Marineford is the very last good arc. It may not be as good as a lot of the preceding arcs, but it's still in SOVL Piece territory, especially because it's just a direct continuation of Impel Down

To expand on my own post, Enies Lobby and Marineford are SOVL Piece arcs that largely influence modern soulless One Piece, but that doesn't mean those arcs are bad.

>>272355931
There's no drop in quality and the One Piece fanbase is retarded. I'll explain it in easy words.
Marineford is a Climax. During the Grand Line the story will be building up to this arc, and when it finishes we return to the usual One Piece pacing you're familiar with in other arcs, which will feel odd at the start, especially because Fishman and Punk Hazard are almost East Blue Tier in quality.
Dressrosa ramps the quality up a little, but it's quite the long arc, but from there on it's pretty much back on track, the buildup now is towards another climax of the story. I also wouldn't take the opinion of the bitter anons that come here only to let nostalgia tint their goggles, some of the TS arcs easily and far surpass those of pre-TS

>>272356133
Marineford is one of the weakest arcs of Pre-TS but it still mogs most of Post-TS One Piece.
Punk Hazard and Dressrosa are genuinely worse than any arc in Pre-TS because they combine awful plot with endless length.

Zou is good, Whole Cake Island is good for the first half, Wano is good for the first half and the very end. These all still pale in comparison to Alabasta, Skypiea and especially Water 7

>I also wouldn't take the opinion of the bitter anons that come here only to let nostalgia tint their goggles
The bitterness only exists because Post-TS is worse, anon. There's nothing to gain from being bitter if there's no reason for it.

Wano was a all time sink in quality for multiple tangible factors
Oda kept switching from one yes-man as an editor to another, they never actually provided the guidance they were supposed to provide and instead let him indulge in his nationalistic fantasy that actually hurt the story more than anything
Characters act out of character, behave in ways they would have never have before, especially Luffy, to put the japanese characters on a pedestal
The arc is way too long, every action takes multiple chapters to happen and there's so much info-dump it's not even funny.
Oda's at fault but the Jump is at fault too, it was a open secret that even made it all the way to television that they were failing at providing any proper guidance and denying it is just turning your head away from the facts
things got better with Egghead because Oda's editor was switched out once again for someone visibly more experienced who can actually provide guidance and I hope it stays that way

Dressrosa was also shit for very similar reasons, though not to the same extent.

>>
>>272356233
Is it a thing where Oda got enough power to shit all over the editors, or is it a thing where the new editors came in being huge One Piece fans so they prostrated themselves before Oda?
Either ways, I'm sure it's a big element why One Piece got worse with time.

Marineford is like 3rd on my list as far as pre-TS goes.
>Sabaody
>Water Seven
>Marineford
>Punk Hazard and Dressrosa are genuinely worse than any arc in Pre-TS because they combine awful plot with endless length.
Punk Hazard is dull, but Dressrosa is good actually. It's as long as it is due to screentime being divided between so many people but all of its set pieces are executed well because of said screentime being properly handled.
>Zou is good, Whole Cake Island is good for the first half, Wano is good for the first half and the very end. These all still pale in comparison to Alabasta, Skypiea and especially Water 7
Whole Cake is good all throughout. Wano is good all throughout too. They easily surpass Arabasta and especially Skypiea. Anons blow out of proportion Skypiea.
>The bitterness only exists because Post-TS is worse
I heavily disagree.
>>
>>272356301
I wouldn't be surprised if it's a bit of both, probably Jump also trying to trust older mangakas with younger editors because they assume they would be able to share their experiences but that's just a plain issue when it's done during Oda's special wish fulfilment arc
>>
>>272356301
They just send their new rookie editors to work on OP because Oda is a big boy who makes big bucks regardless
>>
>>272356121
Fan fact: Zoro and Franky are the only non-Luffy SHs that have taken down more than one mini-boss post-TS in 1on1. Nami's arguably at 0 (depending on how you count barely standing Ulti). The rest has just one, either in FI or Wano.

