We’ve made it to Volume 12, the first volume that says “Baroque Works” on the spine. Some quick math on my end reveals that this means we are a quarter into the year already. Can you believe that? As I’m writing this I’m not feeling great. I’m on the fence about going to work tomorrow, … Continue reading One Piece Volume 12 + Thoughts on the East Blue Saga

Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 12
Hey folks, glad to have you here. I’m feeling very under the weather right now. I think it’s a flu or something, but regardless of what it is, the room is spinning ever so slightly and my entire body hurts. If today’s post is a little bit shorter or less coherent I apologize. I do … Continue reading Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 12
Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 10
We’re closing in on the finish line with this season. This is the tenth episode already out of a total scheduled thirteen episodes. It makes me wonder if a near future sequel is in the works because I’d be very surprised if much gets resolved in the next four episodes. That would actually be pretty … Continue reading Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 10
Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 7
Now that we’re at the halfway point of the season, let’s do a quick recap to see what has happened so far. We’ve seen a flashback of when Fukuzawa and Ranpo met each other. In this flashback we saw several members of Five, including the mustachioed gentleman that was with Fukuzawa initially but seems to … Continue reading Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 7
One Piece Volume 5
Five volumes read, another 100 or so to go. I recognize now that this journey might take a while. Which is fine but I do worry I’ll reach a point where I don’t want to stop reading. I might have to read ahead and get back to the volumes up for discussion each week. I … Continue reading One Piece Volume 5
Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 5
It’s that time of the week again. I’m excited to see more of Ranpo getting himself into bad situations with no proper plan to get out of them. Or perhaps he’s grown since the last time and he now knows what he’s doing. I’m doubtful, but we’re here to find out. Let’s get to it … Continue reading Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 5
Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 4
Before we dive into the present time (that’s present continuous kids, since it’s still going on. If it were a habit or a fact it would be the present simple. How many times am I going to have to explain this?)I’m sorry, my inner teacher leaked out, it’s been a very busy start to the … Continue reading Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 4
One Piece Volume 3
We’ve made our way to Volume 3. We’re still in the early stages of One Piece and with the Captain Kuro arc coming up, which I think is one of the worst arcs in the series, we have one or two volumes to get through before things pick up and we never look back. Buggy … Continue reading One Piece Volume 3
Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 3
The upside of writing these recaps every week is that if I have to remind myself how the previous episode ended I can just go back to the last paragraph I wrote last week. I forgot that the episode ended with Ranpo in trouble. I’m sure he’s not actually in trouble, but he wasn’t in … Continue reading Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 3
Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 1
It’s time for another season of Bungo Stray Dogs. I’ve read some of the novels and the first volume of the manga for this one, and I’m still hoping to dive into the entire story one day but for now let’s just have a look at what this new season of anime brings us. I’m … Continue reading Bungo Stray Dogs IV – Episode 1
