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…

One Piece chapter 995 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Big Mom VS Marco is going to look stunning in colour with the red and blue flames cascading away from each other. Even though it’s a short clash, you’re doing something right if you’ve managed to invoke the end of ATLA. We’re at a…

One Piece chapter 993-994 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 993’s release. I think we were offline for two chapters’ worth of discussion, so I’ll quickly throw notes down on both. We’re at the end of volume 98…

One Piece chapter 992 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Great chapter to come back on after a long two weeks off (though that’s still a small price to pay for Oda’s health). Interesting choice to put Yamato on the Jump cover. He’s technically an important figure, but he’s not doing much of note at the…

One Piece chapter 991 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Nine chapters to the big quadruple digits, and Oda working hard to get there this year as well! I hope he makes it! Okay, cover story, cathartic tears for the big reunion. Now can we move on to a little actual lore/story to close…

One Piece chapter 990 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. As we count down to the big quadruple digit, it’s worth keeping in mind that other multiple of 100 chapters weren’t always earth-shattering either. They can be things that don’t play into the bigger story, but are long-awaited in their arc, like Luffy landing…

One Piece chapter 989 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Another fantastic chapter. Oda’s killing it well into his second Onigashima volume, and there’s no reason to think this hot streak won’t continue. This cover story has to be going somewhere, right? The huge and extremely aggressive Navy presence might be an indication of…

One Piece chapter 988 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Another week, another new chapter that doesn’t come with the volume 97 cover. If it weren’t for all the breaks, we’d almost have volume 98 complete before it comes out (edit: spoke too soon, it’s finally here). Lucky the chapters are so damn good…
