I didn't mind it that much (though I wasn't really paying much attention to One Piece at the time at the arc was ongoing), but I've seen a lot of complaints that the arc didn't live up to the hype that Oda had been building for multiple years - many of the attractions were kinda glossed over, the military and royalty were kinda useless, and even though the final fights were clearly meant to show off just how much the Straw Hats had improved over the timeskip (which is fine in concept), a few of the Straw Hats haven't had any tough battles since coughZorocough, which kinda makes the arc feel like it was setting up said Straw Hats as invincible.
