I just started One piece a little while back. I am currently on the end stretch of the Skypia Arc. Enjoying it so far, I was wondering what your favorite arcs are just for future reference.

Bit of an overreaction, he hadn't actually said anything yet.
It's arguable that OP will probably assume Ace's importance due to reactions opposed to the name drop. Just to set things straight, I think it's sad OP will think Ace is of any importance when he should be worrying about Buggy instead.

OT: Enies Lobby.

I hear ya and that's a bit what I meant, the strong reaction implies there's something to Ace. The reader is at a point where he's met Ace so it is a fairly innocent question to the reader even if we know it's preloaded since he never acted on it

Someone did that to me which got me to look him up which lead to me figuring out why he had made a remark
Just mentioning Ace? Ok, all I'm saying is your reaction exacerbated the issue. Think of it from the reader's point, you just get to Ace, someone asks you if you like Ace, before you can reply a listener on the side calls the asker a prick. This is definitely going to make you the reader curious about why someone would be considered a prick for asking about Ace.

he just got to Ace at the end of Skypia??? The OP asked for arcs, lets not be coy and act like Passerby was curious if the op liked Ace....I do get the reader perspective....but I jumped the gun though

This turned into quite the interesting thread, I didn't expect it to be so eventful. Thank you for the inputs one provided, expect the "fire fist ace" one. It did provide me entertainment, which is something I guess. =D

Yeah "just" it went Alabasta(meeting Ace) -> Jaya -> Skypeia. and Jaya was really just a lead in to Skypeia really. I mean I guess we can argue semantics on the word "just" but it was the first and only interaction with Ace at his time in the story. I know Passerby's was preloaded that's why I figured it was best to try and let him know it was an iffy move without implying too much.
