In chapter 230, we've learned that both Sanji and Nami are afraid of spiders and insects. These are very common phobias, and this moment was supposed to be comedic, so I didn't think much of it.

However, recently I've noticed a pattern among Sanji's opponents. First, in Dressrosa, he fought against Doflamingo, who has the Ito Ito no mi, the ability to control and manipulate strings. At one point, he used those strings to create a spider web to trap Luffy. Although his name and design are based on a bird, his personality and powers are definitely inspired by spiders. The fight was interrupted, but Sanji was clearly losing, and it would have ended pretty badly for him.

Skipping to Wano, Sanji was captured by Black Maria, the user of the Kumo Kumo no Mi, Model: Rosamygale Grauvogeli, an ancient spider. He fell right into her trap, and was powerless against her, because of his chivalrous moral conduct. So, he had to ask Robin for help, since he would never be able to defeat Black Maria.

Lastly, in chapter 1095, our Strawhats are facing their biggest threat yet: one of the Gods of this world (or demon?). Jaygarcia Saturn has transformed into a creature with bull horns and spider legs, most likely inspired by the Ushi-oni, a yokai from Japanese folclore. He holds Bonney hostage, and Sanji immediately runs in his direction to save her. But he is promptly blasted backwards, and hits the ground. It seems like Oda used Sanji as a stepping stone to show Saturn's immense power.

Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but I feel like the message is "Sanji is never going to win against aracnides", like that's an immovable weakness that's part of him, like not being able to hit women. Which is fine I guess, just a little weird.
