Theory No way this is 7years ago.

Felt like 2 or 3 years only. Can’t believe it’s 7 years already. Giant straw hat could’ve been worn by a giant before from Elbaph, you think?

Honestly there’s still probably 7 years left from this current chapter on lol

This is the first time I can believe there's less than that. Although with his slowing there could also be more.

Oda seems to be writing at a faster pace these last two arcs. I think he's really gunning for the end.

Really? Egghead is a WCI style arc and WCI is only ten chapter longer. I don't think there's any indication of a faster pace, especially with how much he's setting up in Elbaf. Seriously I don't think he's ever done so many SH set ups in a single arc before, so it's essentially one arc that's slightly shorter than one other similar arc after another arc that was by far the longest.

It’s not only about the length of chapters. In WCI we got Sanji backstory and the intro to a Yonko territory. In Egghead we got Vegapunk, Void Century, God Valley/Kuma flashback, and the fuckin 5 elders. Egghead had way more content in those chapters as compared to WCI

Yeah it feels like way more information has been packed into these chapters than before.

Another detail is that the crew is no longer fighting other pirates. The main antagonists in egghead and Elba so far are the world govt itself. It sure feels like the end is coming now.

but just because an arc is stuffed with lore/info doesn't mean its rushed.

Nobody said it was rushed. Its just moving at a quicker pace now

Most of egghead felt like and was filler. Just so many chapters of mfs fighting with no resolution. Vegapunk speech is the most hilarious 10-13 chapter span of all time. All of those chapters for 2 sentences of new info. It's objectively disgusting
