One Piece chapter 1138 review and mural analysis
I’m going to put it out there. This is the best One Piece chapter since the Reverie kicked off in mid-2018. The Emperors’ bounties and Roger laughing in Wano came close, but this is the first thing to truly make me feel like I did back at that last big reveal. While I don’t think…

One Piece chapter 1134 review
Elbaf is getting in gear and starting to hint toward its real themes and storylines. The prelude, reunion and environmental art dumps seem to be wrapping up, but even with the big cliffhanger this one ends on there’s likely to be a crossfade between the opening worldbuilding and the serious story over the coming chapters.…

One Piece chapter 1129 review
The mini mystery of the last couple of chapters will be a footnote in One Piece’s run – likely to be resolved in a matter of minutes by all future readers as the answer isn’t even going to be broken up between volumes – but it’s a great show of Oda’s willingness to keep arcs…

The One Piece Rewrite Project volume 4
With another break comes another rewritten volume! Vocabulary, as always, is key here, maintaining the contrast between the extremely casual, even rude, Straw Hats and kids vs the eloquent snootiness and formality of the mansion staff. Read volume 4 here! I’ve made my first departure from established names here with the Black Cat Pirates’ Siam…

One Piece chapter 1106 review
Where last week’s chapter was all the slow setup, this one is 100% slow payoff. It’s the turnaround for all of Egghead’s tension, and Oda lets it breathe for an uncharacteristically long time, giving us pages and pages of relishing the Buster Call fleet’s destruction and the ultimate demonstration of Kuma’s love for Bonney. And…

One Piece chapter 1105 review
After two incredible satisfying steps forward, One Piece 2024 has its first transitional chapter, and at just 13 pages it definitely feels short and soft. Not quite recappy, but just playing through a lot of things that need to be played out based on the last couple of chapters’ events. We start with an obligate…

One Piece chapter 1097 review
Back on three chapters in a row! I was starting to lose hope, so even this chapter’s short length can’t take the shine off this win. Ginny has to win some kind of award for being the chapter that took the shortest amount of time between being introduced and appearing on a chapter cover. Excepting…

One Piece chapter 1095 review
So are we all just getting comfortable in the assumption it’s going to be two weeks on, one week off from now on? It’s rough, but that’s life. I was around for all the venting and complaining when it first went to three on, one off during Dressrosa, and I think if we can survive…

One Piece chapter 931 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. A pretty high quality chapter to return to a normal schedule from and a pretty hype ending for volume 92. Sanji talking a big game about swallowing his pride for a greater cause hints at the kind of character growth he’s needed for a…
