The thing I appreciate about the arc is the massive scope of it. We have just about every major group we know in the series represented in some form: Marines, Shichibukai, Revolutionaries, 3/4 Yonko, Cipher Pol, and even Kuzan (mentioned only). I'm really enjoying the endless possibilities of it.

In terms of actual progress, there's not much weekly, but there never is with One Piece. But I don't get the feeling that "every other chapter is a waste". Only a few have left me feeling that, most obviously the one that's all about Hajrudin. That and the stretching out of Bellamy's story is a bit much for me.
