Oh shit we're back!

This chapter didn't advance the story that much from 993, but I really like where the story's at right now so I still enjoyed it a lot anyway.

Now 993 on the other hand... I...

Jack being more of a son to him than Yamato would be lowkey-hilarious. I hope this is true now.

I have this personal theory that Oda really likes it when characters have conflicting, borderline-contradictory character traits. So having a villain that doesn't care about his lower ranks, but is...

It would have been more like a 7 or 7.5, except "Roger Just Laughed" is a legitimate contender for my favorite moment in the series.

I haven't been commenting as much as I'd like lately but,

If we get a full chapter of Nami & Usopp vs. Ulti & Page One then Wano immediately goes from a hit-or-miss 8-8.5 to a perfect 10.

Finished it and, yeah, I loved basically everything about this game. Might even be a top 10 favorite game, or at least very close. I've still got some side content to chip away at while I'm also...

Over the last few months I've been playing:

Yakuza Kiwami: Everyone says this game isn't as good as Yakuza 0, and while I agree, the gap wasn't as large as I was afraid it was going to be. Haruka...

I haven't been commenting as much I as I'd like to lately, but I've really been loving basically everything since we've gotten to Onigashima. In particular, all of the new characters are immediately...

I'm not sure how true this is, but I've heard that the author has deal with certain family issues, and had to hurry through the latter chapters as a result. If that's the case, I can't really get mad...

Yakuza 0 is fuuuuuun. The story, the humor, characters, the sidequests, the style. Aside from a bad minigame here and there, everything about this game clicks for me. Officially a fan of this series.

I'll probably just watch the Mayuri scenes and Yamamoto's Bankai.

I've always found that part of the appeal of (good) long fights. You feel about as exhausted and triumphant as the heroes by the end.

I don't see any point in fight speculation when we don't even know all of Kaidou's crew. Not to mention there are probably going to be a bunch of outside forces (Whitebeard Pirates, Blackbeard...

Really good chapter. However, I hope this isn't the end of the fight, I want Nezuko to do something before this is over.

I hope we can all at least agree that Inosuke is cool and Muzan is kind of meh.

Funny thing about the whole "One Piece vs. Yaiba" thing. I started reading Yaiba at a point where I was feeling...

I like the beginning of the chapter with Oden and the Akazaya's escape, and I liked the end of the chapter with Denjiro. That stuff was very heartwarming and satisfying. Denjiro is a cool dude.
...

Even One Piece only got as big as it did because of an anime movie boost. Downplaying Yaiba for doing the same thing is just double-standards.

Anyway, the last couple of chapters were a big...

If we're talking about how they are at their roles then:

Top Class/Making excellent progress:
Luffy (Captain): Fifth Emperor. On track to Pirate King
Zoro (Swordsman): Currently wields the...

Very solid chapter, but not an outstanding one IMO. Biggest issue for me was actually the art/paneling. Having Oden's final moments happen in a couple of tiny panels instead of a big impactful one...

So I guess this confirms that we’re going to see Luffy in next couple of chapters. Was kind of hoping Oda would go a whole volume without him, if only for variety.

Alright, what do we still have to cover in this flashback? By my count:
-Oden's death
-Team Kinemon returning to Oden castle
-Team Kinemon being sent to the future
-Why Cat and Dog started...

Keep the amount of people that Orochi was normally kidnapping and selling in mind, 100 every week. That is not a small number at all. Oden was going around "traveling from region to region making...

I actually don't think I've ever seen a story where a ruler genuinely hates and wants to destroy his own country before. I've seen ones where they were insane and wanted it destroyed (Eneru, for...

We're currently 6 chapters into the volume, and the current flashback looks like it will continue into the next chapter. I kind of want to see if Oda can break tradition and go a full volume without...

Man, aside from maybe the Villain arc I don't think I've ever been this excited for the start of an MHA arc.

I think this is the arc where we're going to finally find out who the traitor is. This...

Oh, so it's not just me who's feeling down on the Muzan fight. I was wondering whether or not it was just "weekly fatigue" finally setting in but I guess it really is pretty flawed.

I think the...

I was thinking the same thing. I guess I was just saying that if Kaidou being a cheat is going to be a thing, then he should be the biggest cheat of all his crew.

Much better chapter than the spoilers and my speed-skim through the scans made it out to be, but I'm still pretty mixed on the chapter. Storywise I thought it was fine/acceptable, but the...

Hot take.

One of the most frequent complaints about this arc is a lack of emotional investment in the citizens of Wano, but I'm not feeling any major difference from most other non-future-strawhat...

Loved this chapter, just like the rest of this flashback.

I'm going to make a guess and say that Oden wanting boats as a part of the deal means that at least part of the agreement was for Orochi...
