One Piece chapter 969 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Oof, what a chapter! I was not expecting another legacy devil fruit to be playing a part here. The need for Semimaru and Higurashi to die before the present day is an interesting plot problem. Any other series, I would confidently be expecting Oden…

One Piece chapter 968 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Man, I was starting to wonder how close we were to getting an unprecedented whole volume of flashbacks for volume 96, but it’s not even close. This is only the fourth chapter of the book. All the end of year breaks have thrown my…

One Piece chapter 967 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. First thing to say about this one, and it sucks that it has to be a negative, is that someone has really dropped the ball with the release timing for this one. Absolutely no avoiding spoilers. And every year the first issue leaks super early, so…

One Piece chapter 966 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. What a beautiful chapter this was! I’m not usually one to focus on powerlevels or the characters’ apparent strength, but this strikes me as a good time to have a think about it, since we’ve likely just seen what the absolute power ceiling looks…

One Piece chapter 965 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. I was hoping we’d get the full colours for the volume 95 cover with this chapter, but ah well, next week for sure. I’m not shocked Oda chose to gloss over the bulk of Oden and Toki’s romance. Nothing we’ve seen so far suggests…

One Piece chapter 964 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Oh so that‘s why there was one more chapter left in the volume. Yeah, that’s the right place to end it. The question raised by the cover story now is this: is Kuween doing what she was doing because of who she is as a…

One Piece chapter 963 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Reading through this, I would really have expected it to be the final chapter of volume 95, because what a note to end on, but according to the volume’s pagecount we’ve got one more to go. What could Oda possibly add to make a…

One Piece chapter 962 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Rejoyce, for at last we’re getting a cover story with a Donquixote Family member. We can put the old debate to rest forever: yes, Kuween made it out of there alive. It’s One Piece, what did we exect? Glad to have all the loose…

One Piece chapter 961 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. After fighting a monstrous boar and being exiled from his hometown, Kozuki Oden must travel across the land to find a cure for his curse and see with eyes unclouded by hate… wait no, wrong story, that’s not right. Pack it up. Denjiro is…

One Piece chapter 960 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Man, Oden just has the biggest dick energy, doesn’t he? Oda’s been building this guy up to be a huge personality in a world comprised almost exclusively of big personalities, and so far I’m not disappointed. He’s not just loud and capable and constantly doing what…
