You couldn't ask to for a better time to be a fan of the long running franchise following Monkey D. Luffy and his crew, with the Wano Country arc moving forward in both the manga and the anime. Though obviously, the two mediums are at completely different points in the arc, it is still proving to be one of the best installments of the franchise that we've seen to this date. Though Oda has noted that an end date is in sight for Luffy and his pals, the Wano story arc is still firing on all cylinders and we'll still have years of story to mull over.

On other fronts, the fourteenth One Piece feature length film, Stampede, released to both critical and financial acclaim in Japan a few weeks ago. Breaking records across the board, western fans of the Grand Line are waiting for their shot at seeing this latest movie that unites all the pirates under the promise of Gol D. Roger's lost treasure as a part of a contest established by the Pirate Expo. Needless to say, the movie has promised to deliver some of the franchise's best battles and stellar animation.
