I am a big fan of Black Clover and just like the rest, I am dying to see how the story unfolds. In saying that, I'd never wish anyone to work themselves to death over it. This is a message to Tabata: look after yourself my friend. We as the fans will live but you need to take it easy, if you don't finish its not the end of the world ffs. Nobody else can live your life but you. Don't worry if they are true fans they will still be here no matter what. I'm a 49 year old lady in Australia so I can say this with certainty trust me. This long break will see your story with even more fans by the time it's finished because the next generation of young ones coming through will have time to watch the story up to now. So take care buddy.

Do we ever find out why Bart is getting tortured by Shanks? I feel like this is a really important piece of the puzzle maybe Bart found out something he wasn't supposed to or saw/heard something suss that Shanks was up to.

Whatever it is, remember the Roger pirates all laughed and left it there because somehow Roger knew he was 20 years too early. That's got to mean something. Also Shanks and Buggy were on the crew but missed the last leg of the journey but they still circled back to pick them back up because you can see them crying when Roger says goodbye so surely they were told about what the one piece was. Other people who were also there were Rayleigh, Usopp's father, and the rest of the crew still alive would all know what the treasure is too.
