For almost 30 years, the narrative of One Piece has been expanding and growing into one of the biggest adventure tales in history. The series has been at the top of its game for so long and by the looks of it, it might not end anytime soon. Although the series has entered the final saga, it still has a lot of plot points and mysteries to cover and that might become a problem.
The One Piece storyline has introduced so many different aspects that almost every plot has at least one foreshadowed moment. From Joy Boy’s identity to the events of the Void Century, Eiichiro Oda has placed many suspenseful moments and fans have been patiently waiting for the narrative to slowly build up and make these mysteries live up to their expectations.
However, there is a chance that these mysteries that were introduced to grasp the attention of the viewers might become the reason behind fans’ disappointment with the series. Thus, Oda needs to start clearing up these hidden elements if he wants the end of One Piece to be top-notch.
The Plethora of Mysteries in One Piece
Over the course of 1100+ chapters, the One Piece storyline has introduced a wide range of characters, plot points, events, power-ups, and adventures. And to keep these aspects entertaining, Oda has made sure that they add thrill and suspense to them. This also helps to grab the viewer’s attention and bring them back for the next episode and chapter.
Imu’s identity, the contents of the One Piece treasure, Joy Boy’s identity, Ancient Kingdom, Void Century, God Knights, The Will of D, Sun God Nika, Enel’s anticipated return, etc. are some of the aspects of the series that fans have been waiting to find out about. And sooner or later, Eiichiro Oda will have to provide the answers to all these questions.
Additionally, these mysteries have created hype for the conclusion of One Piece. Fans have great expectations from the series and are quite hopeful that Oda will live up to these expectations. Fans trust Oda to give One Piece a quality ending that will embed the name of the series in history forever.
Elbaph Arc Has A Lot of Pressure On It
While fans of One Piece are hopeful that Oda might deliver a great ending to the series, the mangaka needs to start working on the above-mentioned mysteries as soon as possible. This is because the series has already entered the final saga, and there are still a lot of questions within the One Piece narrative that are left unanswered.
If Oda keeps them all for the final arc, there is a high probability that he will make a mess that would affect the quality of the conclusion. Plus, there is a chance that he might have to leave a few mysteries untold, considering the pace of the story and the need to reach the conclusion of One Piece.
All of these aspects put a lot of pressure on the Elbaph arc, as it is the second arc in the final saga. Oda needs to start tying up loose ends, and he needs to begin all of this from the Elbaph arc. Only then he would be able to solve every possible One Piece mystery and give the series a deserving ending that would elevate the success of One Piece.
