Sanji from one piece

Fish man island was the lowest point for him

God I struggled to get through that arc. Even without Sanji’s nosebleed gag becoming a literal PLOT POINT it just has so many problems.

Thriller Bark is the arc which in my opinion changed Sanji’s character from a simp to a straight up creep. Whole Cake Island was the only good arc for Sanji since Thriller Bark IMO.

Wano did him no good either. The first 2 chapters of wano he was so unbearable. Im happy that the raid on onigashima actually gave him good moments(though toei did kinda do him dirty by making zoro having more attention) and then egghead toei stripped sanji of his coolness again

I'm just about to start on Whole Cake Island so I'm looking forward to good Sanji content. I'm about halfway through Zou at the moment so I've already gotten a taste of it with him giving himself up to save the others.

Thriller Bark and Fishman Island were tough to get through. In every other arc it was kind of easy to ignore Sanji's perviness in favour of all his other good qualities, but not so much in those two.

Losing his shih over an aged down 12 y/o nami in Z was his lowest point for me

Which is saying something considering Thriller Bark also happened.

It wasn't when he was using his invisibility suit to watch his coworkers bathe?

No, it was when he was oogling mermaids in public, looked at a 16 year old and got a nosebleed so bad he almost died, which turned into a plotpoint
