Why did he lose his touch?

>>149727040
What touch? the guy has been making the same arc over and over again.

>>149727040
his touch is fine

it seemed like he lost it during the strawhat reunion and FI arcs but towards the end of punk hazard, the majority of dressrosa, zou and the current arc he's doing great

you just gotta realize the story isn't completely about adventure like skypeia or other arcs were, the strawhats have made a name for themselves and are big fish in a big sea rather than small fish in a small pond

it's very difficult if not impossible to stay creative when you write the same story for 20 fucking years

alternatively it's also very difficult if not impossible to stay as invested and passionate as a fan when you follow the same story for 20 fucking years

>Why did he lose his touch?

It doesn't feel like it's been ongoing for that long. His artstyle has truly aged like fine wine, it's always refreshing to look at.

the peak was in EL. now is just is very lazy.

The pacing is just too slow for me.
I don't know whether he is intentionally doing it on his own or being told so by Shueisha company.

If you think about all the open ends that still needs to be talked about, at his current pacing, it will take atleast 400 chapters to conclude this series.
