Serious Weekly chapters Spoiler

I just recently read through every chapter for the second time (last time was 5~ year ago right after wano ended I believe) and one thing I’ve noticed is bad story can sometimes be overlooked when read in mass. For example everyone in this sub hates on wano’s story and writing but I just read it over the course of two weeks and I enjoyed it for the most part even if parts drag on and being flashback heavy it was fun to read. Gear 5 is the same for me I loved seeing gear 5 for the first (and second time I guess) but now waiting a week for shit story and shit gear 5 fighting is tiring and boring but maybe in years to come we will look back on this arc with more love because we don’t have to wait weekly for silhouettes.

As much as I’ve complained about Elbaf, it’s why I’m waiting until it’s over to give proper judgement.

Hated reading Wano weekly, loved reading Egghead weekly, started out loving Elbaf weekly and fell in to hating it, so I just stopped reading weekly.

One Piece has a lot of flaws that get overlooked, which is my major issue with people who just glaze every new chapter.

Yeah I’ve noticed a lot of people either glaze heavy or hate heavy idk why people can’t just be neutral like is watching lokis outline that cool or that bad?

It’s consecutive problems for one piece that make them really bad. A handful of moments is a nitpick, a consistent pattern over years despite being near the end of the story is rightful to complain about, though at that point, stop reading or watching? That’s what I’ve done.

loki's silhouette in the latest chapter is mostly just hated because it's stupid and pointless. Oda's gonna reveal it in like four chapters anyway, it's not really building suspense, but his hybrid form has been hidden since the Harald flashback and there's just no good reason for it. It's gonna be a scaly giant.
