You will never not convince me that the three sword style isn’t cool as fuck!

Still stunned by the fact that he only got a vague synopsis of the plot and had to rush the poster cause it feels perfect for the movie.

It probably comes from watching a bunch of American movies and tv-shows but I've always wanted to eat Chinese takeout out of one of these boxes and was always a bit bummed that we don't have them in Sweden.

Oh yeah, that's some good emotional devastation.

The one issue I have with it is that the family doesn’t end up accepting Debbie or that she comes around to liking them.

If I were to rewrite it I’d make her gleeful about finding someone, Fester, she can’t kill and they end up having a ton of fun trying poisons and various lethal methods.

The Autopsy of Jane Doe, the dread and atmosphere it builds is impeccable.

I thought that “the crew is never coming back” was referring to the Straw Hats never returning to the East Blue which felt a bit overdramatic.

Then I realized it’s not referring to the Straw Hats.

For comparison. I dunno why I felt like they wouldn’t do his hair like that since they’ve been incredibly faithful to OP’s aesthetic but still!

I don’t know why I keep being surprised that they make the characters in the love-action series look like they do in the anime and manga but holy shit, they really made Crocus look like Crocus!

I remember reading a quote about how going to Japan is the millennial midlife crisis, our dads bought cars, we go to Tokyo.

So anyway I’m considering a trip to Japan during my birthday.

Dude, I’m a One Piece fan and the best we got were the Dynasty Warrior style games and there’s only so much you can do with those.

But yeah, at least it’s not the endless arena fighters of Naruto.
