As I’m writing this it is pouring rain right outside my window. Summer has officially ended here in the Netherlands and I’m feeling two ways about it. Being able to hang out outside in a shirt is very nice, but the feeling of putting the duvet back in the cover and reading manga in the … Continue reading One Piece Volume 35

Bungo Stray Dogs Season 5 – Episode 8
Almost unsurprisingly after the hints we got last week, Teruko is definitely still an enemy. After Atsushi comes across an inconsistency in her story, he gets turned into a child by her powers. That’s right, we’re jumping straight into it. The opening plays early this week as well, I hope that’s a sign that there’s … Continue reading Bungo Stray Dogs Season 5 – Episode 8
Bungo Stray Dogs Season 5 – Episode 7
It’s Bungo Stray Dogs day. I had my first day of teaching at a new job yesterday and one of my students asked about One Piece (I showed off my bookshelves in some pictures like a proper nerd) and I answered her question of “do you watch One Piece” with “Yes, and I have been … Continue reading Bungo Stray Dogs Season 5 – Episode 7
One Piece – Volume 33
I’m not going to sit here and sugarcoat things. This is definitely my least favorite volume of One Piece up until this point, and probably will be my least favorite volume by the time I’m done with all of them. This volume is straight up bad. The entire volume is dedicated to the Davy Back … Continue reading One Piece – Volume 33
Bungo Stray Dogs Season 5 – Episode
Fukichi starts off strong by assuming Ranpo might be behind the intruder or the seeming intruder he’s dealing with.

Meanwhile … Continue reading Bungo Stray Dogs Season 5 – Episode

Bungo Stray Dogs Season 5 – Episode 4
The random guard reporting everything to the mainland and making Akutagawa and Atsushi look worse to the general public really is a kick in the balls to Atsushi after he really didn’t want the man to be killed. Of course, it makes sense for him to be against the terrorists even if they did spare … Continue reading Bungo Stray Dogs Season 5 – Episode 4
One Piece – Volume 30
I received the following letter:“Oda Sensei, you’re such a weird, irresponsible person. Just to be clear, I’m always writing silly things in my comments these days, but in my youth there was a boy who was always being praised by all the adults in the neighborhood. He was a genius when it came to schoolwork … Continue reading One Piece – Volume 30
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
