- "One piece" (treasure) is probably going to be incredibly underwhelming. Oda's writing hasn't been the same since Dresrossa and WCI, I have no faith in this dude anymore.

- Egghead was worse than Wano.

- "Nika" ruined one piece. Luffy is dead and is a skin suit now.

- pre timeskip villains are far stronger than their feats suggest, and got rekt by fodder SHs due to bad planning by Oda.

- Enel will return as a top tier.

- If Doflamingo breaks free, he will at worst be an "inbetweener". Dude gonna own low commanders like Cracker

- Luffy > Zoro > Sanji. Zoro is ambiguously between Luffy and Sanji; and the ambiguity is by design, allowing Oda to put him along with Luffy or Sanji depending on the situation.
There is no objective answer, but the closest to reality would be Zoro right in between Luffy and Sanji.

- Wano could've been peak one piece, if it was much longer (say 40 extra chapters).
Addressing all or most of the plot points introduced instead of, and making all non Luffy fights longer, would've done justice to the massive buildup Wano got (basically entirety of post TS)

- Mihawk is at worst going to be equal to Shanks

- Forced parallels are getting out of hand and it's ruining the overall narrative. Just make it vague and intuitive if it's done at all, instead of forcing, explicity and making it cringe.
Roger was cool pre timeskip, when he was Gold Roger. Gold Luffy of post TS sucks!!

- Kid actually was a good character pre Wano.

Luffy and Zoro are equally strong with this dynamic only changing temporarily through power ups given to either.
there were points in the story where Zoro was undeniably stronger than Luffy. Most prominent examples being Alabasta and postTS until DR/WCI (or even Wano).

It could be called a hill I am willing to die on, but I am not willing to debate this with low IQ scum that presents nothing else than bad faith arguments and confirmation bias.

Just a a few example on why I think this (still not willing to engage in a discussion over it):
- Whiskey Peak fight
- Zoro learning haki earlier than Luffy (even and advanced form it if)
- Luffys benchmark character ~< Zoros benchmark character (while Luffy will also get another edge over Skanks so it evens out)
- Zoro got blackmailed into the crew and still only joined when Luffy agreed that he would not interfere with his ambition
- Romance Dawn one shot (also early concept art)
- Ryuma has godlike status for swordsmen, Nika has godlike status for slaves

Luffy > Zoro > Sanji isn’t a hot take that’s common sense

If it wasn't for how Oda goes way into Sanji's pervy and simp nature he'd be one of the best characters, great back story, interesting abilities, and almost awesome personality but all the heart eyes, perversion and lovey dovey nonsense just ruins his overall character

his water 7 and alabasta from lil garden to the end was crazy good

Now that's not a hot take. It's guaranteed unless Sabo dies like Ace too (not gonna happen)

You're one of the few here who agrees then lol

lol you’d be surprised how many people think Sabo will not be strong. I don’t even know why or what agenda it interrupts.

For sanji the thing I would love the most happening until the end of one piece (personally I would love it to happen at whatever arc the strawhats have to fight the end game WG - gorosei, imu and the knights)
Sanji being put in a position he has no other course of action that having to kick a bitch in the face with all his might. would be even better if a thought bubble popped up and it was like "you know what that actually felt great"

sanji EOS literal lady killer
