General & Others Why are some people so against Oda showing fights in the manga

[Sora]

Been reading some forums and twitter discussions (sigh) anf realized that alot of one piece "fans" just don't care or don't even want to see any fights on god valley or in general. Why is that? I get that Oda's said something about one piece being more adventure focused, but some of the most iconic moments of the manga have been fights and basically every single big arc gets it's conclusion with a fight. Many of them also fall back to the argument that Toei will just extend the fights so Oda doesn't have to bother drawing them

No one is against it but Oda

These are Oda fanboys. The casual OP fan wants to see as much fights as possible if it involves strong characters.

 

[HerreraIsBack]

Those are fake fans.

No Oda fan boys would be the ones who understand that Oda is creating a BATTLE SHONEN.

They are just cult members who are justifying Oda never showing them anything on panel.

No one would rather have the meaningful moments off panel while we see a bunch of characters doing cardio on panel.

too many casual op fans, especially people from r/onepiece or vsbattles just make it their job to make sure oda's dick is never dry

It's not that they're fake fans or that they like sucking Oda's dick, it's just that different people have different tastes.
Personally, I enjoy the character development and story the most. This forum is addicted to powerscaling and that is ok, everyone enjoys the story however they want.

Because of 2 things:

1. We are in the middle of a flashback that has been going on since spring, Oda wants to get it done with so he can continue with the present.
2. Oda sucks at sword choreography, 90% of God Valley fighters are swordsmen. In that case it's better to just let the anime cook which gave us zoro vs Killer, King, Lucci. Those fights were complete garbage in the manga.
