He trained to do both, and you’ll see

WCI - Showcase who he is as a person and a chef

Wano - Showcase who he is as a fighter
WCI - Showcase that he is little bitch who's always crying
Wano - Showcase he's pathetic simp who crying for women's help

And as a whole - Showcase he's gag character, pathetic loser with occasional brief cool moments to please his fans

You're welcome :cheers:

Because she was about to kill everyone and I dont get the issue when that was Sanjis and Zeffs literal introduction?
The issue is that I didn't see how dangerous big mom was
She was weakened, the crew pushed her back several times and she even almost fell and died, look at daifuku's face


And all of a sudden sanji saves the crew because prometheus has grown?
Jimbei says it himself it's only fire and he was in the middle of the sea,
Nami managed to control zeus several times and brook is able to hurt the homies
Oda wanted us to believe that the cake was important, it is not the case:seriously:

Jinbe literally says “No amount of water will extinguish that fire.”

And Oda did show how important it was. You’re one of the few I’ve seen say it was no big deal outside of people who just hate Sanji.

I didn't have the feeling that sanji really saved the crew with the cake but maybe it's just me

And yes sanji gives food to everyone, I would have wanted the cake to be so good that big mom would have passed out for hours but oda saw things differently, at least he had some character development in this arc :goyea:

I think the cake was designed to hold BM back enough; however, he still wanted to separate Jinbe from the crew and keep the question of the vinsmokes fate up in the air. Because if BM wasn’t there Jinbe would just leave with the straw hats and the vinsmokes wouldve escape d

Just re-read your last sentence.

The AUTHOR clearly INTENDS something to be important, but fails to deliver that notion because of bad writing.
Does that really changes the author's intention? Does that really changes the fact that what Oda wanted to show is that the cake was the only thing capable of Big Mom away from them for enough time so they could escape?
The reason they barely managed to escape was NOT Big Mom. It was her entire army. Imagine having her there as well. If Big Mom was still chasing them, they couldn't even go back to get Luffy. Do you even remember that? Bege ran away with the cake, with Big Mom chasing him for a long time, but when things got too heated for him, he dropped the cake and bailed, like he should.
The cake was ALWAYS meant as a distraction to send Big Mom away for long enough so they could bring Luffy back and escape.
That's really just it. If you still fail to grasp something as basic as that, honestly, that's on you. I've done my part of trying to simplify something that should ALREADY be simple enough.
Oda wanted to show us sanji's talent for cooking, but it's very poorly done
I already know that, I understand what Oda wanted to do but I don't agree with the way it is done

Oda plans to bring back the vinsmoke later so I understand why he did this

I was a little rude on my last comment so I erased it.
Gonna do it in a more polite way.

The cake was never meant to "KO" Big Mom. That would be simply stupid.
The cake was meant to be a bait to send Big Mom away from the ship.
They needed to stall until Luffy's appointed time. If they still had Big Mom chasing them, they wouldn't be able to rescue Luffy and would die. They couldn't stall BIg Mom forever. She's this unstoppable force of nature and she was not going to stop.
The cake did exactly what the cake was supposed to do. Send her away.
Thing is, aside from that trash waterfall gag, the Big Mom Pirates are actually competent. They constantly communicate, they form strategies to trap their enemies, etc. So, in the end, they were still a massive force that the SH's couldn't simply walk away from. They NEEDED the Vinsmokes and the Sun Pirates to stay behind so they could escape. And that was WITHOUT Big Mom, who was busy eating the freaking cake.
When Big Mom arrived again, the SH's were already out.

WCI was actually supposed to be a fighting arc, not sure why some people happen to think differently. After all Luffy himself was coveting to strike down Big Mom and not merely rescuing Sanji.

Because it was said straight forward multiple times that they just planned to extract Sanji and regroup in wano and that they didn’t plan for excessive fighting

Useless cake that make a Yonko faint and helps his crew and others escaped safely.[/QUOTE]

Except for the fact that it didn't actually make her faint lol. She almost destroyed the ship herself

He trained to do both, and you’ll see

WCI - Showcase who he is as a person and a chef

Wano - Showcase who he is as a fighter
He did not train to do both, if he did he would have specified that this is in fact what he did. He literally said that he trained to run from Okama so well that he learned to airwalk. Where did he point that his cooking skills increased too?

Also he's pretty much going to be fighting jobbers from here on out, so seeing his fighting capability is pointless. He should have gotten a real fight in WCI.
