Raid lacks tension:
*Gifters became allies.
*Kaido turned Orochi into an enemy.
*Queen turned the pleasures into foes.
*King attacked his subordinates.
*No one died on the alliances side.
*Big Mom deserved a better fight.
*King deserved a bounty reveal and more hype.
*Brook,Nami and Ussop got no real fights.
*The Numbers are a literal joke.
*Kidd displayed 0 haki and beat BM.
*Perospero and Jack deserved more fight panels.
*CP0 are incompetent as assassins.
*BMP didn't make any move yet.
*Marco didn't do shit.
*No scabbard got killed yet.
*Lots of fake deaths.
*No Kaido flashback yet.
*What or Where is the Lurking Legend?

This isn’t what Oda said. He said he never planned for chapter 1000 to be special.
Meaning chapter 1000 could’ve been any random thing like Luffy still running up the stairs or it could’ve been the events of roof piece having already started in a previous chapter
The editors told Oda to make chapter 1000 special so he adjusted the pacing of the story to have Luffy arrive on the roof at chapter 1000… That’s all

One thing for sure is that big mom is trash and you can't change my mind. The fact that she lost vs an injured kid and law while she was fresh smells like bs to me. The way she got injured so easily and seemed so incompetent fighting was too much for me. Easily the worst sh*t in wano. She was even more useless on the RT.
Also one another thing that will never change to me is the overhyped roofpiece. Felt more like a luffy and zoro showcase featuring the other rather than sn intense 5v2. Hell even 2 felt like too much. Kaido's base barely did anything, but his dragon form was a joke. Hybrid was nice, but wasnt really enough. Luffy's zenkai boosts is something else. I almost want to compare it to ft's zenkai boost.How the dealt with bm felt way too easy.
Yes we got hype moments on the roof, but overall it could have been way better. Just my thoughts. But BM's performance pisses me off my god.

Tension is not the random death of characters, but when an audience desperately does NOT want a character to die while simultaneously knowing that the author has no qualms in killing said character. This goes for more than just character death, tension can only exist when the reader cares for something and doesn't want it "ruined". Oda did not make us deeply care for the life and victory of Wanos side characters, we all know the main cast won't die or lose but we don't know that for the rest, yet none of us are invested in them on any level so tension becomes nigh impossible to produce.
For me, the only fights that had Real tensions are roofpiece, zoro vs king, and Robin fight, I would also mention killer v Hawkins.
Tension for me is when you dont know whats going to happen. Zoro was really struggling vs king, and he started loosing faith in himself, which put him in a really Bad situation, chapter 1033 was incredible in building tension in whole one piece. Everybody wanted the battle to carry on, and team SN was unveiling their abilities, countering some yonku abilities, and it was really intense. I just remind you that zoro is currently KO from damage sustained during roof battle. Robin fight was 100% tension for me, thé best fight for Robin ever. Killer fight was also good , though it s a minor fight.
For me, I dont see any tension in Luffy vs kaido cause After +1000 chapters, everybody is used to Luffy shitty plot armor. Plus, Luffy was Always shown to be on pair since chapter 1000!! Remember Him punching kaido at chapter 1000, then he is kaoed in a mere second, and comes back a little later. Remember the few chapters before his last KO, hé was super ok, holding kaido, everybody thought it would be fine, then he Lost, but there was no buildup for his defeat (much his previous L which was offscreened and kaido threw Him in the ocean): ni build UP for tension, Oda wants to wank his mc, so his fanbase Can be happy, Luffy doing well against kaido, then Luffy loses. In this regard, Thats why I like zoro vs king despite it being too short

Big Mom should have stayed out of it. Worst of all, she was alone (well, Perospero too for stupid revenge), while her crew is chilling somewhere. And her defeat was stupid, even if Law was hax af. Look at how WB went down, look at how Kaido will. Shes really worthy of Jacks nickname, Dragdown.
Wasting panels, chapters on useless plot points. Flashback too long for a dead character. Orochi was nice, but he was made the mastermind when it should be Kaido. Kaido felt out of the arc until he killed Orochi. Hes the main villain, Orochi should have been a strong subordinate to him, not a good for nothing who planned the countrys demise. Even better if he was a strong retainer of Oden and betrayed him.
Revivals. Defeated characters coming back. Kanjuro was defeated when? Around ch.990? Then 50 chapters later hes still around wasting panels. Kinemon and the rest, they should have stayed down. Raizo vs Fuka is too long for 2 irrelevant characters.
And we could go on and on. All this and Oda is like "gotta skip plot points, im afraid i wont be able to finish OP in time". Yeah well obviously, who cares about Elbaf anyway. Revos. Shanks. No time for them, gotta show all these gifters and go straight for final war
