More than half of us always hate the chapter tho
I 100% enjoy reading without leaks, because leakers agenda baiting make people have fake expectations for the chapter. This just completely derails any potential meaningful conversation.
That's why discussions here can be so funny to read. You'll have two people who don't read the manga quoting shit that never happened in the manga, then telling each other they should read the manga. Holy Jalepeno Horse Titties, what Laboon size shit.
One piece is so much better to read without leaks, but I absolutely love the overall community, so I have a hard time not looking at leaks, because it would severely limit my ability to interact with people.
I've spent a lot of time wondering how many people here who hate one piece, would actually still like it if they read the series rare than constantly read comments from people who hate one piece.
My feelings for the series were much more positive before I entered the fan base.
Chopper gets a random combat feat and people act like Oda ate their Grandma or some shit
One piece has a lot of problems in this series, but as a community, our biggest problem is one hundred percent insane haters.
It's like the media coverage of the nba. How the fuck are you supposed to grow your product? When the people that are supposed to be talking about it just spend all their time talking about how much they hate everything?
To be fair, though the nba is complete donkey nuts and deserves it.
There's a giant difference between having issues with one piece and legitimately criticizing the series, and actually hating other people because they like Sanji.
The problem is not people with legitimate criticism. The problem is insane haters.
The timeskip has so much shit you can criticize
