Why is this a mystery now? Like isn’t this the culmination of a supposed character arc? Why don’t we see anything? Why is Oda making a mystery?
imagine Oda actually showed a scene of Sanji doing something on panel. Now it’s left vague and up in the air and Sanji is all up in his feelings ABOUT SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED OFFSCREEN… TF? Does Oda not know how to write this? Does he not want us to actually give a shit about what Sanji is feeling? Tf is going on?
He wants to keep it a mystery so that people keep talking about its possibilities
that’s what Oda is relying on for majority of his manga
this is exactly like “why didn’t Oda show what happened in marijoa”
Why didn’t Oda show XXX is Oda’s way to keep the fans stay in lengthy discussions
that’s a marketing strategy he’s been doing since ages
