Crunchyroll Feature-The Special Way One Piece Uses Music to Enhance Its Stories

Another day, another One Piece feature. This time I took a look at One Piece's use of music, which has really shone since Whole Cake Island.

Crunchyroll Feature-What Makes Katakuri Such A Great Villain? He’s Just A Regular Guy Who Loves Donuts

In celebration of last month's National Donut Day, I took the opportunity to write about one of my favorite One Piece villains: Katakuri.

For my latest CR feature, I took a look at Khun's role in Tower of God, and how the nature of the Tower's challenges makes having a schemer like him on your side a necessity.

Crunchyroll Feature-With the Wano Arc, One Piece is Finally Nearing its Endgame

For my latest CR feature, I returned to One Piece to write about Wano's significance in the broader story. Weird as it is to imagine, One Piece might just be ending soon(ish).

For my latest Crunchyroll feature (I know this post is two weeks late, blame forgetfulness and law school) I took a look at Tower of God's use of atmosphere to hook the audience in its first episode.
