Nobody is seriously doing that, stop making shit up
Everyone knows both are bum, both are trash, both are Holy Jobbers, incompetent regen merchants
Neither Sommers nor Killingham has same aura as the Calamities or Lucci
Neither is not as interesting as even good old Pica
Don’t know about the calamities, Lucci & even Pica 🤣 being better but understand the sentiment
Like you, I absolutely despised the thought of the HK being opponents for the wings as their portrayal was in the toilet but my mind has changed on that since they got their Omen buffs & divine weapons tbf.
For me personally what makes an opponent great for Sanji is first & foremost is how challenging said opponent is for him & how much said opponent can force growth from Sanji. From that perspective Kiringham has invincibility & Longinus going for him. Not only does Sanji need to awaken CoC to able to hurt Kiringham, he also needs to either merk him or put him in a state where is unable to recover & potentially also deal damage to Imu as a result. Then there’s whatever Hax that Longinus has so can’t really complain.
Then there’s the opponents fighting style which again I have no complaints there. Can fly, keep with with Sanji in CQC and is a spear user to boot ^^
PL-wise as well, he’s an entry level top tier at worst so got nothing to complain about tbh
