This arc has been awesome, but im objectively biased towards the characters featured. And im not even talking about the outside events with BB, Shanks, and Garp.

- Vegapunk is a character ive wanted to see for 15 years.
- Ive been fascinated with the Kuma plotline ever since Thriller Bark, and we are finding out his backstory now
- Sentomaru and Kizaru are focal points like the above that Im interested in
- I enjoy CP0 presence and learning more about them. Stussy's plot twist is fun, and she'a tied to not only Rocks, but Underworld lore, so this arc will absolutely touch on both eventually.
- There is a decent chance Smoker also comes around unless hes with Fuji, hes been MIA out of virtually every other faction in the story. I have strong Smoker investment
- Ive been wanting Luffy vs Kizaru post Wano for years now. Its something ive been saying and the fact that its likely happening is huge. Only caveat is Saturn (which is awesome too), who may end up being Luffy's fight but I doubt he's going down here.

It was easily fishman island for me.
That was the last arc where every member of the main cast used their powers with no one being excluded.
When i was a fan of Shit Piece,the idealized arc i wanted was one where every member of the main cast use a lot of their skills and the villains group is very engrossing,but at this point,this will obviously never happen.

If I ignore this arc since it’s ongoing. I like WCI. The tension in that arc was immense. Zou and Dressrosa (last 25-30% of the arc was so dragged) were great as well.

Whole Cake Island (+ Reverie) was the last good arc. As flawed as it was, overall had an a strong emotional impact, an impressive display of creativity by Oda and the story ended up being concluded cohesively, meaning that the large majority of plot points were addressed and most of the important characters had their character arc concluded (in the context of the arc itself).
Wano instead was a messy, unfocused, I’ll-designed, badly structured half assed arc that introduced and abandoned plot points, barely flashed out any of the characters properly and relied on an endless list of ridiculous Deus-ex-machina (Tama, Nika-Nika etc) ending up failing to deliver the hype.
