What made you drop the manga?

For me, it was how incredibly dull the major lore reveals on Egghead were handled. Oda had such a huge opportunity, and instead we get an old guy dumping exposition over a broadcast? Not our main characters uncovering the secrets through their own adventures, piece by piece, but just a straight-up lore dump? It felt lazy and completely undercut the excitement. All my expectations just crumbled in that moment.
