It definitely did increase its popularity. The characters and story say what you will but people were tuned in more to One Piece than ever and here we are. The anime did do justice. Criticism of the arc itself is valid but the source material is what they animated and characters right? If it brought the hype it did so effectively.
this forum tends to forget its opinions are not the general fanbase by a long shot.

As a matter of elevating One Piece in the subconscious of mainstream audiences, absolutely.
That, and COVID lockdowns providing ample time and opportunity for people to catch up.
The entire purpose of anime is to onboard mainstream audiences and boost sales.
One Piece hit critical mass and exploded because of the production quality behind the Wano Arc.
It doesn't matter if you find the arc mid or worse as a whole (like I do), the anime adaptation clearly captured the imagination of audiences.
