  • One Piece Film: Strong World is Really Fun

    One Piece Film: Strong World is Really Fun

    I’m not going to do the movies in order. Mostly because this one and Z were on Netflix and none of the others were. So… sorry if that bothers you. When it comes to canon, the One Piece movies are strange. The events of the films themselves are not canon to the manga. But some…

I have retroactively changed the title of that review to reflect this, but for the sake of transparency and clarity, I…
