But yeah, Bleach and a good deal of other Shonen tend to work a bit better in volumes.

I am glad you agree with my description of that picture; it really is well drawn.

As for Momonosuke, I agree. It does seem like Don Flamingo did something evil to that poor kid’s homeland.

Thanks a lot for the compliment and best wishes. I have finals soon, so my current life is a bit hectic (that’s why I haven’t written newer Weekly Shonen chapters yet).

It is almost like he is telling the bad guy: “I pity your troubled soul”.” Looking back, when I think in the detail Kubo put in Yamamoto’s drawings I think he was saying a lovely good bye to a dear character, so, even if Yamamoto’s deat was so suddenly I felt it kind of expected.

Bleach as seinen? I think that could be possible, mmm, I think it wasn’t a lot of blood, but maybe I should read those chapters again.

About Momonosuke and this doubt: “I have no idea why he got spooked all of a sudden and started flying”, I think he got scared by Don Flamingo’s face, he saw Luffy as Don Flamingo in his delusion, I’m wondering which is the link between them, maybe Don Flamingo invaded Momonosuke’s island.

Nice reviews, I liked a lot Bleach’s one. Hope the best for your midterms, which were a lot time ago, but still, hope the best.
