ONE PIECE 109ONE PIECE 109 by Eiichiro Oda
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Brilliant. Again.

If the end of the previous volume wasn't emotional enough, we get the real payoff of Kuma and Bonnie at the beginning of this one. I'm shocked and elated and actually screaming at the page. Yeah, it's that kind of thing. I'm affected by it as much as "I want to live" or "Aaaaaaacccceeeeeee!".

But things just get HAIRY as hell after that. We've got the BIG fight. The elders. Luffy. The Giants. All the Pacifistas. It's crazy. I'm loving every second of it.

To my synesthesia, I feel like I've walked into a Bed, Bath, and Beyond. An overwhelming panoply of smells assaulting all my senses, almost KO-ing me. It's not something I can handle too much of, but for a brief time, it's kinda everything all at once and transcendent.


Personal note:
If anyone reading my reviews might be interested in reading my own SF, I'm going to be open to DM requests. I think it's about time I get some eyes on them.

Trouble on Paradise by Craig Alanson My rating: 3 of 5 stars Honestly? It was an okay mil-SF from the PoV of those left behind on Paradis...
