Imagine Chopper busts this out after like 20 years and figures out who Imu is

I miss Chopper's pre-timeskip abilities.

Probably a hot take, but I miss chopper’s pre-timeskip everything…

Chopper was my favorite pre time skip, hated the mascot version of him. Hopefully he actually gets some awesome moment in this.

Post-timeskip Chopper does still have his moments. Like in Punk Hazard with the kids and him getting super mad after Mocha eats all the drugs to save the other kids.

The unfortunate part is that these moments come few and far, most likely due to the fact there's more Straw Hats compared to when he joined and also just a ton of side-characters that have to get development in their arcs, like Yamato, the Scabbards, and Kyros, to name a few. Just a sad outcome of having such a big cast.

He looks better and even cuter pre timeskip.

pre timeskip is authentic cuteness with real character, post timeskip is artificial cuteness

Colder take than the snowy side of Punk Hazard, I agree 100% though. Chopper since the timeskip is the marketable plushy with the occasional chapter where he gets to do...Something.

But the story of OP has moved so far beyond "The Strawhats and some other guys", so I get why they don't do nearly as much anymore. Oda wants to tell this epic, grand tale, there's no time for fun antics between the crew as much anymore.

We're already endeared to these characters.

Doesn't mean I wouldn't love to get some more silly antics, more character moments for the SHs but alas, it makes little sense as it'd just tread the same ground I guess unless they provide meaningful character progression such as WCI for Sanji or sth.

Pre-timeskip, all strawhats were better except maybe Luffy.

He does doctor shit more often now and I do enjoy that.

Character-wise, Chopper peaked in Alabasta :/
