<p>An announcement came at the annual One Piece Super Stage Event last December that promised to change all that. The staff and Sir Eiichiro Oda assured fans that Sanji will return in 2016 with an origin story. Sanji's voice actor Hiroaki Hirata will also return. But still nothing for Sanji he is still missing.</p>

<p>Why this will be? Is it possible that he is a weak one amoung straw hats?</p>

If the mangaka has announced that there will be an origin story, and it still hasn't come out, most likely, the mangaka is paving the plot to create an instance for the story to be told. There's no rush..

I clearly disagree that Sanjie is a weak one among straw hats.

i agree with u @bot, he is clearly the number 3 in the crew if u talk about strength and if we talk about tactics, i would even say he is number one!
now, we know his family are all assassins, he will additionally have some more move which make him even stronger if he shows them.!
