Break Week Why does Jyabura only get one small panel while Kaku is active in the current arc?

Bonclay was a bigger part of Impel Down than Crocodile was in Impel Down + Marineford lol, yet alone Daz who barely got shit in both arcs.
And he still hasn't been heard of since then.

In all seriousness, Mr.2 got a different treatment and evolution as a character that entirely separated him from the Mr.0 and Mr.1 association and that's great for him as a character. Even by the end of Arabasta he was more of a friend to the crew (to Luffy) than he was "Sanji's opponent".

The seconds stick around in a different way, they stay around as seconds while the rest of the crew disippates entirely, which ironically makes them more important for their groups (and as fanservice/nostalgia tools) even if they're just being used to stand around. Sanji's opponents get "the rest of the crew" treatment.

Is that really true though

Queen got Udon Prison and the Raid

King got the Raid (and didn’t take much of an active role then either)

Bon Clay (who’s a fan favorite) got Alabasta and Impel Down

Daz Bonez got Alabasta

I just don’t think that’s always the case

I may not have expressed myself properly but my comments are about the characters after they become past opponents.

Your comment is about what they got overall in their own arc + the Bon Clay thing I already addressed.

Bon Clay got his own redemption arc and a bigger role in Alabasta than Mr. 1.
Absalom got his own story as a reporter killed by the BB Pirates, even a moment which should’ve related back to Zombie Ryuma was skipped in wano.
Wadatsumi ended up joining the Sun Pirates while Hyozou is irrelevant.
Queen was a significant more prominent villain in wano, and in the plot of the story than King has as well.

You can say a lot about the number 2s, but sanjis opponents have almost always been more relevant

I think Hachi was the only one of Zoro's opponents sans Kaku that went on to be prevalent.

Examples irrelevant to my point. I'm simply addressing the thread.

Now, regarding what you said, "more relevant" is a big stretch for anyone other than Mr.2.
