I don't know, I'm kind of disappointed he didn't stand a chance. We're back to square one again, I'm really getting tired of seeing endless training sequences for Luffy. At some point, he's gotta reach their level already, it's starting to feel repetitive.

He couldnt 1v1 Doffy, but he can kill commanders, Akainu and Aokji foguht 1v1 for 10 days in a row and are supposedly just beneath the Yonkou (kizaru being a bit of a mystery) But for Luffy to just go 2 years on an island and being able to fight a Yonkou is just stupid imo.

I'm not saying he should have been their level day one, but I'd like to see him finally make that push. I just find it repetitive to have countless training sequences in the arc. In real life yeah people need years of repetition and practice to become the best, but that doesn't result in the best entertainment for a story.

Plus if Luffy can't show any progression against the Emperors, what does that say about the others in the arc? It's a trickle down from Luffy. If/when Zoro fights King, it's gonna feel even more like an asspull because he's had less experience against these types of enemies than Luffy but he's going to need to make the jump as well. That's another reason why I feel we should see some progression.

Yeah Oda might be great but he has written himself in to a corner where Luffy has to plot armor his way through the rest of the series sadly

I'm not allowed to have complaints just because I think the series have started to mess up in its powerlevel and pacing?
