The One Piece manga has shifted focus from Monkey D. Luffy to some of the story’s supporting characters, and readers have thoughts on this decision.
A Twitter user named Sagar started the thread by pointing out that Luffy hasn’t appeared in the manga for three months, and while several contributors posted memes hyping up the Pirate King’s epic return In the future, many people do not express disappointment about the absence. One person wrote that “[One Piece] manga is literally at its peak right now, and then someone actually said [One Piece] Boring supporting cast ????. There’s no manga with a better supporting character than one piece,” while another said that they hoped the focus would stay away from the Straw Hats for a little longer because they “try Aokiji vs Garp.”
Eiichiro Oda began publishing his favorite manga in Shueisha’s Weekly Shōnen Jump in 1997, and the ongoing series currently has more than 1,000 individual chapters. The story follows Luffy, a young pirate captain with a body made of rubber, and his colorful crew – including a money-obsessed navigator and an archaeologist. can grow extra limbs – as they sail across the Grand Line in search of genuine treasure. Oda has confirmed that One Piece has come to an end with the final story starting with the Egghead Arc, but the mangaka also assured readers that the story won’t end anytime soon.
