Really 0 ideas what Oda is doing with him
at least if he was not important, he could have thrown Urouge with the bums like Hawkins and Apoo as Kaido subordinates
Anything but a clean 1v1 is cope.
At this point of one piece y'all should be quite aware that Oda love praising Shanks, he would not defeat Loki in a way that make Shanks look bad.
He makes Shanks own characterization take a big hit, and go from a nuanced complex character to a simpler one
either Shamrock existence makes up for that loss, depends on how he is used and his own character
I think Shanks thing with the WG was a ultra interesting bit of the plot/his character, though it's not the type of thing Oda normally does for a "good guy"
if it was all Shamrock, we lost a interesting plot
I will temptingly say that the new Shounens deal with woman just a litleeee better, the the big 3 and DBZ and quite of the classics can't write woman well
Though some like MHA still treat them as token or trophies for the MC
Kaido is a villain with so much build up he should had been the Aizen/Madara of one piece.
But he just brute villain number 765
You can't have a entire saga dedicated to someone like Hidan or Nnoitra
Ki is simple and it works, Reiatsu never do anything interesting with Kido, so it's just Zanpakuto.
Both are way more consistent than Haki.
You don't have to wonder if Goku is not using God Ki for example, or if a Shinigami is or not using their Zanpakuto power
Cheap ass power system, Oda don't explain to he can do whatever he wants with it.
ACOC being just turbo COA
Inconsistency of when characters are using haki or not
Haki came because Oda needed to deal with the overpowered fruits, but he went too far with it
We put much more time thinking...
