I have always been at the camp of "Chris Savino does nothing to improve his show and his departure does not damage the show for it already suffered issues with him around" since I starting to take interest in the show back in October. Being almost at my 40s I had always notice something off despite getting emotionally invested in any series.

If you notice in 3 of my nutshell series, I had always made a fun of Savino due to how he manage the series and said at many points on how the show should improve and shooting down those Savino defenders everytime they say: "Chris should come back! The show is not the same without him! How dare they fire him! The sexual assaults was a lie! (despite the very fact Chris himself pretty much confirmed he did that); Season 4 is damaged because Chris is not around!" Being a fan who once experienced a toxic fanbase involving Digimon back in 1999, I chose to be a open-minded fan who must stay away from the toxicity of fandoms and whatever I see these toxic fan defending Chris or taking the show way too seriously to think it's fine the way it is just makes me groan.

As for One Piece, as much as I like the series, it suffers old tropes that we see many times such as chasing your dreams, searching for a lost treasure, ancient civilization and such with characters being stereotypical such as Sanji being a love cook or Nami being a hot-tempered girl, it carries what the Loud House has: charm.

While One Piece may suffered issues and these cheesiness like you'll find in Loud House, Oda manage to keep the series engaging and fresh and interesting. He manage to develop the characters, made the story mostly unpredictable, has balance and diversity in stories, characters and genres; something the Loud House has failed to offer by re-using same old formulas.

Yes, One Piece at times was repetitive but not as bad the Loud House. One Piece intends to go into dark and mature themes like slavery, blood, drugs, smoking, and many others without going too far, Oda manage at the same time to keep it cheesy and comedic. Hence why I looked towards One Piece as a fine example on how to improve Loud House.

I want the writers to try something different, add new stories, let it have balance, let it be multi-genre, give the characters real development and show real care with the series like how Oda cares about his series.

Yes, Oda was not always good at being unpredictable like how the Riku family were being framed but at the same arc we did not see Gear 4 coming. There is so much energy in this series that the Loud House needs to have it too.
