her the very Holy Knight she should really desipse :josad:
If Oda had the guts, he would make a twist and have Candelle be a Holy Knight and also be an evil mom.

While having the main tragic death be focused on Gunko's father.

Having the flashback mom be evil for once, would be a nice change of pace.

Good point, Super Sommers vs Zoro needs to be completely uninterupted, it´ll be a once in a lifetime fight.

Loki vs Imcel is kind of a nothingburger anyway, who cares
 
I don’t get the hate for this flashback tbh
I don't hate the flashback. In fact, I'm glad we're getting more Straw hat focus within one. Where the issue lies is in the fact that we already spent almost 20 chapters in the past, spanning 7 to 8 months, followed by around 12 chapters in the present timeline setting up the main events we’d been waiting for, only for us to jump back into another flashback. Much of Elbaf’s storytelling, emotional weight, character work, and narrative has been done in flashbacks rather than developing organically through the present timeline of the arc.

Due to how Oda has structured this arc, this is probably the best time to place the Brook flashback, because inserting it during the main fights would be horrible. So far, Elbaph has felt more like a backdrop for historical lore dumps and setup for future arcs than a fully realized arc with its own identity. It doesn’t feel like we’ve truly explored this legendary island to its fullest or deeply connected with its culture and people.

In my opinion, the setting has been heavily overshadowed by the larger global plot. This is an island that has carried great meaning for Usopp and Luffy for years, yet Oda has done little within the present timeline to fully justify that emotional significance through his writing for either character. At this point, we may even get a third major flashback when Luffy finally confronts Imu.
 
I legit think he may be dead now.
Nah. For the same reason Barto won't be. Oda will NEVER force Luffy to deal with his friends killing his friends. It's too complicated a situation with no clear bad guy for Luffy to punch in the face to solve. Even the fact that the RHP and Dorry/Broggy beat the shit out of Kid and destroyed the ship he loved and named after his dead friend is apparently too much for Oda to deal with. Which is why he has gone to great lengths not to bring it up. Lol.
