I wanted to write this journal to say that I am finally caught up to the One Piece anime.. specifically the English dub. I started watching One Piece in August 2023 and it took a total of 9 months to have made it to this point. During my watching of one piece I've grown to love the series. I laughed, cryed and felt all sorts of emotions. I've even draw some one piece art here and there. I had considered drawing more OP art but with the passing of Akira Toriyama back in March I had to redirect my artistic passion. I'm truly thankful to have watch such an amazing series since I originally watched one piece when it aired on 4kidstv as well as Back and forth airing of Toonami for many years now. I also have been caught up with the manga since 2019. I look forward to what one piece has in store for the future
