Questions & Mysteries Why didn't Oda keep all his promises for Onigashima?

Well, it is not the final arc.

And Luffy not winning with a punch? Lol. That was Oda's best joke. Luffy always wins like that, he might have meant of Kaido's death which he really did with the lava.

Oda has always said " I can't say more or I will hint what the one piece is", so it ain't something really hard to understand. Roger literally said it was all his treasure, so it is a bunch of gold. But the real adventure is finding put what the missing history is and all those things, that Luffy pretty much ain't interested in. That is the reason Robin and Law are in the trip, since the MC doesn't care about that.

The biggest bullshit is the "NW is like hell" statement.
It’s a joke compared to the first half of the Grand Line.
We had villains like Hody and Ceaser. A complete meme like Big Mom and Katakuri was even a fan of Luffy because he won his respect.
Villains like Arlong, Crocodile, Enel and Lucci were way better. There was overall a bigger tension.
Onigashima was the biggest joke ever

How can yoh say it's not hell where so far we have seen a island with ice and fire, a kingdom ruled by a ruthless slaving pirate, a walking giant elephant, a kingdom ruled by a pirate who eats your soul and a slavery island..

Yes but the SHC didn’t feel that "hell" and some readers didn’t feel any tension.

btw we had also slavery and civil wars in the first half of OP

It was not hell because SHs were arguably top 3 in the first half of the grand line and they trained two years before going to the new world.
It they had not trained they would have ended like sabaody, or slaves of kaido or big mom like half of the worst gen.
I mean, that's why we had the timeskip

None of those are promises, they're things you wanted and thought would happen but didn't.
Few readers can understand that.



The guys here created so much headcanon and expectations with things they think should happen, that its a reality check when they realize that what they wanted wont happen.

Seriously, Wano isnt my favorite Arc, not even close to It, and some parts of the Raid were really a pain in the ass, expecially in the start with all the running around and useless Wano characters, but i dont get why now in the end there is soo much shitstorm, a lot of what is happening was obvious since the start, like who would fight who or that Kaido and BM would be defeated, yet as the things started to happen more and more people started to have headcanons crushed and entered in this denial state of "OMG what i have in my mind dont happend? This manga is shit"

I love OP, but its a fucking Shonen manga, of course Oda does some very surprising and cool things, but a lot of what happen in the story isnt that different from any other standart shonen and u dont need to be a rocked scientist to get it lol. Yet some readers put ALL their enjoyment of the Arc in some theories happening, and spend the last years waiting for it and now cant cope with it all being headcanon.

I'm not hyped by the end of Wano as i was for example in WCI when Luffy defeated Katakuri and got a Billion bounty, and that of course a failure of the story, as would make much more sense for ALL the community to be super hyped about Kaido and BM defeats, but i'm not also dissapointed as most of u guys, to me was just "yeah, ok, that's pretty much what i was expecting to happen, lets move on to next"
