I cant stand a “trust the process” ass bitch, it is not a crime to say oda has sacrificed the strawhat crew’s development for gags and bloated side character explorations!!! He can be wrong and has probably written himself into a convoluted narrative that is increasingly harder to untangle back into a cohesive narrative line!!!

He could have cut the wano cast in half and gave zoro some history. Don’t tell me to be satisfied with a couple sbs answers when I know he is king of written amazing character focused stories. He could have given franky SOMETHING in egghead, some crumbs at LEAST. Robin, BADASS MISS ALL SUNDAY, has been made a total damsel in distress. This rant was motivated bc there’s been an uptick in usopp hate bc oda is too married to the coward/useless gag. I know he can give us good usopp that is scared but GAINS OBSERVATION HAKI to save his captain (JUST TO NEVER ADDRESS IT EVER AGAIN). Everyone says “trust the process” that elbaf will be usopp arc but they said that for zoro in wano and franky in egghead…

I love this story,but that’s exactly why I know oda can do the strawhats justice. We can absolutely trim the fat and relax on introducing so many new side characters if there’s any chance of locking into the end game before this man burns himself out before the finish line.

My biggest fear is that this Final saga drags out for 10+ years only get more convoluted and farther from the crew and Oda having to tie it up hastily when he literally can’t continue on writing, with the crews dreams and fates being left to some finale sbs.