>Characters act out of character

>>272356326
You do you, anon, but I will never understand not seeing Dressrosa and Wano as clearly extremely flawed arcs with their endless padding. This was not a problem in Alabasta, nor was it a problem in the manga versions of Skypiea and Water 7

I still like One Piece and always will, but for me the reason why post timeskip is worse is because a lot of it is Oda hitting the same notes he has already hit before but everything is more drawn out and has more unnecessary elements that only serve to confuse things.
There's exceptions. Moments like "He laughed" and the Nika reveal are something that feels fresh and like a good addition to the tapestry, but for a lot of it, it again just kind of feels like the same notes being hit. And this wouldn't be nearly as big a problem for me if Oda didn't also bafflingly decided to make every arc a lot longer than it was before the timeskip. I just don't get it.

>>272356354
Arabasta had all of its faction as jobbers. Hell, Pell gets killed at least 3 times in that arc. They had this weird point with a rare water that made their users die, where all you see is Arabasta's main force drink it and die in the same chapter they entered. Pell surviving the nuke also removed a lot of the emotional impact for me at the end. Same goes for Koza if this wasn't One Piece I'd say he was the main character from how many faint deaths he had.
Skypiea gets dragged down a lot for me during it's Hunger games session. Its a bunch of jobbers where most get wiped out on accident because Enel fried one of Wiper's friends.
Water 7 is a really heavy drama arc and it's hard to surpass that. It's also the build up to Ennies Lobby. Sanji's whole family drama felt much like it during WCI to me so I enjoyed it a lot.

In similar fashion, it is actually. I think one of the best decisions Dressrosa took was off-screening the Colosseum whenever it was characters that didn't matter and focusing on Law and Doffy dealing off Caesar at Green Bit and the bridge. Operation SOP also going off, these set pieces then merge into chaos in Dressrosa for the climax of the arc So Dressrosa had the deal with Caesar, Operation SOP and the Colosseum for Ace's fruit before the climax clash. Skypiea had Cricket's whole thing but only Robin is actively trying to figure that out, Luffy concludes the arc pretty strongly but the midpoint is tedious.

Anon, same thing goes for Law in Dressrossa. This has been a constant problem with OP, but it’s way worse in that arc as Law is a minor character whom Doflamingo has many chances to kill but just doesn’t

One Piece rarely delivers on its villains since they usually have to act like retards in order to lose. In theory, there's nothing wrong with "he was done in by his hubris", but this trope is way overused in battle shonen due to how convenient it is, it's pure hackery at this point.
>>
>>272356743
It was not Doffy's haki that made him strong. Luffy was overpowering his Haki easily even in a Conqueror clash. It was Doffy's Devil Fruit that made him so strong, it's way too versatile, costs him no stamina at all to use even Awakened, it's genuinely one of the strongest DFs in One Piece.

Isn't that what he was? The only reason he was so untouchable was because he made himself invaluable to so many important people through either a deal or blackmail. He wasn't the strongest guy ever, even in the shichibukai. Hell, he even managed to reverse the situation of having all of Dressrosa turn on him with the creation of bounties for the people inside.
>>
>>272356769
Sure, my point doesn't change, though.
There's no reason why the DF had to be that retardedly strong.
Let's not even get into the bird cage nonsense and how everyone was powerless against it.
Even had him repeat the Enel heart bit.
He was so much less interesting this way.

Fitting, since arcs are now twice as long while having as much stuff happening. What particularly hurts post-TS OP is really that all of the characters’ developments, flashbacks, and most formative moments happened pre-TS (look at how much of the image is flashbacks) . Post-TS OP should have ideally used each arc to significantly progress one character (like Sanji in WCI) but it didn’t. We all expected Wano to be Zoro’s arc (it wasn’t), Egghead to be Franky’s arc (it wasn’t), Elba’s to be Usopp’s arc (it won’t be).
I still think OP is mostly great, but post-TS it became less about the SH crew and more about the World of OP, leaving less room for these truly memorable character moments

That's definitely an element of it. I think there's ultimately a lot of reasons why Post TS is worse and it's hard to unpack all of them.
But another one that I unironically think genuinely made the series worse is the way Oda decided to develop haki into a second power system to justify power levels and correct Logia's OPness.

