1) The original hype at Wano
One Piece and YouTube Shorts emerged at the same time. Gear 5 Vs. Kaido was hyped on it immediately.
2) The lack of hype after Wano
The story naturally slowed down. The Gear 5 Vs. Kaido fight was a once in a decade cultural phenomena.
3) You shouldn't expect the hype to happen again
It was a direct result of a wider exposure to new audiences brought on by a shift in technology. It was a temporary bubble.
4) One Piece Fatigue
The normal person doesn't want to wait 200 chapters for 1 or 2 fights that probably won't even be that good and requires a high amount of investment to understand.
