I wasn't reading when marineford was going on, but. That whole portion of the manga was extremely dense Amazon Lilly started in Chapter 514 Impel Down started in Chapter 525 Marineford started in Chapter 550 Post-War was Chapters 581-597 Everything from Impel Down to the end of Marineford was chapter 525-580. The anime was 60 episodes (plus an additional four movie-focused episodes inserted in the beginning of the Impel Down arc). And from what I've been told, during the 31 Marineford chapters, One Piece basically surpassed Harry Potter levels of crazy. The events of individual chapters were discussed on daily news programs and talk shows, and in the papers. Hi, I was reading One Piece when the Marineford arc came out.
And yes it was exciting. The hype of it honestly started when luffy went to impel down imo. As you read week by week we got to see so many familiar characters. Luffy and buggy work as team(slightly), and Mr. 3 and Mr 2 bon kurei join them.
(And crocodile later on) Seeing ace and garp interacting for the first time, Oda teased us so hard when Ace 'We both have the blood of an infamous criminal running through our veins' (chapter 525) we all thought that was confirmation of Dragon being Ace's father even the wikia kept that up there until Sengoku revealed the truth. Luffy's defeat to magellan, which lead to him meeting ivankov and finding out he was a revolutionary member, it was great to find someone connected to Dragons personally.
We finally got to see Jimbei for the first time ever! We have been waiting for that for a long time. Luffy meeting Blackbeard again and having the realization that the man who told him about 'A man's dream never ends' in Jaya, was the guy who started this all up. And having a short fight after that. And there great escape as Magellan turned into a poison monster with Mr.
2 Bon kurei sacrifice. With all the stuff that happened in impel down it was gonna get more amazing with combining all the characters from Impel Down coming to Marineford with all the Marines and Whitebeard and such. Also the whitebeard war was something that was teased at the fans for a longtime at that time (after Alabastra and after Post Water 7). We had all the characters joining in and seeing all their interactions. We finally got to see what whitebeard, akainu, sengokus, and etc powers.
The fandom at the time had theories on what akainus power were gonna be, many assumed he was going to have a logia fruit that deals with something red. Many thought Magma (and they were right) and some of us thought Rose due to the tattoo on his chest. When luffy ran past Sengoku and was trying to open his handcuffs, that was intense too watch, to see how Sengoku would react. I remember being so excited for a week (or two) that Luffy saved Ace, only to find that my happiness went a 180 when Akainu burns Aces insides. I never had a chapter that shitted on me that hard, the only other chapter that I could compare to was the Going Merry funeral, seeing the ship arrive and saving them from their doom in Enies Lobby (I was so excited and hopping they could fix it) to only finding out a week or 2 later to seeing its funeral and giving its farewell to the crew. After Aces death, we had chapters ending with Blackbeard reappearing (later on giving us the badass death of Whitebeard).
And then we had Shanks reappear (with the first time him being in the same area of Luffy since chapter one) and ceasing the war. I don’t really remember any breaks that made me freak out other than the 4 week long break before the timeskip. I didn’t miss the crew that much in marineford because impel down and marineford kept us busy. I was relieved though to find out what happened to them during the start of impel down. I’m not sure if Wano might be the same because marineford story was hinted with Ace’s search and Shanks message to Whitebeard.
We also had many hints on many returning characters. We were theorizing who was going to join the war, I was hopping Dragon was going to join the clusterfuck in that war because most of us thought he was Ace’s dad before Sengoku revealed the truth. But I’m still excited for the Wano, I’ve been hoping for them to go there with Fishman Island (which they have gone) and Elbaf. If you have anymore questions feel free to ask . I'm sorry but I didn't really put much thought back then on predicting Whitebeards ability but honestly when they first showed it out, I was fucking impressed with his abilities and the magnitude he could release.
I dont know if anyone in the fanbase predicted his powers right (their were probably people who did predict it right). But many of us fans later on notice that his laugh (Gu ra ra ra) was foreshadowing his fruit name, Gura, which is a Japanese onomatopoeia for shaking.
This was hinted to us almost 3 years in advance. Yes, we had a lot of expectations from Whitebeard because Buggy refused to attack Ace because he knew Whitebeard would get him and Buggy also stated that whitebeard is the only few people that could rival Gol D. He also treated Shanks as a small little kid, which honestly made him more of a badass.
