Writer’s Block, being ill and starting antidepressants
It’s been a tumultuous few weeks for me. I’ve been adjusting at work much better than before, but this has come with some downsides here and there. For starters, I’ve had to start taking antidepressants. They’re actually used to help with my anxiety, but those two problems use the same type of medication. I’ve had … Continue reading Writer’s Block, being ill and starting antidepressants

They get … Continue reading One Piece Volume 45
One Piece Volume 44
Volume 44 covers a whopping 11 chapters. I’m pretty confident that’s above average and at this point in time Oda’s chapters were still longer than they sometimes tend to be now. Let’s ignore how unhealthy that work ethic was and appreciate what we’re about to read. The conclusion on what is probably Oda’s best arc … Continue reading One Piece Volume 44

Oda’s question corner that regularly gets featured is always interesting. I highly recommend you to read through them while you read these volumes, there’s much more interesting stuff going on there than you might think. For example, we learn the entire backstory of the gruff carpenter that gave some food to Usopp while the Aqua … Continue reading One Piece Volume 43
The Necromancer’s Daughter chapter 11 – Larania
Woodland creature IScurrying through the foliage was a small form. Not much bigger than a human hand when rolled up into a ball but large enough to make an impact when speeding through the underbrush. Fluffy cheeks and a bushy tail accompanying a lean body that darted from branch to branch. There was an energy … Continue reading The Necromancer’s Daughter chapter 11 – Larania
