One Piece chapter 943 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. The hype ending panel could make this the twelfth and final chapter of volume 93 (especially possible because it has a four month gap after the last volume instead of the usual three) but the heavy exposition throughout leads me to think this is the start…

One Piece chapter 942 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Wow, what a chapter this turned out to be. I think we can safely call this the finale of volume 93, then? It has to be acknowledged at this point that Oda’s attitude towards death has shifted. I don’t see any satisfying way for Yasu to…

One Piece chapter 941 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. This chapter marks the first possible end point for volume 93, and the last pages do give us a hell of a revelation/cliffhanger to go out on, but it’s never safe to call these things until we’ve seen the hypothetical 12th chapter. Just due…

One Piece chapter 940 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. This was yet another build-up chapter, but it was a far more effective one than the last few weeks. Lots of new stuff came up to consider. First up, I loved Usopp and Nami having some time to just chill. I think their friendship…

One Piece chapter 939 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. This time I kinda like Jaimini’s interpretation of the chapter title more than the official one, but it sounds like that was a hard one to adapt, and Jaimini’s pun doesn’t feel quite like it would fit with Viz’s usual style. Hyori got a…

One Piece chapter 938 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. I really like the cover pages with Crocodile. First the one where he’s sheltering the dog from the rain, and now this cute number with the birds (and what a creative use of his powers). I hope there’s more of this in the future.…

One Piece chapter 937 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Loved the colour spread this week, though the perspective on Nami’s legs looks a bit weird. I’m sure there’s a billion theories about the globe, but I doubt it means much of anything. One thing I can’t stop noticing about One Piece globes, both…

One Piece chapter 936 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. While I’m enjoying the current plot threads, I think the last few chapters have suffered from the Dressrosa era pacing problems I thought Oda had moved past. What I mean is it would probably have been better to do the bathhouse set piece in…

One Piece chapter 935 Review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Just gonna throw it out there, Solitaire and Daifugo are probably the best smile users so far in terms of appearance/powers. It’s good to see they aren’t guaranteed to disadvantage the users. Babanuki is also interesting. At a glance, I thought the elephant’s lower…

One Piece chapter 934 Review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Holy shit there’s a map of Wano. I’ve been waiting so long. Interesting how broken up it all is. I wonder if we’ll learn it’s all connected underwater like Long Ring Long Land, or if the different climates mentioned infer that it’s an archipelago…
