Well.
Oda said he was going to end this in 5 years. This is what this looks like.
But damn. If you were a fan of Kidd....like damn I'm truly sorry. I know we troll characters but that was....that was bad. And I feel kinda bad now.
And I'm a die hard Usopp fan. And I know what thay feels like.

usopp has never had a bad showing and i am 100% serious about that
from arlong park the fact he beat a fishman at all has always been one of the most impressive things to me, he has to work for every win

Usopp hasn't done anything for 3 arcs my brother in Christ.
it’s not a bad showing if it isn’t a showing at all
Now I know how Kidd feels! You just Shanks me!it’s not a bad showing if it isn’t a showing at all
But real talk.
I have been reading One Piece weekly for 16 years. All the way back in 2007 in the middle of Thriller Bark! I love this series. This series is still a top 5 manga all time. And it's still a great series.
But this chapter has got me feeling all sorts of ways I'm thinking of taking a few months break. This is the chapter was really something.

Yeah this is definitely a legit bad move on Oda's part, but I also want to wait until the chapter actually comes out before I make any judgements.
On another note, it kinda shows just how chill Kaido was with the dude in comparison

I think you're taking this way too personally.
The notion that Oda writes in serious characters that he then abuses because he hates is quite disrespectful and petty, and I'm honestly tired of seeing this trend from fans whom Oda fails to please. Kid would have never been an integral part in taking down Big Mom if Oda hated him.
People need to drop the "surprised Pikachu" face and realize that most of the Supernova had relatively minor roles, because they were all whipped up on the last second. Oda definitely had plans for Kid, otherwise he wouldn't have been hyped in a trio with Luffy and Law, but it just didn't seem to work out the way Oda wanted it to, which is most likely the case rather than Oda "feeding into the hate".
Law ended up being too tied to the main plot and by the time his arc wrapped up it was too late to flesh Kid out and give him his own integral role. I'd even argue this much was obvious the moment Dressrosa came and went without Kid in sight, as we were pushing into the core of the story.
I also think people take his defeat the wrong way. Thinking about it for more than two minutes and jokes aside - his defeat isn't supposed to be a mere hype tool to ramp up Shanks. It's supposed to be a TRAGEDY. Kid, a promising rookie who helped achieve something massive and usher in a new age had his dreams shattered just when he thought they were within reach.
This is a new age, the merciless race for the One Piece has officially begun and Kid(possibly Law too)is the first victim to clear up the picture - Kaido and Big Mom's downfall was just the beginning of the end. Shanks is probably way stronger than he lets on and is the last Yonko standing from the previous age. This new age is supposed to be an uncharted territory in terms of power that will surpass its predecessor.
And Kid being defeated to the first on-panel named, serious attack of the most enigmatic character everyone's been waiting for over two decades to see fighting is quite the fucking honor, in a way.
Also, I wouldn't completely write him off at this point despite the note, since a focal point of the story is that dreams never die. But yeah, he isn't getting any fleshing out at this point even if we see him again.

I think this perfectly captures the vibes of current events:
new visual key art for the true final act of the anime wano arc, all the main players here
once again, for the kidd scenario, as harsh as it was, nig still got a multi continental power up, in wano, thats what matters
and
shanks
pmuch, can flex multi continental chars, like nothing, kidd fans (including me), dont worry, he still can solo 95% of the bleach verse
How is it one of Shanks strongest moves if it has no Acoc, no indication of black lightning.
He got hit with an attack that Roger used on Oden as hello and Oden got right back up
There was black lightning in the panel? Atleast the one I saw. It was hard to make out though cause I'm on my phone. Maybe when I get to the computer.How is it one of Shanks strongest moves if it has no Acoc, no indication of black lightning.

Also this was more powerful than Roger's I think.
Maybe actually. Oda usually indicates this with the tip of the sword or weapon I guess but since that wasn't there I didn't notice it.
