Break Week The scabbards show Oda's hypocrisy

#24
Well I'm not gonna go as far as calling someone hypocrite just because that person is writing a teenager manga for a living.


But of I can give a bit of criticism then maybe it would be better to reduce the amount of side characters and give the main ones more screen time.

Like here in Egghead, idk if those vegapunk satellites are good idea.

Despite them doing poorly in popularity polls, (Momo and Kinemon legit cracked >90th place) Oda still decided to keep drawing panels for them, focusing on them relentlessly, and never giving up on them despite none of them being popular.

But with the straw hats? You can see how he treats the straw hats that aren't as popular, Franky in an arc that focuses on the smartest man in the world, a man who Franky spent the last 2 years learning from in his lab. Oda can't be bothered to give him any relevance whatsoever. He'd rather give that focus to Zoro because he's popular

And this is is how it is for every straw hat that doesn't place top 10, it doesn't matter how close an arc matches the themes of that straw hat, Oda cannot be bothered to give them anything more than reaction shots, but side characters it doesn't matter if they are last place or have no fans at all, Oda will make sure those characters get millions of panels
For me he made the scabbards as perfect as they can be all you have to do is see that

Odacchi is only servicing our beloved Japanese represented characters

Zoro didn't do anything in the arc. :saden:
Why are you so afraid to say that Goofy gets all the panel time(99% filler and unfunny gags) while characters like Franky, Usopp and Nami haven't done anything in years. :kobeha:

He did. DF are fucking dreams? Who the fucked dream about being a Jacket? Turning into swamp?

Not only that but DF are now easy replicated by Vegapunk. It lost all that magic.

And if that wasn't enough you have random people getting awakened when top tiers didn't had/showed just to get beat like they are nothing.

So Oda simply destroyed DF lore, destroyed their relevancy and even destroyed their POWER PEAK importance in a fight.

Its really a fundamental flaw to the one piece formula of hopping islands. We're force fed panels of characters we dont give a shit about that wont be relevant (most of the time) after the SH's leave.

Its hit or miss sometimes you get a Vivi other times you get a Rebecca

Oda needs to tell a story
Side character are needed.
I will be glad if there were less side character.
But marketing and merchandise department will not like this.
Oda definitely wanted to write Samurai story..
So he genuinely liked wano characters.
There are too many strawhats.
Oda should kill or remove some of the strawhats from story.
No writer can handle 10 main character every arc ..

Vegapunk gave us a basic description of his theory of the origins of devil fruit, we dont fully know how df were made.

Also With who wants to be Jacket or swamp,you know that there strange people in real life of who have weird fetishs or who have weird thought processes and one piece has weirder people than real life so its not hard to believe some weirdos would like to be a Jacket or a swamp.
Not only that but DF are now easy replicated by Vegapunk. It lost all that magic.
first the only df that can be easily truely replicated is normal and ancient zoan, vega punk can't replicate logias and it's seem that he can only turn Paramecias into green blood that is used to give artificial humans df powers, its not like he created his own original df, for me doesn't take away any of the magic of df they still gives crazy power and has magical ability to be reborn into a new fruit and tired of people being surprised/outraged about something that was hinted for a while like momos artificial df and caesars smile fruits.
And if that wasn't enough you have random people getting awakened when top tiers didn't had/showed just to get beat like they are nothing.
why are you grouping two normal zoans awakenings with way more powerfull df treating it as a norm for every powerfull df.
