The Hesitant Hero Update #3.5
You might be coming into this post wondering why it’s called 3.5 and not 4. Well, the honest truth is that there’s not nearly as much to update you on as I would have liked.

Burning out like a supernova
Cause I feel like taking off, let me be your supernova. Now who was it that sang that song? It popped up in my head when I started writing this post. Oh right, it was by Mr Hudson and….

Wano Recapped
We’re very far into the story now. Oda has said multiple times throughout the years that he wants to start working towards the ending of One Piece and the series will end within a couple of years. Most of the times he’s made this claim, he made himself a liar by introducing big story arcs … Continue reading Wano Recapped

Not only that, but Pluton, the ancient weapon for which Franky once destroyed the blueprints, … Continue reading One Piece Volume 105

Looking back on my initial draft, there’s some stuff in there that I feel proud about. It gets a bit less good halfway through, but that’s why we write multiple versions. I … Continue reading Hesitant Hero Update #2
