Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

Which Strawhat Deserves MVP in Every Post Time Skip Arc?

Saving the day doesn't always mean winning the biggest fight. The Animaze's Straw Hat MVP rundown makes room for blood donations, antidotes and a skeleton's stealth mission alongside Luffy's headline battles.

"Which Strawhat Deserves MVP in Every Post Time Skip Arc?" drew about 50,000 views, the most of the channel's five new uploads. The narrator gives Jinbe Fish-Man Island for saving Luffy through a blood transfusion, credits Usopp's interventions against Sugar in Dressrosa, and awards Chopper both Punk Hazard and Zou for helping people in danger. Brook gets Whole Cake Island for copying Poneglyphs and surviving his encounter with Big Mom. For the crew's musician, that's quite a side gig.

Luffy receives Wano and Egghead, but the comments supply alternative ballots. Some viewers make a case for Zoro in Wano or Sanji in Egghead; others want Elbaf to give Usopp a significant character moment. The video's own Elbaf pick is explicitly a hope for Sanji, not a settled verdict.

Elsewhere, the week's titles lean into speculation: "What if Luffy Ate a Rumble Ball ?", "Luffy's Nika Awakening Will Become His Biggest Enemy!" and "Why Luffy Could Die After Becoming Pirate King?" The last of those is currently attracting the most daily views, followed by "Oda Has Bigger Plans for Vivi". Their questions and predictions are the channel's theories, not announced story developments.

Across the catalog, daily views are running roughly half above their usual level, while subscribers stayed unchanged over the week. The Animaze also drew the largest weekly audience among its nearby anime, comics and tabletop peers. That broader attention hasn't changed the week's central pleasure: finding room on the Straw Hats' honors board for the doctor and musician as well as the captain.
