Well, I don't follow the series but I've been hearing complains that "SnK has been getting shitty lately" and it's nowhere near the number of chapters One Piece has(and probably it never will). If it's getting shitty NOW, I doubt its sales will remain as high as before.

And I don't see why any series has to "teach Oda a lesson". He remains true to his series and, as you said, OP has always been OP, it's not like it started out as something and then turned to something different, like Bleach. If you didn't like what it offered from the very beginning, odds are you never will, and that's fine. I don't see why Oda has to get hate for doing what he's been doing for 17(?) years now.

Personally I prefer OP to the other manga I've been reading, because I think it's a really well written story, it's consistent, the characters are colorful and funny, the powers are interesting, and there are also many mysteries left unexplained for the future. Mainly, however, it's a manga about the adventures of a bunch of friends, and adventure hapens to be my favorite genre so I cannot help but admire a well written one.

Also @FTGM after all this time I still can't figure out what you've got against Oda that makes you hate that guy so much ( ._.) especially since there are a lot worse manga than One Piece out there.
