I made a video on this topic but editing it has been a nightmare! So I thought I'd use this newly formed blog as a platform to get this message across =)
Recently I've seen some comments on my YT channel for me to start talking about One Piece. And to be very honest with you, I have never seen or read One Piece ever. You want to know why? It looks like utter shit. I know it has a large following, its just that it doesn't appeal to me at all! Maybe its the art style or maybe it has to do with the fact that its about bloody pirates.
Pirates are not my cup of tea, unless you count Captain Jack Sparrow, and let me tell you, Luffy is not Captain Jack.
But I thought that I may give One Piece a shot, I mean watching one episode or reading one chapter isn't going to kill me. But still the thought of enduring pirates is rather disturbing, I'd much rather have someone endure it with me. Then some kind of imaginary light bulb lit up in my head (ew, SO cliche) what about a series in which we endure ugly pirates together? Hear me out, so we all pick a manga to read (or anime to watch) and we read up to a certain point a week, then I make a video discussing what went down in that section; in the video I'd include the thoughts of the members of the manga club.
How does that sound? Doesn't have to be One Piece, I'd probably prefer it if it wasn't to be very honest with you all. But you never know, I may end up falling in love with it.
Ok, probably not
Much love

WOW! you seem to have a serious vendetta against pirates with the exception of captain jack sparrow, it's seems you were attacked by pirates at a very young age, it's tough i known what it must feel like, i too was attacked not by pirates but by ninjas in orange jump suits it was horrible they took all my ramen noodles along with my pet snake tony lol
ReplyDeleteanyways if you can gather a group of 5 or more anime and manga fans including myself we can try this manga reading club thing out and see where it goes, I'll see if i can get some friends to try this out with me. As I said earlier it seems like a good idea hit me up when you are ready.
