I feel like many people have become overly toxic towards this series because they hold it to way too high of a standard. You have people calling this children's manga peak fiction, Oda the new Shakespeare(yes really) and overanalyze it wayyy to much.
Because of this they start to nitpick and get upset when One Piece does typical shonen manga things. I feel like it is really hindering their enjoyment.
Like, even Oda literally said that people take this manga way to serious and all he wants is a light hearted goofy manga that entertains his customers.
Don't even get me started on how autistic the powerscaling can become in this community. The new chapter is the latest example
(Shark > Admirals btw)
This applies to other shonen as well but for One Piece and Naruto it is veryyyyyy extreme.
What do you guys think?
