General & Others Is Fishman Island, Punk Hazzard, Dressrosa The WORST stretch of Arcs in One Piece?

Yeah the Sanji stuff was mid, but Oda made up for it by making the best SH the MVP of the arc

Jimbei? He was cool. But not enough to outweigh the rest of the writing.

The Soul King

I honestly forget Brook even exists
He got stale the minute the SH's stepped foot off of Thriller Bark. Should have stayed one of those arc characters.

I mean, getting less screen time than the other SHs is lowkey a good thing. It means he gets flanderized less often.

WCI was enjoyable, cool designs, cool abilities but contains some of the worst writing the story has ever seen. Only Wano managed to go lower.

I'd rather revisit WCI than FI for example, but before Oden, the whole germa storyline and Sanji was Oda's lowest point as a writer.

You don’t get Blue Flames without that Germa story line, plus the stealth black moment , There’s a lot you don’t get without that Germa story line. Plus it kept Sanji involved in the plot.

Eh, WCI really wasn’t that bad tbh. It was pretty good up until the last third, and even then that last third had one of the best fights in the series

I will never get this, like Luffy was just getting beaten up over the course of 10+ chapters before Oda dropped the Snakeman chapter...Shit was dragging on forever.

Asside from that, WCI was hell for Sanji fans, literally broke them to the point users like Chrono came up with many coping threads like the legendary 4th SC Bobbins, Oven being Sanji's fight, then Snack, then Daifuku - who was another former YC lmfao...

It was "hell" because the character didn't get a 1vs1 fight and got relatively few feats even if getting a lot of focus. In retrospect those "problems" sound frivolous.

It was justified at least .
