Controversial Are those fans who believe that Elbaph arc will be a short one still believe the same?

[Definitivo]

Short arc(30-40 chapters)

 

[Wizak08]

Voted 51-70. 8 arcs in and things are just starting to pick up. Holy Knights + Loki and outside Elbaph things.

 

[kumae]

Yeah, jump festa 2024:

So, in 2024 there should have been a battle between two people about the OP, and a long waited one.

Obv. Oda took plenty of breaks for reasons and didn't happen (for now). Happened the same in Wano with the "Shanks' move" and was postoponed the year after when Wano actually happened. Oda has aleays been incapable of guessing timeframes.

However, the words are quite cleat and excluding BB vs Luffy because it's too soo, BB vs Shanks or Shanks vs Luffy are the only two that fits.

But jump festa 2024
In 2024 this guy and that guy will fight for the same thing =he meant the long spread of 1121 the contenders for the one piece
No one will go down before the final war specially frauda auto-self insert and the "D" villain

I’m guessing 51-70 Chapters. Oda doesn’t need to waste time setting up plots and villains because he did the majority of this in egghead, now it’s just the continuation and the completion of those plots.

No lol.
He clearly said two characters (not multiple) will fight for the OP and the result will be "unexpected".

The double spread has nothing to do with that since:

- there was no fight;
- there were no two characters;
- there was no "unexpected result".

The declaration Is quite clear: two people will "finally" fight for the OP and we'll see the result.

Only reason I doubt this is because Kumas a way more important character. Loki feels like a two chapter flashback kinda character

 

[soupongo]

Elbaf will probably be somewhat long, but the only reason egghead took 2 years was all the sideplots and stuff imo

 

[zzShinichi]

We may have Shanks' flashback in this arc too and I'm telling you that shit is gonna last like 9 chapters. Plus we will get updates from the outside world events (if that counts as Elbalf arc)

 

[ShinichiMugi]

I believed that before the last chapter. This Evil Shanks Twin trash thing sadly raises the chances of a very long arc.

Tbh before last chapter there wasn't any hint of Erbaf being short anyway.

Well there was,we even talked about it in many threads,first of all because there wasnt any serious villain present yet,as Loki's stonks as villain were already going down

Tbh there wasn't anything If not wishful thinking of people who didn't Erbaf to be a main arc. Which Is ok, but hopes and hints are different things.

The only argument was the absence of a villain (during EH), but as we predicted basically just as we arrived puff, here the Erbaf's villain.

Erbaf Is the longest promised main arc, giants, Nika lore, Adam, now Loki, the mysterious man and so on.
All pointed in the direction of at least a 50 chapters arc.

So you was thinking that the absence of a villain was nothing 😅 ok

 

[Dragon777]

No: I was thinking that Oda would have introduced one, as It happened .

Erbaf was always portrayed as a big arc, so I had no doubts. As I hadn't with Wano even before knowing Kaido was there.

 

[Gol D. Roger]

It won't be short, but it won't be long either.

[thedarkdragon11]

I wonder if recent chapters affects everyone's guess?

 

[kyejames316]

Yeah, I still think it could be a shorter arc. I'm going with 21-35 chapters-ish.

Depending on what the Gods Knights are here to do, this could be a really sudden and brutal ending. Maybe with Luffy freeing Loki just to get some backup against these guys.

I could see it going longer, but part of me feels like Oda added the whole "Don't linger here too long" thing on purpose. I think he's ready to move on to other things, too.

Part of me is wondering if Oda's using the "Elbaph Silhouette" guy as a sort of "progress marker" for the arc? When we first saw this guy in Chapter 1124 he was on the left side of the page. And the next time we see him in Chapter 1132, he's around the 1/3rd mark on the right... more or less in the "center" of the page. I just wonder if Oda is using that to indicate that we're actually between a third and halfway through this arc already? So, it's possible that this guy will finally slowly make his way into the story sometime around Chapter 1140 or 1148 or so, just in time to essentially end the arc. But, I'll admit this is stretch. Still, I think this guy getting revealed will probably signal the end of the arc, more or less.. We started by teasing this guy, we'll probably end Elbaph by revealing who this guy is.

I will admit, I'm less sure than I was at the start of this arc. But, I'm still leaning towards this being a shorter arc.

You are going the right direction with this I think, except that him walking across the frame is showing how soon he will be revealed rather than indicating the length for the arc.

We will know this week, if the other GK are summoned we will have a matchup for every Strawhat and it will be a 50 chapter arc at least.
