Isn’t it crazy that this manga is giving Wapol a better character arc than some main characters get in other stories? Maybe that’s an exaggeration but the fact that a disgraced and defeated king turns into a toy vendor is a wild direction to take. I don’t believe this stuff was ever added to the … Continue reading One Piece Volume 27

One Piece Volume 26
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. Most of the time I keep them until the end of a post, or I forget about them. … Continue reading One Piece Volume 26
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. This volume is a great combination of funny chapters, action panels and an unholy amount of new lore. So without wasting time, let’s get right … Continue reading One Piece Volume 25
The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 17
I promised I’d go through these volumes quickly and this volume is a lot more action packed than the previous one. Generally action scenes in manga don’t require a whole lot of discussion but Magus Bride is much more interesting in the way that it portrays its fights. It’s never about the fights, it’s about … Continue reading The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 17
Netflix’s One Piece
Man oh man, did I think I was going to just pretend this wasn’t happening. But unfortunately we live in a world where a One Piece live action is happening and there’s nothing we can do about it. Live action adaptations of anime have a pretty bad track record, I personally can’t think of a … Continue reading Netflix’s One Piece
One Piece – Volume 24
‘When I visited my family recently, my parents expressed an opinion about One Piece for the first time. “That story about the deer was really good.” DEER?’- Oda in 2002 The latest few chapters in One Piece have been absolutely crazy. I feel like every Sunday I’m having to brace myself for what is coming … Continue reading One Piece – Volume 24
Solo Leveling Review (Spoilers)
I first started reading Solo Leveling quite a few years ago. It came highly recommended so I gave it a shot. I read up until the job quest and got bored of the story around that point so I stopped reading it. After repeated recommendations recently I decided to give it another shot. This time … Continue reading Solo Leveling Review (Spoilers)
Baroque Works Recap
Baroque is a French word and it refers to a style of architecture, music, painting, sculptures and other artforms that were around in early 17th century Europe. Now I looked through the Wikipedia article for this for a little bit and I have to admit I’m not smart enough to see a connection between the … Continue reading Baroque Works Recap
One Piece – Volume 23
The final volume of the first box set and the conclusion of the second major saga: Baroque Works. We’re speeding through this, but there’s so much more amazing content on the horizon that I don’t really mind. Besides, at this rate it’s still going to take until 2025 before we even get to the volumes … Continue reading One Piece – Volume 23
The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 16
Quick addition before I upload this, but I looked at my volume 15 review and we were still in lockdown back when I put that out. It’s been so much longer than I thought it was. Time is so weird these days. I know it’s been a little while since I’ve gone through one of … Continue reading The Ancient Magus Bride – Volume 16
