NICO ROBIN
She hasn’t had a fight in 18 years. Very little action post timeskip. Her and Usopp kind of got outmaneuvered by Trebol and Sugar.
Usopp still got his moment but again it leaves a bit to be desired from a combat standpoint, same for Robin.
Brook has never really had a real fight period, he and Chopper lost to Perospero.
Now Robin and Brook who needed to be saved from competent people before are fighting against Black Maria, a Tobiroppo, and will likely end up winning somehow.
Franky
Went from tag teaming Baby 5 and Buffalo with Nami and Usopp and fighting Senior Pink, very low ranking members of Doflamingo’s crew.
Now he seemingly defeated Sasaki, a Tobiroppo.
Now we could just say maybe Oda has been saving the crew’s real strength/abilities since the Timeskip, but even if that was the case, how do we fell about that?
And mind you Luffy’s crew is fighting characters who should be on a similar tier to ones Luffy has fought not too long ago unlike pre timeskip.
Is the growth of the crew too fast/rushed in Wano? Or does the growth feel natural? What do you think?
