@Sephi:
A massive battle between Kaido, many members of the worst gen (Drake, Kid, Apoo, Hawkins, Law, Zoro and Luffy..maybe even Killer), the Straw hat Grand fleet, the samurai of Wano and all the associated crews in a massive war which might also bring Big Mom into the picture, meaning two yonko in one place…yeah totally nothing like Marineford. Not like Oda has been hyping up Wano for years and also hyping up the big battle that is said will "make marineford seem small" and hyping up the showdown with Kaido or anything.
As for Dressrossa and Enis Lobby... I would point out that it was the turning point for thr Strawhats. This made Luffy a Supernova and his crews bounties all went up as well. Dressrosa did similiar things, as they took down Doffy, angered a yonko, made the strawhat grand fleet and all the crews bounties went up! I see clear similarities!
edit: my sarcasm may have been rude and I apologize for that aspect. Standing by my point still tho.

I can see Alabsta and Dressrosa having A LOT in common as well so that is fair enough

points at my post. Sure I dont. Yall Arlongpark folks really dont know me yet lol
But you didn't answer that at all. You made weak tenuous connections to begin with, and worse though you uh…. didn't explain what the point of the echo nonsense is. Which is exactly the joke of it.
You cannot answer. You can allege that it exists, but you can't explain why Oda is "doing it". What the POINT is.
I'm still just trying to wrap my heads around how an actual story type arc with a kingdom and culture is an "echo" of Marineford, an arc 100% devoted to a battle at a military facility.
