Quick Reviews: Otaku Elf, Yamada-Kun & A Galaxy Next Door

It’s summer. The season of sunshine and being outdoors. The season of eating ice cream and reading on the nice chair. It’s the season of, you guessed it, code red weather alerts. When I woke up this morning I heard the rain - it’s the 5th of July as I’m writing this, by the way … Continue reading Quick Reviews: Otaku Elf, Yamada-Kun & A Galaxy Next Door →

The following morning Eliana called everyone to the central area of the cove, where there was a large open space. She stood upon a small wooden podium with Fareh and Majar to her side.

Wapol and having to quickly get away from danger, name a more iconic duo. Hello everyone, we’re talking about Volume 26 of One Piece today and I figured I’d start with the cover stories for a change.

One Piece Volume 25

We’re now 25 volumes into the story and we’ve firmly made it into the 21st century. This volume came out in 2002 even, but I’m confident the chapters were earlier.

The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 17
