Not many series are 5 years long to begin with.

Shanks isn't remotely important.
He's basically a plot device, like Mihawk.

Mihawk's job is to wait around and get beaten by Zoro.
Shanks's job is to wait around and then meet Luffy, or maybe get killed by BB before then.

There's no depth to him.

for now

Why would BB kill him? He doesn't have any devil fruit nor does he own a road poneglyph. Fighting Shanks would just be a waste of time and BB would probably sustain huge injuries.

Uncle Ben.

Shanks was a member of the Pirate King's crew, after he gains enough fruits Blackbeard might decide that the road poneglyphs aren't needed if Shanks can just lead him there.

Or more likely, he does that to Buggy and Shanks might try to rescue him

Kurapika and Leorio are MCs who went MIA from the end of Yorknew City till the end of the Chimera Ant arc

I'd actually be willing to bet that Hisoka's had more screentime than either Leorio or Kurapika

Patience. He'll get a substantial back story arc before he inevitably dies.

Pika's job is to die so that everone cries and Leorio beats the shit out of his killer

Is it ever going to be explained how Buggy went from being the even worse Usopp of the Roger Pirates to a scrublord in East Blue with a pathetic bounty? Did he sit Raftel out or something?

>>153295189
Chapter 0 showed him in Lougetown for Roger's execution, I think it's safe to assume that he just got comfortable and stagnated.

Before Impel Down there wasn't really any indication that he and his crew were struggling in paradise

>>153295155
Using not-Shanks is cheating.

>>153292087
his actions actually affected the results of the marineford war. Yes, Whitebeard was already dead, but the marines and blackbeard could potentially BTFO all the shatterings of his crew.
Doubting that Marco will be important though.

Oda is a hack but hes certainly not predictable.

Did they stop with the colorized comics or did they just nuke every place with copyright? Can only find up to V72
