Strength-wise, it was great. Character-wise, Zoro deserved much better. I'm not of the opinion that ZKK was a requirement to improve things, but if Zoro vs King was more built up or Orochi was actually a capable fighter so Zoro could avenge Yasuie, that'd be cool.

Dorry and Broggy are both Straw Hat and Red Haired Pirates allies. I don't think they'd fight against the crew unless they ally with Loki (and misunderstandings lead to drama) and even then I don't see them being Zoro and Sanji's opponents over Beckmann and Lucky Roux. Part of the crew is...

Exactly. Red Haired Pirates number 2 and number 3. The usual Straw Hat opponents when it's the crew vs another crew or organisations (give or take a few exceptions).

Insane lifting feat, but his feats are underwhelming. Hopefully he's stronger and more well-rounded.

Whichever of those 6 sees it first. Zoro would work since it was his idea.

Half as much? Sure. Close to as much? No, not likely. Oda just needs to actually care for him and make him stand out this arc if he's actually the silhouetted man and/or the man marked by flames. I'd imagine he serves a somewhat different purpose to Rayleigh if he's actually awaiting the crew...

I like that you have high hopes for him. I hope he turns out strong and formidable to make for a good fight against whoever he faces, he at least stands out as especially deviant compared to most of the crew I'll admit.

I sure hope he makes a move. I really hope he does something before meeting Luffy and before the final saga, would suck if he never amounts to anything till the final saga. Now's the perfect time to follow through with his words, get more focus and for us to get an understanding of what he's...

Fair, but I highly doubt Vasco Shot is gonna have more than the likes of Burgess, Pizarro or Laffitte considering he's treated like fodder and his powers aren't particularly hyped. I agree that where the crew falls relative to each other will only really be clear then.

As long as Koby becomes a top-tier and is able to give Luffy more of a fight than he did last time then it'll be a win for him. Rival is a matter of how much you're expecting, he'll chase after and try and stop Luffy but he won't succeed and won't be the Garp to Luffy's Roger, at least not to...

At it's best, it's really good and it. Definitely got more epic as time went on and Luffy faced stronger foes and the crew did as well, but I'd say it's pretty up and down. Overall, I'd say it's going up but not by enough. Egghead had a lot of iffy aspects, but I still enjoyed it more than a lot...

Doubt it, Queen was goofy but still stood out as the number 2 under Kaido. Sanji faces goofy and expressive characters but ones that are highlighted in their crew. Pizarro fits the bill well enough, getting his arm busted by Koby and getting reprimanded by Teach but still being seen as a big...

I would agree if this was a look back at King in Wano or something but I don't think people are competing for Shiryu. He's a formidable swordsman willing to be underhanded to get the drop and if his haki is really amazing could make for a good Zoro fight, but Sanji already faced Absalom and...

It's a nice fight, the highlight of Yamato's involvement.

The Shanks looking guy. A top-tier. Let Sabo face him (I'm not really into Sabo v Akainu).

I like Sanji and Nami's interactions, but I'm not really big on most ships in the series. They're good friends even with Sanji trying his best to charm her since she can rely on him at times.

Vivi. She's just amazing. Smart, resourceful and determined to help her people. She is weak and naive, but she's a great character and I can't wait for her to reunite with the crew.

V. Nusjuro, top-tier swordsman and they already had a clash where them both having kitetsu's was highlighted. Garling can simply face another important character, not a Straw Hat pirate.

Defeating Warcury would be fitting since that's who he struggled against. He handled Satun enough even if he couldn't permanently keep him down and a similar thing with the group battle, but Warcury got the better of Luffy and I hope Luffy gets payback. He could simply overwhelm him and get...

Enel's too cool to never return. Plus it's not that the stuff on the moon has to link up with important events for the series, but it would be underwhelming if it wasn't. I'd like to see him back and menacing.
