I could see Oda writing Sanji winning that fight even after the leg-snap (I mean he's broken ribs and been stabbed before and won) but based on the info we do have and how Oda did have things play out (Sanji's comment post-fight and Vergo showing much more), I'd say Vergo is stronger at that...
If Elbaph is any indication, the rest of the final saga is gonna be amazing for Sanji. Oda's treatment of him could be a bit iffy here and there early post-timeskip but post-WCI has really set him in the right direction and Elbaph is shaping up to be some of his best.
Dragon and Shanks seem to have different approaches. Maybe they'll link up as the final war looms. Dragon appears to be preparing his forces himself as his faction liberates nations while Shanks bet on Luffy but could still be preparing beyond that. He'd probably free Loki himself if he was...
I prefer Zoro busting out strong attacks consistently, means his enemies are formidable. Ideally, he continues to struggle on his way to the top, just makes the final goal that much more of a big deal. Lucci was a weird situation cause it was as though it was a tough fight but Oda off-panelled...
Oda's trying to make up for only introducing Imu a few hundred chapters back. He's gonna keep giving him immense hype. I think Teach will be amazing and Imu's already on the look out for him (along with Luffy as seen with the posters) but I expect Imu to be the final villain so this sort of hype...
Nice. Sommers seems to be posing a serious challenge if he could overpower Zoro's best excluding Ashura. We may see King of Hell Ashura against him which would be cool, I also hope for a range of attacks from both.
Sanji vs Killingham with the Spear of Longinus sounds great. The spear of...
I hope he gets something. Using CoO is a good sign but it'd be nice if he displayed CoA maybe. Oda giving Usopp some sort of a big moment would be nice.
Omen enhanced Gorosei will be crazy powerful. If Nusjuro is after Zoro becomes WSS which it seems like, no worries about how it'll be a challenge. Oda can just have that group as strong as he wants if Sommers and Killingham are this strong.
Guess Chopper and Gerd can do their best to patch up...
Zoro struggling at his best? We back to the pre-timeskip days. King fight was a neat return to form, I want more of Zoro getting challenged. Props to Sommers. No more bum fights. Zoro's at his best when he has to get creative and getd pushed a bit even if he goes in the stronger fighter.
Gaban...
Good effort from Gaban. Shows old gen isn't irrelevant but also we'll see how next chapter goes.
Imu boosting Sommers and Killingham further suggests we'll probably swap to those fights soon. We just need someone to stall Imu, Luffy seems pretty out of it and Loki looked unable to move last he...
Some of the Straw Hat pairings (and the ones that include Vivi) aren't even bad, but so many of these characters haven't had meaningful interactions or moments in years so these shipping posts end up seeming like reaches. Zoro and Nami used to have some nice moments but I feel like the best we...
I can see how Sommers could have worked given them both having themes of passion in their beliefs and linked to their powers. I agree with you in a lot of ways, I do think Oda could've done a lot with the Sommers fight and explored it in an interesting way but I'll wait and see what he does with...
I think it's cool, maybe intentional. Lets us see Zoro, rather than Sanji, against a very expressive opponent who's still strong. Killingham though could've gone to either.
As for other reasons, Gaban already faced Sommers so perhaps Oda wanted more than just Sanji and his parallel facing the...
Shanks seems to have mirrored his captain in finding capable non-devil fruit users to assist on his journey. I think Beckman will definitely have it and Roo could. Maybe Yaspp too if Oda wants Usopp to display it down the line. The Straw Hats will surpass the Red Hair Pirates and the Blackbeard...
Dragon. I'd be happy with Vivi as well getting it down the line if Oda gives Dragon a wind logia but as is him having such an important fruit fits given the scale of his opposition to the World Government. Just a matter of seeing which gets it. Vivi bringing the rain back to Alabasta with help...
