Jozu is clearly stronger than doffy, doffy got one shotted by king kong gun, Jozu tanked an attack from mihawk head on
I'm not even offended, I just find it dumb that people overreact over an injury, it's just a bone fracture, sanji still had the upper hand, I'm just amazed by how stupid the headcanons surrounding that leg crack is
Sanji was damaged before the fight and fought a fresh vergo, managed to overpower him in a direct clash and even blitzed him
He didn't lose and he didn't win but he clearly wasn't weaker
During wci he didn't get humiliated, at the very beginning of the arc it was straight up stated that sanji is stronger by a large margin than his siblings, the "majority of fans" isn't on this forum lmao, most fans are capable of properly reading a story and aren't obsessed with downplaying a character because he's always put on par with their fav and they feel like it takes away from uniqueness
As for Fishmen island I agree, it was a bad arc anyways
If sanji started the fight with his power up he would've won way too easily
You're kind of forgetting that pre power up he literally died when fighting queen, healing a crushed body definitely took away most of his stamina
Sanji post exoskeleton would be able to get the fight against queen over with in a couple of minutes
He could just go full invisible with his speed, and land an ifrit jambe combo on him
I appreciate sanji the way he is, a flawed character that overcomes his mental struggles instead of physical ones in order to get stronger
But your interpretation of sanji's character is just wrong
He is undeniably on zoro's level despite being slightly weaker, no matter how you look at it, oda clearly wrote it to be that way
And he doesn't constantly loses or gets humiliated like you make it seem
Half your statements are correct, sanji doesn't win as much fights as zoro or luffy
The other half of your statements are absolute bullshit because you straight up think that sanji is constantly trashed on or humiliated and that his portrayal is limited to hyping up other characters, which is plainly wrong
he didn't give haki to Robin to highlight the M3 dynamic , which is still ridiculously dumb to this day considering the fact that she was with the revolutionaries
This is what happens when you don't read the fricking Manga
And I don't get the "reflected on his fanbase" saying he didn't get shit on as much as you try to make it seem is what's canon
He was defeated by doffy because of doffy's broken ability that he wasn't aware of that could even one shot a commander that wasn't aware of it
And he was dominating the fight with vergo
The only thing reflected on the fanbase is how stupid and stubborn some people are willing to be when it comes to downplaying a character for the shittiest reasons
He:
Blitzed oven
Dodged an attack from katakuri
One shotted wadasumi who tanked jimbei's strongest attack
Off screened yonji and daifuku
No diffed sheepshed
Was called a strong fighter by doflamingo
And many other things that I'm too tired to mention
Just because you can't read doesn't mean that your headcanon is even remotely close canon

Just like how he stopped the Maxim for awhile, Oda didnt put it on a double page glory. His nothing happened by Enel's attack got underplayed and people only remember Zoro's Kuma nothing happened.
Again, he closed the Gate of Justice is something very crucial and awesome, yet it got underplayed again by Oda. It doesnt get big page, or a lot of praises, or even a mention later on.
PreTS Sanji despite the canon underplay, still looks awesome because he is a cool james bond.
PostTS, Sanji's great glory is lacking. This is what makes Sanji gets more hate and shat on by a lot of OP fans. Whereas in comparison, Luffy and Zoro gets cool panels and portrayal. Fans didnt shit on Sanji just because theyre Zoro fans, but because postTS Sanji doesnt look good.
Of course, I can be biased because my experience is only on Arlong Park, Mangatraders (late 2000s early 2010s), Oro Jackson, Animesuki (mid 2010s till now), Mangahelpers & WorstGen (current). But the fact that there is much more Sanji hate & more people shit on him does happen in these communities.
