Me during bathtime It’s that time of the year again. Once every year I leave my house willingly to spend a day outside walking through the streets of Deventer. You might be wondering why that is, and let me tell you. It’s the yearly book fair. Deventer is a city in the Netherlands that holds … Continue reading Book Fair Haul 2024

Chapter 28 – Letters
Chapter Twenty-Eight Letters When Cobal woke up in the morning it was already light out and he realized he’d overslept quite a bit. Not that he had anywhere to go in particular, but his body must have been really exhausted after the previous day. After getting some quick breakfast in his room he went to … Continue reading Chapter 28 – Letters
One Piece Volume 78
It’s the middle of summer vacation, my computer has fully given up the ghost so I’m writing this on my old computer which thankfully still runs relatively well and I’m generally not in the greatest of mood to write right now, but the show must go on, so let’s do a bit of a shorter … Continue reading One Piece Volume 78
Chapter 27 – Aftermath
“Shit.” Cobal kicked over the bench where his brother sat earlier. “What do we do now?”“There are a few things, but let’s start by making sure Grac is alright. I’m confident that with that flashy exit they’re not coming back anytime soon so that shouldn’t be one of our worries.” Eliana seemed to have recovered … Continue reading Chapter 27 – Aftermath
One Piece Volume 77
Volume 77 is one of those volumes where a lot happens, but let’s not ignore the little bits. As some of you might know, Oda starts off every volume with a short little bit of text, usually it’s a bunch of nonsense about whatever happens to be on his mind at the time. This volume … Continue reading One Piece Volume 77
Stay away from negative reviews
I know, I know, it’s probably not the most logical thing to say as someone who regularly reviews manga and anime, but I think it’s still good advice. Let me explain myself. After a friend of mine recommended that I watch the recent Kaiju No. 8, I went and binged the entire show in a … Continue reading Stay away from negative reviews
Chapter 26 – Family
“How are you, what are you, why are you here?” Cobal couldn’t even find the right question.“I should ask you the same thing, why are you in a foreign country sneaking into a destroyed building.” Selvia gasped. “Not that I’m not happy to see you, but it’s very dangerous here.”“Is this someone you know?” Eliana … Continue reading Chapter 26 – Family
One Piece Volume 76
We’re deep into the action of Dressrosa now. There’s much to talk about, so let’s not waste any time. We’ll start with Kin’emon and Kanjuro. Kin’emon’s primary reason for wanting to come to Dressrosa is to find Kanjuro, his samurai companion that he got separated from after something happened. This has been his sole reason … Continue reading One Piece Volume 76
Roses, thorns and the French revolution
When I first started watching anime - or at least started watching it while understanding that they were cartoons made in Japan - it was 2009. I was 17 years old. Because that time is when I got into anime properly, I’ve mainly watched shows that came out in the 2010s and the 2020s. I’ve … Continue reading Roses, thorns and the French revolution
Chapter 25 – Assault on Solin Manor
As they had planned, Cobal and Mana met up with Eliana and Grac on the outskirts of town. They’d excited through the western gate so as to not tip off anyone to where they were going. It was unlikely that the town guards were in cahoots with the cultists but Eliana assured them that it … Continue reading Chapter 25 – Assault on Solin Manor
