Far from it. And I wouldn't be cynical about One Piece, a manga I loved and that was part of my youth, if it hadn't let me down so much, so many times, after the timeskip.

On the contrary, I am greatly enjoying my life as a whole, and I have found other centers of interest and newer manga to read that I'm enjoying far more than modern One Piece, lol.

Cynicism is the appropriate reaction to what One Piece has turned into, especially this last decade.

There is little left not to be cynical about in One Piece. The magic was lost a long time ago; the manga went on for too long, kept repeating itself and the same tropes over and over again; the Straw Hats have become a hollow version of what they were once; the sense of stakes and tensions has...

Given how atrocious her writing was in Wano. Though sadly even if she shows up in Elbaph, I have totally given up on Oda writing anything good with her.

It's One Piece. You just can't be sure characters are dead due to Oda cheating death so many times.

Fight Club. This movie was amazing, with Brad Pitt possibly doing the best performance of his life, both as a funny character and then as a creepy but amazing villain, Edward Norton being amazing, and Helena Bonham Carter being great as well. The music, cinematography, and dialogue were all...

Not even close. It never was, and it will never be.

Cell and Buu certainly weren't.

I hope not. I hated the original Germa genes awakening enough

What would you say are the biggest missed opportunities concerning the Marines, as characters, and in terms of storyline?

I am still far from fond of all the Germa stuff, aside from Reiju, and especially of the Germa genes stuff. I would have given him another power-up for sure.

Well I've been taking a break with One Piece for years by now. Though I don't think that I'll ever fully recover the passion for the manga I had once, at least the postskip one, not since Wano, I'm still looking fondly at most preskip arcs, but my views on most Postskip arcs have become more...

Far too little, far too late.

You've forgotten what kind of manga you're reading. Learning to not be careless is something Luffy should have learned decades ago, at the very least when he got crushed by Crocodile during their first fight, yet this never sticks.

He's been building the payoff for three decades by now.

Why am I not surprised to see this thread in the power level section?

Hopefully the welcome and organisation of the next World Cup in 2030 will be far better than this one

The end with Infantino and Agent Orange with the trophy was so pathetic.

Some South American teams really have a dirty attitude, Brazil and Columbia were okay and more fait play, though Argentina and especially the team of delinquents and thugs from Paraguay was really bad.
