TL;DR | One Piece Is So Fun and Full of Heart

I have only seen about three episodes of the One Piece anime, and I have never read the manga. I always felt like I would love it if I just dove in, but I didn’t have the time to invest in the long-running series. From the first trailer for the live action adaptation though, I knew I would be watching it. And holy crap, I absolutely loved the first season. It’s so earnest and heartfelt, and the themes of friendship and following your dreams are ever-present. It reminds me of the Paddington movies, which I adore. I cannot wait for season two.

New Music Friday | August 25, 2023

 

Happy new music Friday, friends!

Some great stuff this week, led by the new Dethklok album for me--it's amazing. I am digging the new Asking Alexandria as well, and I was totally surprised by the new Vandenberg album, which sounds like it could have been the next Whitesnake album right after Slip of the Tongue. 80s fans should be checking that out. 

What are you listening to this weekend?
