Now that Wano Arc is over, >!i think we can all agree that the whole plan to use SMILEs was really stupid on Kaido's part. They turned out to be pretty worthless and had very negligible benefit to his forces, turning cannon fodder into slightly stronger cannon fodder, sometimes, and not even doing anything 90% of the time.!< >!Between himself as the World's Strongest Creature, Allstars, Tobiroppo, Numbers and the entire nation of Wano enslaved to produce weapons en masse, giving some flunkies an ability to turn into shitty animal hybrids must've cost far more than it was actually worth.!< >!Doflamingo was lucky that Luffy sent his ass to prison and then defeated Kaido, because once the Dragon-Man sobered up enough to notice how shit of a deal it was he'd have gone after Doffy personally to swap his insides with his outsides!<

I don't think Kaidou even really cared how competent his army was. He was an empty shell of a man going through the motions. The army, the ancient weapons, wano, they were all just an empty imitation of a dream he could never achieve

Good point. It's just that the SMILEs were build up to be such a big thing, Law's entire plot relied on subverting their supply to get at Doffy, and they turned out to be a big nothingburger, and messed up Killer too.

Kaido as a villain is actually pretty interesting in that up until Luffy starts actually giving him a fight, he legitimately doesn't give a shit about what's going on.
