Am I overreacting
we saw very early on what top tiers or commanders can do.
pre skip Zoro threw buildings. Luffy whipped 200t gold balls arround. Enel was about to blast an island into the ground etc.
Luffy leveled a part of Alabastas capitol in his final attack vs Croc. Zoro occasionally used ryou.
other than fancier drawing theres not much different now and then.
or you mean the anime? well the anime went DBZ for sure.
