One Piece chapter 1028 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. It only makes sense to go from a Zoro chapter to a Sanji one, just to keep things even. The colour spread here is definitely going to go down as a favourite. Oda would be a Smash Bros fan, wouldn’t he? A few of…

One Piece chapter 1027 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. We get a cool, actiony chapter for the likely opening of volume 102. There’s not a lot of substance that can be said about it – all the main plot threads are just chugging along their expected paths – but that doesn’t make it…

One Piece chapter 1026 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Oh man, I thought like the last chapter felt like a great end to volume 101, but even though this one doesn’t have quite as memorable a final page it’s hard to imagine the book being complete without Luffy and Kaido splitting the sky.…

One Piece chapter 1025 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. We’re at the first possible end point for volume 101, and what a place it is to stop. We’re also back to normal cover pages, which once again raises the question of which chapter the WT100 spread will be made part of for the…

One Piece chapter 1024 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. While not as mindblowingly great as the last few, Oda’s still going strong in this, the ninth chapter of volume 101, which is shaping up to be one of the series most memorable volumes. Interestingly, the official releases don’t see the WT100 spread as part of…

One Piece chapter 1023 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Man, this was a satisfying one to read. Oda couldn’t have done a better job if he’d asked me personally what he should cover. First, he draws a connection between King’s Fire and the idea of humans spontaneously combusting, which I wrote a whole…

One Piece chapter 1022 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. This week we finally get the overhead view of the Onigashima interior people have been asking for literally since the battle started. But what we’re shown here actually raises a few new questions. At a glance, I wasn’t sure how to reconcile the view…

One Piece chapter 1021 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. What a fantastic chapter. It felt a lot like an Enies Lobby fight, with its clever tricks and new powers that don’t fully make sense coming out of nowhere, but you excuse it because they’re just so freaking cool. Brook gets sold a little…

One Piece chapter 1020 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. It took a while to get to the crew fights for this arc, and a lot of people were worried after Nami’s clash with Ulti underperformed, but I think it’s safe to say after these past three chapters that it was overall worth the…

One Piece chapter 1019 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. We’re about halfway through volume 101 now and Oda definitely seems to be using this book to wrap up the crew battles and leave only the final round against Kaido for 102. The end is close. And man, people complain about fights being so…
