The piglets are too cute for the story, they don't deserve it. The flying pigs don't actually contribute to the story after the incident with the reporter. The first chapters are the only ones that make sense to me, the rest just feels like a bunch of unrelated stuff mixed together. Also, but that's my preference, I can't stand Hasegawa, like at all. I don't think he's a likeable character, he's always shouting and getting angry and treating Oda like only he is allowed to have any kind of feelings.
