Vol 2: Chapter Nineteen – Captain Tidescreecher

“So you’re telling me that a prince was sailing on a merchant vessel without a personal guard to try and find a pirate captain to help out with some sort of magic problem?” The captain’s tied up hair was sticking out from under the almost comically large hat she was wearing and her piercing eyes … Continue reading Vol 2: Chapter Nineteen – Captain Tidescreecher →

One Piece – Volume 19

We’re getting awfully close to the end of the first box set, only a couple of volumes left. Good thing I have three more boxes after this. I doubt a fifth will be out by the time we reach that point, so I’ll have to think about what to do when we get to that … Continue reading One Piece – Volume 19 →

Busy Week

Man, it has been one hell of a week. I try to avoid doing regular update videos too often since they’re probably not very interesting to most of my readers. But since this blog is about me and my life, I think sometimes I can just take a step back and talk about this stuff. … Continue reading Busy Week →

Bump of Chicken

I’ve talked about Japanese musicians on this platform a decent amount already and I even did so recently when talking about strange band names and song names. You can check out my post Numbness like a ginger for that. In that post I talked about a couple of groups, one of which is a band … Continue reading Bump of Chicken →

Vol 2: Chapter Eighteen – Misfortune

Cobal slept through a lot of the remainder of the storm. The combination of exhaustion and pain meant his body really needed the rest. It turned out that the reason Mirgia never came back after he went out to get things for Cobal is because he threw up in the hallway. It was quite a … Continue reading Vol 2: Chapter Eighteen – Misfortune →

Manga Quick Reviews: The Breaker Vol. 5, Wave, listen to me Vol. 9 & Yuru Camp Vol. 13

I’ve been doing quick reviews for anime for a while now, and it’s one of my favorite kinds of posts to write. Now, writing about the manga you read in the past month/week/quarter isn’t exactly a new idea, but many of my ideas aren’t new. Better to steal a good idea from someone else than … Continue reading Manga Quick Reviews: The Breaker Vol. 5, Wave, listen to me Vol. 9 & Yuru Camp Vol. 13 →

Vol 2: Chapter Seventeen – The Origin of The Chandecobra

The next evening came and although the storm still wasn’t as aggressive as they feared, all signs pointed towards it picking up during the night. So the crew, with the help of our party, spent most of the day making sure everything on the ship was extra secure and everyone knew their tasks when the … Continue reading Vol 2: Chapter Seventeen – The Origin of The Chandecobra →

One Piece Volume 17

My staff and I often go to a very noisy Japanese restaurant where a lot of people take their children. There are TVs at each table. If you go there on Sunday nights at 7:30, you’ll see the children staring at the TV screens with their mouths wide open, looking silly.They’re watching One Piece.When I … Continue reading One Piece Volume 17 →

Your regularly scheduled schedule changes

Whenever May rolls around I’m always reminded of Justin Timberlake’s pronunciation of ‘me’ in the song ‘it’s gonna be me’. It’s so over the top that even Blink182 should probably take notes. But it’s also the time of the year where change is in the air. The rain and dark clouds disappear and it’s time … Continue reading Your regularly scheduled schedule changes →
