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…

One Piece chapter 987 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Man, Oda has been on an absolute roll for the past few chapters. Everything from the end of the Oden flashback on has been good, but these past few weeks have been spectacular. It warms my heart to finally see Jinbe hanging out with…

One Piece chapter 986 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Welp, that’s not where I expected the cover story to go. Pretty funny twist, but I’m stilling waiting on the big plot or lore thing that makes it all worthwhile. Lola and Chiffon’s reunion alone doesn’t feel like enough. The handling of Kanjuro so…

One Piece chapter 985 review
This text was originally written for Arlong Park forums’ discussion thread. Man, this is a strong contender for chapter of the year, and this is the year that started with “Roger’s Adventure,” just going to show much hype there is behind it. I’m gonna put my prediction down that this is the first chapter of…
