Current Events Why King vs Sanji made more sense then Sanji vs Queen...

You must be thinking that Zoro attacking Apoo is more impressive than Sanji attacking Queen cuz it "bLEeD mORe"
There is barely blood here, thats his moustache, Sanji not only did much more damage but Marco wasn't holding Queen and asking Sanji to "give his best shot", it's implied that Chopper couldn't damage Queen by any means in the next chapters. Sanji made Queen bleed much more, you just can't see it clearly cuz it wasn't the main point of the event.

I never said Queen was trash (most likely the opposite) i barely even see Sanji fans saying that, and yes, the difference between them never showed to be a big deal, but the opposite (aside from their personalities and DF powers/fighting style)
Just take a look on some olds posts, its funny.
And no, king is stronger than queen,its how the hierarchy of the beast pirates works.

Barely, thats not what the manga is showing, this is not like trying to compare Katakuri and Smoothie, it's a totally different thing with King and Queen
No, what manga is showing is that he’s considerably stronger.Marco has to deal with him,while chopper was facing the weaker and was doing good (except when perosperos joins the fight).
In any of the yonkou crews the yc1 is much stronger than others yc’s.
Ben beckman >>> other red haired pirates
Marco >>>> wb commanders
Katakuri >>>> smoothie and cracker
Rayleigh >>>> other roger pirates

Wasn't there legitimate build up for both Sanji vs Queen and Sanji vs King? I don't think it's exactly poor writing since Oda gave hints for both fights. Unfortunately one side of the fandom was going to be disappointed. I say this as someone who 100% supported Sanji vs King. I am still excited to see Sanji vs Queen.

Headcanon, and you're completely ignoring what Queen was doing to Chopper willingly, even with Marco's huge assistance, he even showed to like torture and sadistic games since Udon. King and Queen were being presented as close to each other since their very first introduction, both of them like to clown Jack, both of them are designed to major important tasks, and Queen's feats at the moment are even more impressive cuz he clashed with Big Mom briefly. And Marco also treated them as pretty much equals everytime they were onscreen, King was the one who engaged on Marco first, willingly.

This may make sense if you're comparing Katakuri and Smoothie for example, since Smoothie looks less impressive than Cracker, thats not the case with the Beast Pirates

That Sanji and King clash made their future fight less probable as it's a common theme that Sanji doesn't meet his matchup until they fight.

Stop writing essays dude, It's clear, Oda didn't make Sanji fight King because King is stronger, Are you opposing Oda's opinion? lmao

Nah, he made Sanji fight Queen because he created a connection between them, looking at it more superficially it makes sense Sanji match-up against King (including Marco), aesthetically speaking, than against Queen, atleast for now. The portrayal of King and Queen shows that they are very close to each other.

'Made a connection', Okay so why were you on the Sanji vs King train then if he made a connection? That just means you have double digit IQ. Only way for me to scale down King near Queen is to see nerfed Zoro beating him.

That's implying Oda creates fights strictly based off of power, which isn't true. Oda is creating parallels here back to Enies Lobby where Sanji gets beaten up by a woman (then Khalifa, now Black Maria), saved by a woman (then Nami, now Robin), then goes to save weaker SH from stronger opponent (then Ussop via Jyabura, now Chopper via Queen), said stronger opponent gets kicked back as Sanji gives a quote and encouragement (then Ussop, now Chopper of course).

Then, there are also the connections Oda has woven into Queen such as his connection with Judge, and prior statement stating that he should take out the "2 strongest (Sanji; Zolo)".

With these in mind it is unreasonable to say that Oda didn't make Sanji fight King chiefly due to powerlevels, Sanji's physical power, CoO and speed are clearly comparable to King especially with RS.

There were multiple connections being made here, Sanji could have fought King due to their prior interaction and obvious similarities or he could have made Sanji fight Queen due to his Judge connection and similarities with the technological similarities with the Raid Suit.

In any case, besides the namesake of King over the Queen, there is no feats or anything that put King substantially higher than Queen. Going off of feats, and constant portrayal of King and Queen being a duo, they are roughly equal even if King is exactly stronger.
