I have looked through your blogs and I do not see another related to One Piece. If you want to say that you mentioned One Piece in a comment elsewhere, that is fine but that is not the same as writing a blog and I would not possibly notice that. As to that part about FT basically having nothing on FT, I do believe that for the most part, but I was clarifying that I didn't actually say it outright because I was under the impression people would direct comments towards me for it without knowing the full story. If you want me to believe that you came to this wiki today with the intention of writing this blog and did not see my comment on the other one, then I will drop it no matter how much of a huge coincidence that would be.

That which you are referring to about E.N.D. is indeed story development, but my argument is that what Mashima has done to write Fairy Tail's story is not as good as Oda's. The latter's is far more intricate, carefully planned out and suspenseful.

Actually, I have not read the Alvarez arc but from my understanding, the character Brandish was about to leave the vicinity but Natsu called out to her angrily about her subordinate's actions though she is far stronger than him. This was referenced in another blog and multiple users were upset about how Natsu was behaving, saying that he should not have done so. In that respect, he has not changed at all since the beginning. In fact, it is a well-established fact that Natsu does not run away willingly. From what I see on the wiki, he did not retreat, but Brandish was the one who departed after issuing a warning and they chose not to chase as they wanted to help the islanders.

The difference with One Piece and Fairy Tail is that the story arcs do no take you away from the main story in One Piece. What happened to Nami regarding Arlong is even brought up around 400 chapters later. One Piece has far more interconnectivty amongst its story arcs than Fairy Tail.

Fairy Tail does have something of a story and it does have character development. In my opinion, One Piece just has more of those and it does them better.
