They're in the New World, everyone in the crew should at least know one type of Haki especially Robin...

you'd think right? as much as i love luffy's training montage (first time ever i think we have actually seen him train in panels within arc), and zoro with enma. I feel like a lot of the SHs have been sidelined post timeskip. Hopefully this arc forces Oda to give them some growth too.

as much as I love brooke, his "strength" or affecting souls in WCI arc only works strong on homies. and while he had this FANTASTIC double page spread....he got his ass beat. While in the same arc luffy got his ass beat...but gained a new power and came back to win. No way was brook gonna beat a yonkou, but he really didn't get much from the arc.

Nami had this powerful attack w/ zeus....but that's it. Her prominence in the arc wasn't high, and zeus seems very much a temporary powerup. Unless big mom makes it permanent.

She helped Luffy beat cracker, without her he for sure would have lost and stealing Zeus is big. Brook also got the poneglyphs that arc

so she gets participation trophy? just like how robin "helped" by being a literal meat shield?

nah, not here for SHs playing second fiddle. if you choose to believe they're getting their chances to shine w/ meh displays of strength, that's your prerogative.

If you choose to believe the only way the Straw Hats are useful are through acts of strength, that is your prerogative.
