White Sand omnibus review
White Sand was the last piece of Brandon Sanderson’s Cosmere I tracked down when I first got up to date and I almost immediately reached the conclusion that it is the universe’s worst story, and that it wasn’t close. It was a slog to get through, and until my reread I could not have told…

One Piece chapter 1084 review
That is a powerful Jump cover this week, Luffy is looking damn good. And then on the flip side we have a very fanservice-y colour spread. We say ‘fanservice,’ but really these things seem to be authorservice as much as anything else. Oda draws like he’s just discovered that the t shirt and bikini bottom…

One Piece chapter 1083 review
Well colour me surprised that we’re not just continuing straight on with the scene that ended the last chapter but going into what seems to be a full-fledged, multi-chapter Reverie flashback. This is not guaranteed of course – most flashbacks end mid-chapter with the black panel gutters fading back to white, but there were also…

One Piece chapter 1082 review
I’m on around my third chapter’s worth of saying let’s get back to Egghead already, but Oda keeps giving me things I’m not asking for that manage to greatly entertain me regardless. I’m starting to wonder how much of volume 107 we’re going to spend away from the main plot at this point. If volume…

Choo Choo Charles Review
Choo Choo Charles is an experience I really, genuinely wish I could recommend more than I do. Had it been a free or Pay What You Want Itch.io experience I might be telling everyone I knew to run off and play it and give Two Star Games as many pageviews and word of mouth connections…

One Piece chapter 1081 review
We get another banger of a chapter to lead into Golden Week here, and I’m thrilled to finally be learning a little more about Kuzan’s motivations and movements in the past couple of years. I’m definitely looking forward to getting back to Egghead though. The colour spread is gorgeous with some wonderful colour choices. It’s…

One Piece chapter 1080 review
Watch the video version of this review on YouTube here! We are really spending some time away from the main plot of the arc here, aren’t we? I was talking after the last chapter about how weird it is structurally, and getting this whole other full chapter with nothing to do with the Strawhats while…

Rhythm of War review
This text was originally posted to Reddit shortly after the book’s release in 2020, and contains full book spoilers for Rhythm of War and all preceding volumes of The Stormlight Archive. The good: The whole central plot thread of Urithiru being occupied was fantastic and great fun throughout. Kaladin as a character benefited enormously from…

One Piece chapter 1079 review
Watch the video version of this review on YouTube here. Well. I don’t think anyone really saw this coming. Not Kid getting annihilated, that was a foregone conclusion, but taking almost a full chapter to show it here and now. We’re around two chapters into a new volume, so it’s not a cliffhanger cutaway or…

One Piece chapter 1078 review
Watch the video version of this review on YouTube here. For a short chapter it sure as hell feels like a lot happened this week, and Oda’s building up Egghead to be a much more pivotal arc than I think anyone expected it to be. With the flashback over, it feels like the cover story…
