A Nami novel? She definitely has her post time skip outfit, so I assume it is some time after she was a student at Weatheria.
I would be intrigued by a novel about Vivi infiltrating Baroque Works, or literally anything between Nico Robin being between 10 and 30 sans the parts that were shown in the main Manga.
Koala joining the revolutionaries after the death of Fisher Tiger, and some missions with Sabo could be interesting, but I personally don't care too much about Koala.
this just makes me wonder what Oda would change if he were to redraw the first hundred chapters with his current skill as an artist as well as the current knowledge of where the story is right now.
More forshadowing? Better inclusion of the current version of Haki? actual backgrounds?
Now Kawamatsu, and back then the reoccuring Frog person in multiple background shots in Totland, and of course Big News Morgans make me think of as of yet unnamed tribes of Amphibian people and bird people akin to merfolk and minks.
I hope we are for now done with Luffy, and he just trains his haki in the background while adding prisoners to the revolution. Because I want to see Big Mom meeting Kaido, Law fighting Hawkins, and whatever literally everyone else is up to.

EX Characters Summit War vol 10
•Revealing the favorite foods and blood types of the Charlotte family!
•The unknown secret of Mother Carmel!!
,
I assume one panel twins of these siblings either share a card with the main sibling, or become ex-cards (Citron and Cinnemon on Smoothies card, Custard and Angel on Cracker card, prim on Praline's card, Broye on Brulee's card )
Looking at that list, there needs to be a second Big Mom pirate booster pack: These characters just did too many things to become ex-characters
-Charlotte Galette
-Charlotte Opera
-Charlotte Moscato
-Charlotte Amande
-Charlotte Bavarois
-Charlotte Mascarpone and Joscarpone
-Charlotte Decuplets
(-Charlotte Snack and Compote are in a weird position. Mentioned all the time, but never doing anything)
-Randolph
-general Orphans
-with the other ones they can go either way I guess. Jaconde, Brownie, Raisin, and Yuen were all properly introduced, but had so little screen time. So who knows.
And i guess another booster pack would be the underworld leaders at the wedding other than Stussy, and maybe a couple cards with a bunch of homies
Something else that seems to have been forgotten along the way is event cards they mentioned early on. So far they've only released four cards Luffy-taro, Zoro-juro, the Fake Straw Hat Crew (which was re-released with the Impel Down pack) and Law's Skill card (which was released with the Punk Hazard pack). So far their have been no new promo or event cards announced since then.
Also not to obsesse over the EX cards, but aside from what you and Robby have said about them (mainly the marketability of packs with just them and appealing to "what will sell" compared to appeasing completionists), hypothetically how will they actually finish them.
They could rerelease every arc with the respective straw hat designs and a summary of what they did during that arc, throw in ability cards, and fill the rest with EX cards.
Not sure how well that would sell, but that would be a halfway unique option
I would love to collect those cards, especially the Charlotte set. But as long as it is japaneseexclusive there is really no point in me having those.
I wonder how they'll deal with those though. I wonder if each set of twins/tripletts/quadrupletts/etc will share a card. With obvious exceptions Katakuri, Daifuku, Oven.
I can see them aking a break. after whole cake and germa what other packs would currently make sense?
Other than maybe Reverie and a second Big Mom pack.
I really like the fact Komurasakihas turquoise hair. She and many others already look too much like the Robin archetype. at least some distinguishable characteristics
too bad someone posted this a minute earlier
I think I read somewhere that Oda got a digital drawing tablet recently, and after a while he got accustomed to it. But that's just like super passing "knowledge"
