Future Events Do we need a self-reflection arc?

[uyuu]

Like how if after Wano or before Elbaf, there is a arc just filled with resting and self-reflection? Like Luffy wonders how strong he became after all this time, being a brat and whether he must shoulder the burden of becoming a man and one of the most powerful figure in this world? The consequences to his crew, how the marines and WG will hunt him fiercer than ever before, etc

About Zoro, Black Blades, his nostalgia with Kuina, how close he is to becoming the WSS, Mihawk flashbacks, possible romantic interests etc?

About Sanji, settling family matters, a dialogue with his siblings, sparring his bros and beating them, All Blue etc?

Etc etc will you be glad if this kind of arc happens? I think i personally will like it, after all those exhausting battles. Maybe we need more looking back, heartwarming daily scenes at The Sunny, the Strawhats talking with freed Wano citizens or new shogun about something other than battles, etc. What do you think?

Yes it would. In general I miss the past level of intensity of crew interactions and it would be spicey if characters wandered about their growths and goals and even reflected about many other aspects with introspection.

 

[raptorking]

yeah. that would actually be somewhat interesting and cool. to see reflecting from a characters perspective and what they think of their growth.

I would love such an arc.
And I have 0 confidence current Oda could pull this off. :)

About Sanji and the leg switch

He should reflect on the idea to train efficiently, he can turn much stronger if he makes sure to empower his CoA haki for example.

 

[God Buggy]

I would absolutely love this.

Absolutely...everyone in this fandom should take the longest, hardest look at themselves in the mirror as they can stand and start wrestling with the ugliness and pain that exist in all our hea-hmm? Oh, you meant in the actual story? Ehh, sure, that’s fine too.

i hope Oda take a rest for like a month, then he can make this kind of arc in refreshed condition i guess

About Sanji and the leg switch

He will remember the teachings until the day he dies.

Despite the joke, I think we all should do that anyways.
