Hmm... think I can't agree with you on this one. I mean, how would you feel if post TS, you get the following:
 * Timeskip: Ever since the Timeskip you'll think the characters would change but it appears that some characters have not changed. Like Chopper's gullibleness or Nami's short-tenderness or Usopp's crowardness. Oda appears to keep Nami, Chopper, and Brook a weak trio and almost never get enough spotlight.

- Usopp shoots a pop green at a crowd of fishmen charging at him, out comes a plant performing tornado slashes, then a fishman foe (suffered cuts from the attack) asked "For how long will this technique keep attacking them?", to which Usopp replied in a badass pose "It will follow you to the depths of hell!". You know, the same scenario, transposed Zoro with Usopp. >>> A very badass Usopp

- Chopper morphed into Jump Point, does a "Sky Walk" (Sanji don't get this technique) and blocks Doflamingo in mid air during the seige at Zoe, and perhaps got a kick or two at Doflamingo >>> A much stronger Chopper, about to briefly intercept the Shichibukai

- Transpose Zoro with Brook during the brief spar with Issho at the scene nearby Colosseum (after Doflamingo shot Law, with Luffy looking on from inside of the building) >>> A super strong Brook who does not seem to lose out to the Admiral

- Zoro met Kinemon's upper torso (without legs and head) had a quick spar and then run away (same situation as Brook's encounter, just change with Zoro) >>> A timid Zoro

- Luffy now talks and acts smartly (think Benn), carefully calculating and plotting his advances and moves >>> A no longer idiotic kinda Luffy

So the characters have changed considerably and significantly after the TS, feels awkward no? ^^
