I disagree that it's lowered in quality or enjoyment. S'all good to me, and I'm still having a wonderful time reading One Piece.

Tbh gear2 and 3 never made much sense to me either. I got some half-assed physical explanation that's physically impossible and it's Luffy with a bunch of new moves that do the same as usual, just better. One piece never really was about the fights for me.

im enjoying the New World and its concept far more than pre-timeskip, WCI is easily the best arc in OP history for me.

Something was definitely holding back Crocodile at Alabasta. If you think otherwise, you need to watch Marineford arc again and see what Crocodile done there. He was BAMF/MVP of Marineford arc.

I also love the future sight and Haki in general, future sight is probably as rare as Haoshoku Haki. Especially when you consider that likes Whitebeard, Cracker and Doflamingo couldnt use it.

Isn’t the whole crocodile thing that Oda wasn’t sure he was going to go much past Alabasta and then just became a power scaling problem when the manga ended up going much further?

Yeah I disagree with the time skip making it worse or the quality deteriorating. Katakuri is the best character introduced in One Piece in a long time, although I have to agree this fight hasn't lived up to the build up, and Luffy's seemingly infinite stamina has also been getting on my nerves.

With that said however the last few months I've looked forward to One Piece chapters more than ever because I just want to see more of Katakuri. We also have Wano coming up which I'm just as excited for.

imo the WCI arc will look way better when it will be out in volumes, the pacing and intensity may not be well retranscribed in a weekly chapter format

Not saying One Piece is bad right now or anything. But it does seem to have peaked when they were on sky island fighting the thunder god. Or was Impel Down the peak? Hard to say.

Nah. Thunder God arc was the peak. Skypea definitely has higher altitude than marineford.

Enies Lobby has been my most favourite arc so far. I always love it when each straw hat gets a single epic battle (just like alabasta)

It's funny you should say guys because Wiper has always been my favorite arc-character! :D

my fav arc was skypia and enies loby

the story now is too big and scattered. not that it's fundimentally bad or anything. Oda has no choice but to expand the universe, but this is at the cost of poor scaling and the painful weekly wait. The story will progress slower and slower as more attention spread thin across multiple mini character arcs.

that being said I do believe when the volumn comes out it'll all come together just fine

Didn't people say that about the arc vs Donflamingo? That is was a lot better after it was read in one sitting instead of weekly waits.

reading it all at once didnt suddenly increase the impact of G4 which ended up being a letdown, nor did it make the emotional scene between rebecca and violet any less forced and it doesnt answer why a few dozen powerful warriors all fail to hold back the bird cage instead of just going to KO doflamingo themselves

I just reread Doflamingo. It's still kinda awful. Honestly speaking, as soon as he appeared as a physical character, the arc went bad. Bird cage is just the crowning cherry on the icing.

Yeah the bird cage always struck me as ridiculously OP. A cage made out of his strings that literally admirals and multiple other top tier people can't stand up against? Pretty silly.

Did the admiral try to break out? I don't recall him doing anything for a long while.

If I remember right he was one of the people near the end trying to stop it from shrinking.

Can confirm

Birdcage was the most ridiculous plot on this arc. Oda should have add something like breaking it will cause major explosion which while doing nothing to powerful one will kill thousands of civilians and then we could have understand that Mugiwara and Fujirotas couldn't break it by sheer power but just slower it. And fujirotas sat his ass while all theses civilian lives where threatened...Doflamingo arc was so meeeh
