One Piece chapter 1124 review
Egghead lingers on for one last coda, but it’s worth staying for, closing those last few emotional openings that we’d all been wondering about. But there’s kind of not a lot to say about it. The things that happen pay off the arc’s buildup in ways that make sense, and they all work well in…

One Piece chapter 1123
The idea of arcs and sagas as a two-tier approach to story structure exists mostly in fan wikis rather than officially released material, but it was an effective way to show how a lot of the overarching pre-timeskip stories came together over multiple islands. Post-timeskip, that model became largely irrelevant as everything started to point…

One Piece chapter 1122 review
See, all you people who ask why we don’t see more of Smoker, all you have to do to make him appear is write a decade-long bestselling rival manga. If you wanted it that bad you’d be doing it already, so get cracking! In all actual seriousness though, Hero Aca had a strong run and…

One Piece chapter 1121 review
I think there can be no doubt about it – this is the climax of Egghead and the finale of volume 110. There may technically be one last chapter to go at the start of the next volume as Emet makes his final play and Vegapunk signs off, but there’s no mistaking that the moment…

One Piece chapter 1120 review
Nineteen pages without even the extra two added by a colour spread. Wow. This hasn’t happened since… chapter 869, back in 2017. We’re 10 chapters into volume 110 but I don’t think it’s over yet, not with the amount of 13 pagers in the run. I think there’s a pretty good chance this volume and…

One Piece chapter 1119 review
Yes, it’s a short one again and yes, there’s a break again, but I’m just happy to be back doing three chapters in a row, you know? Let’s hope things stay this way for a bit. It’s definitely a good chapter for the idea of ‘please for the love of god wait a week if…

One Piece chapter 1118 review
A very short chapter here, with kind of not a lot to discuss besides the ending, but I definitely enjoyed it. Egghead is clearly developing to its conclusion with one escape ship away and the other close behind. It’s exciting to think Elbaf is coming so soon, after all these years. Even with what we…

One Piece chapter 1117 review
And so ends the Broadcast Era (any Three Body readers here?) after a long few months. The breaks were certainly not kind to this sequence, but I think it will be remembered fondly. One Piece’s biggest strength is how populated and alive its world feels, and emphasising that all these supporting characters are still relevant…

One Piece chapter 1116 review
Aww, I was so hopeful we could get to the end of the broadcast before the next break, but it seems like two weeks on, one week off is just our life now. At least the end does seem to be close. Yamato certainly seems popular in the Flower Capital, which is probably a good…

One Piece chapter 1115 review
I’m looking forward to reading this run of chapters all in one go without the breaks. The biggest lore bombs since the Reverie, intercut with series-spanning blasts from the past as we can see that everyone we’ve met before this point is impacted by the current story. Every new line of concrete info that gets…
