With naruto it was a case of rushing it all tho he had plenty of time to set up a lot of things

The issues with Naruto have more to deal with the explanations themselves and plot direction than anything else.

This. They were just stupid explanations. You can explain something without it being "concrete". That's the basis of mythology. Instead we got space aliens that introduced chakra to the world or some nonsense like that

The thing about something like Twin Peaks, or to use an anime example, Evangelion, is that the answers to the mystery never really mattered. They're basically mood setters, a way of making the audience feel off balance and anxious as we go through this weird esoteric work.
One Piece is not set up like this. One Piece basically has to answer most of its set up mysteries or else the work doesn't really pay off anything.
Not letting us know what the One Piece is is out of the question. Not answering the Void Century question pretty much invalidates Robin's whole arc. Sure, Oda could leave some stuff ambiguous, but most of what's been set up is too intrinsically linked to the story.

The entire final fight was completely unneeded. Kaguya and all that shit was completely pointless in the grand scheme of things.
While I wouldn't use the word authenticity I agree with Veelk that I don't need explanation for everything. Somethings are best left to speculate or don't need more.
People bring up Naruto and people say is the writing I agree but did we really needed to know where chakra and the eye powers came from. Did we needed Alien (extradimensinol but whatever) ninjas in the story.
Like I would be happy to find out about the void century but I don't give a shit about devil fruits if it makes sense

Yeaaaa screw that shit lol 20 years? I better know what one piece is, void century,devil fruits etc
He'd pull it off just fine.
The biggest sin Naruto performs is wasting that amazing world set forth in the first few chapters. These are child soldiers with low level super powers for the most part expected to serve and die a for their mission, usually given out by feuding nobles and rich people around the world and doled out by the head ninja. Think back on how damaged Kakashi is and the words he uses to describe this stuff.
They even introduce a character in Pein who is the one fighting back against this system but by then all the Ninjas are just super heroes who fight the bad guys. The Sauce also gives lip service to this notion after his fight with his brother but gets sidetracked, only bringing it up again in the finale when Naruto has, you know, already SOLVED that problem.

Better than the fan theory
What theory?

Basically, it's the difference between being deliberately ambiguous and dropping plot points.

One piece destroys the red line merging the seas hence the all blue..bleh
Is it solved? Don't they still do that from u seen in Boruto they still have the exams with Naruto bithcing about revolutionary technology that makes jutsu easier and safer thanks to taking little chakra and there are still ninja kids and don't they still take missions
The Void Century and The World Government are 1000% connected, I'll eat my sneakers if they aren't.
They clearly are. The fact the WG was founded when the Void Century ended so clearly something happened that lead to their creation.

Considering that the study of the VC is punishable by death I'd say that's safe.
I haven't bothered with Boruto yet beyond the initial bit of the manga but Naruto (and Sauce for that matter) are strong enough that they are uncheckable by the other ninja villages, which were all united by the war at the end of Naruto anyways. With the ninjas all united they have all the power over the feudal lords so it isn't going to be a bunch of cold wars anymore.
They've basically turned from mercenary assassins and spies to mercenary Justice League is the real comparison.

Wait, unless I missed it, I haven't seen much in here about
Or does no one care, lol. It seems like you guys read the new chapters way earlier than me - I just wait until Viz releases the new Shonen Jump on Mondays - so I guess I'm behind.
PEDDROOOOOOOO

We had talk about Pedro, mainly if Oda has it in him to keep someone dead.

It's post time skip One Piece. People die when they're killed. I don't see Monet and Virgo still around
I am devastated by Pedro's "death". He was the chosen one who recommended stopping Pudding and since she ended up meeting Sanji she is having a mental collapse.
And Oda has made smoking look cool again. Shame on him!
Next cover series: Monet & Virgo's Hilarious Adventure
Maybe that's why the divorce rate is so high.
They're opening a Hamburger/Shaved Ice Stand.
Pedro would have ruined good comedy and drama, worst nakama right next to Gastino and Monet.
Yea, on one hand, it's One Piece, so you never know...
But at the same time, he already pulled this suicide trick earlier in the series, sacrificed for their future, so I wouldn't be surprised if Oda actually went through with it rather than undercut the moment later on.
But again... it's One Piece.
I'll marry them.
But now he has kept the year of brook rolling. Cancels out.
Brook would have found a way, he's just that good.

If the execution is good, even the most ridiculous scenarios could work.
While I avoid crewmate theories, I do speculate on major plot points.
What if Devil Fruits were an invention by the mystery civilization in the Void Century, and the WG saw their immense power and added the swimming weakness while at the same time they flooded the world. That way they would be "nerfed".

The world seems pretty fine if it's supposed to be "flooded".
