One Piece chapter 1006 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. A full villains colour spread isn’t something we’ve had in a looooong time. You might even be able to say it’s unprecedented. The Warlords spread for chapter 532 wasn’t technically all villains, and the Baroque Works one all the way back in chapter 160…

One Piece chapter 1005 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. I’ve said more than enough about Sanji’s current direction already, and I can’t be bothered going over it all again. Bottom line is I just really don’t vibe with what Oda’s been doing with him. I’m sure for people who are on board with…

One Piece chapter 1004 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. If this turns out to be the final chapter of volume 99, it’s a pretty underwhelming note to end on after the extremely artistically impressive and exciting rooftop showdown. If it wouldn’t have made the book too short, I would have said the last…

One Piece chapter 1002-1003 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. These two chapters were reviewed together because the forum was offline on the week of chapter 1002’s release. I wouldn’t say I’m here for the fights (it’s absolutely a worldbuilding/long term narrative thing for me) but I’m really enjoying the clashes with Kaido. The…

One Piece chapter 1001 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Chapter 1000 was great, and the start of the Kaido and Big Mom fight is unquestionably a momentous event, but there was, in hindsight, a feeling that the chapter wasn’t completely for us, the up-to-date dedicated readers. Oda chose to restate important themes and…

One Piece chapter 1000 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Chapter 1000. Wow. I don’t think there’s likely to be another manga with the ambition to make it this far anytime soon, and I doubt there’ll be another that catches my attention the same way. It’s no exaggeration to say One Piece has to…

One Piece chapter 999 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Here we are. Final chapter of triple digits. Next chapter, I find out of the filenaming scheme for my offline archive holds up to the new digit, or if I’ll have to go back and add an extra 0 in front of every previous…

One Piece chapter 998 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Pretty light chapter this week, albeit one with incredible art. It was easy to expect Marco to be a deus ex machina for the ice oni plot, bring a fire doctor dealing with an ice virus, but thankfully he’s just being used to add…

One Piece chapter 997 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Ugh, Sanji, Sanji, Sanji. I want to hope we’re not about to get another Kalifa situation, but this first scene was not promising. There’s a spot of hope if Oda wants to turn the idea of him throwing away his pride to use the…

One Piece chapter 996 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Hey, Oda’s finally given us an interior map of Onigashima! Kind of! I think we’re not going to know the exact floorplan of the left and right brain towers for a while, if ever, but at least we know what to look for on…