Yamato should’ve been Kaido’s and Linlin’s kid. They’d catch up, for “old time’s sake”, and Kaido details his plans of becoming an Emperor like Linlin and Whitebeard, and how he met someone named Orochi and his proposition to use Wano as his stronghold for weapon manufacturing. During this “catching up”, Linlin proposes getting rid of Orochi. Kaido wouldn’t consider it until after killing Oden, still feeling extremely frustrated he couldn’t best the samurai in 1-on-1 combat.

This would justify Yamato’s existence a lot better, I think. It’d add an additional layer to being born to an absent mom and a deadbeat dad obsessed with power and war. Maybe even the whole “I AM ODEN!” shtick eventually evolves into “I am not Oden, but that’s okay, I can be as virtuous as Oden!”.

I don't see how a jobebr that would have gotten killed by mr 3 could do anythign to Cracker. who is at least Doflamingo level.
Hajrudin one of the strongest warrios in Elbaph got one shot by base Luffy in dressrosa, the same Luffy that couldnt even scratch a single one of of crackers biscuit soldiers

>>272357688
Not only that, even Wano would absolute destroy elbaph, Kinemon, Denjiro Neko, Inu and Yamato would completely annihilate those jobbers. Even one of their strongest warriors got one shot by a child Linlin

There was literally nothing he could do against a commander and a former admiral. They'd be the ones who would have been downplayed if he didn't get stomped

Luffy wasn't born the chosen one, he just accidently willed himself into becoming it.

Hajrudin is essentially still a brat in giant years, it explains his lack of experience of fighting smaller foes who are genuinely as strong as him. Even Vice Admiral Doll managed to knock out Kashii, and he’s 150-something years old.

Exactly. Weekly reading changes how you experience an arc, making it unfair to compare it to those you read in one sitting. Imagine taking a detour from the main story for like 2 years for an arc that takes place somewhere disconnected from the rest of the world, after learning about the five Elders, Blackbeard, the holy land, and so on, that was Skypiea and it turned out to be one of the best ones
>>
>>272355975
Fan Letter felt like pre-TS, you are proving our point retard.
>>
>>272358828
It's probably left up to the individual countries what the education policy is (as long as they don't teach anything contrary to the WG)
>>
>>272358931
still not pre-ts though
>>
>>272358652
The main issue with weekly Dressrosa is ultimately it was 100 chapters of another story of Luffy defeating a warlord, something he did twice pre-ts. Doffy was cool and all but it had no business being this long considering it did nothing new

Getting Doffy in Wano like originally planned would've been better, at least Law could've gotten the win, since Luffy would've defeated Kaido.

One Piece sucks as an adventure story though. Almost everything is just a set up to beat up some bad guy. It's a straight up battle series and people should stop lying to themselves. If you want a battle shonen with decent adventure aspect, look at Frieren.

Great way to disprove your claim of being a "weekly reader since Skypiea"

>>
>>272359999
No. You're a retard. The entire pre-time skip OP was built around adventure, island exploration, lore, comedy and just plain fun. The Straw Hats literally decided to go to Skypiea just for fun. Freeren shit will never even reach Foxy's arc in terms of quality. Stop promoting this media garbage.
>>
>>272359999
I will never read or watch Frieren because she tells a character to kill themselves. I know it's a common joke thrown around here but suicide doesn't vibe with me.
>>
>>272360338
Sanji asked Jimbei to kill himself.
>>
>>272360369
At least Sanji isn't the main character. And Jinbei didn't actually do it.
>>
>>272360275
No they were good because the art, pacing and story were good.
New arcs are bad because the art, pacing and story are bad.
Hope this helps!
>>
>>272360446
Pacing and story are fine in all arcs except for Wano

No. Pre-TS was primarily based around freeing islands from tyrants. The characters may say they want to adventure. But these "adventures" almost always come down to freeing islands from tyrants. You may like or dislike Frieren, but it simply has more adventure despite being multiple times shorter.