And trust me, he exceeded all of our expectations. I was surprised to see Whitebeard died standing up with all his battle wounds on his front and a nearly clean back (excluding the Squard attack). To show he never ran from a battle. I hope this answer makes the whitebeard fan in you happy:)! Hell not, Marineford is really short for a One Piece arc but is so dense with content but at the same time consice, bad pacing is the last thing associated with that arc. I remember how awesome it was every week, specially when we got like 10 consecutive chapters of double spread pages to me thats totally unheard to this day on any other series, it just established itself like such a big event that it was unreal. I think the most amazing part about reading it that time is how one would be hype for the next chapter and it every week it would still deliver.
That arc was a pleasure to read week to week.

Way more evil and dangerous than WB will ever be. All the islands that WB had in his control, which were very peaceful, were taken over by other pirates. This means more work for the marines since they have to expend more resources and time to provide protection for those islands.
The death of Ace: They eliminated Roger's bloodline and that was great and all. But honestly all he ever did in the series so far was search for BB. With his 'I won't run away' motto, he would've gotten in a much bigger mess at some point even if the marines or BB didn't do anything. Ace's DF was claimed by a revolutionary, yet again another fail for the World Government. WB's 'One Piece exists!' Speech incited the next generation of pirates, which was totally the opposite of what Sengoku wanted to do. Surveillance Den Den Mushi - you da real MVP.
If the war never happened, Luffy would've never gone to Impel Down and Marineford, and made such an impact on the world. He's made allies of the WB pirate alliance, several Shichibukais, some Impel down escapees and the Revolutionary army. Even though Luffy lost few years of his life during the whole process, with the addition of the allies, he gained immunity to poison and kick-started his Conqueror's Haki growth. Most importantly, this was the best chance the Marines had in taking down the future king of the pirates. Never again will they be able to fight the already-fatigued-from-Impel-Down-No Haki-and-reckless version of him.

Law mentioned that the Marineford War was only a prelude to the future battles that is yet to come. He's right: Regardless of what Pacifista or human experiments or ancient weapon that the WG does to expand their army, it won't be enough to stop the humongous alliance (it will be way bigger than WB's fleet) that Luffy will bring in the final war.
Makes me think the whole thing could've been avoided if the WG had an admiral kill Blackbeard+crew when Blackbeard handed Ace over to the Marines, and continued with the marineford war. Or after that they could have killed Ace themselves in secret and spread fake news that one of the other Yonkous were responsible for his death. WB and other Yonkou would've fought and almost destroyed each other, while all of the Marines+Shichibukai surround the weakened pirates and defeat two of the Yonkous. But this could only happen if someone like Akainu was the fleet admiral at that time. Or even if they did send Ace to Impel Down, Luffy wouldn't have been able to escape the current between the three WG islands, since there wouldn't have been anyone hypnotized into opening the gates for every boat that comes through. The War would have gone quite differently if it was just Whitebeard's alliance there, and they could have taken every escaped prisoner back.
If there would even have been any escaped prisoners at all in the first place, considering that BB wouldn't have helped Luffy escape. Yeah, but if there plan to turn the Yonkou against each other failed, (like if they thought about it for 2 seconds, or sat down for terms of war, and figured out it was the WG) then they would have 2 severely pissed off Yonkou's, and Whitebeard would show no mercy if Ace was already dead.
Like if Ace was dead then Whitebeard found out it was all the WG, and they tried to blame it on someone else he would just like take down all of Marineford by himself. Only reason he didn't in the first place was because then he would kill Ace too. Makes me think the whole thing could've been avoided if the WG had an admiral kill Blackbeard+crew when Blackbeard handed Ace over to the Marines, and continued with the marineford war. Why kill Blackbeard when the government feels they need a seventh warlord and Blackbeard seemed both willing to be a warlord and powerful enough? You're basically saying 'If the government knew what Blackbeard was planning, they wouldn't have let him do it.'
No shit they wouldn't have, but they didn't. They thought Blackbeard legitimately wanted to be a warlord, not that he was just manipulating them.
