'the Best Form Of Sabotage Is Self- Sabotage'

Mihawk, age 41: *sitting in his castle sipping wine, with Zoro and Perona running around arguing* Not a moment's peace around here.

Mihawk, age 43: *balancing a crying Nemo on his hip while making dinner as Gryphon cleaves the furniture in half, Gabe runs around playing, and Buggy is doing one of his speeches that gets everybody cheering* It's quiet today.

'what's for dinner today?'

'kacchan'

If someone told me that Tomura slept hanging upside down like a bat, I’d believe them.

i think we as a fandom are blessed with amount of characters and foggy dynamic between them because it gives us so many opportunities for shipping.

you like enemies to lovers? here you go dabihawks

you into high school sweethearts? no problem erasermic

you like kinda bratty dynamic? shigadabi

opposite attraction? shinkami

introvert/extrovert? tododeku

age gap? aideku

polyamory? erasercloudmic

the same thing goes with headcanons

uraraka is bi? no problem. toga's lesbian? okay. aizawa's aroace? i can see this. league of villains is in queer platonic relationship? cool

brilliant that's just brilliant and I LOVE THIS FREEDOM SO MUCH

i love when curiosity drives me to see what's going on in the more obscure hypothetically Problematique ship tags of a fandom (incest pairings and the like), and almost invariably i find very little fic but the fic that does exist is always like, over a dozen works written singlehandedly by one Extremely Dedicated Pervert. we need to cherish these people. support your fandom's local pervert today they're a load-bearing part of the ecosystem

it’s literally endlessly fucking funny to me how certifiably insane post timeskip sabo is about his brothers. he remembered who luffy and ace were and they immediately rocketed to #1 on his priority list with absolutely no contest. he devotes himself to being an older brother with the same fanatical obsession that he’s been using to lead revolutions and luffy is so used to ‘older brother’ meaning ‘guy who has attached a significant portion of his self worth and meaning in life to you’ that it fully doesn’t even register as weird to him. he manages to secretly make luffy a vivre card and luffy acts this is reasonable rational behavior!!! just normal older brother shit for them to be fully neck deep in your business without ever mentioning it!!!! cannot believe they ever managed to make us think sabo was the normal rational one. what the fuck lmao

Notes

One Piece Academy is an ongoing official One Piece spinoff that releases in Monthly Saikyo Jump. In the magazine, the chapters are roughly 40 pages, but they're divided into two parts and released bimonthly on the official site.

You can find chapters 1-32 translated unofficially in several manga piracy sites [ x or y ]. Raws for 33 onwards can be found here.

Like most spinoffs, the original author isn't involved in its writing. However, it has been confirmed that Oda himself decided the nicknames exchanged between characters (Cora and the SHs) in the donquixote brothers arc.

For latest chapters, check the official site. It removes access to free chapters as new ones add up, so if you like a specific chapter, better keep all pages saved!

Here's the author's Twitter.

At the moment, I'm only translating specific chapters or arcs that feature Law. This post is updated after each new translation.

There are varying and excellent ideas about what would happen if Zoro was in whole cake, but I am here to tell you that if he had been there, he'd have mistaken one or more of Sanji's brothers for Sanji, and in no particular order, would have 1. told them to get back in the kitchen and make him a sandwich 2. asked them what the fuck they did to their hair, because they look uglier than usual now 3. smacked their ass or something all of those things combined would have made them feel some emotion

me, looking at shigaraki who slowly goes insane: he's just silly little guy who does silly little things

I think if Sanji was trans fem and she finally accepted herself in her two years in Momoiro, she would be very nervous to meet the crew again in Sabaody. She looks... different, but she's happier. She knows deep down that her friends would be fine with the changes, but worry eats at her anyway. She's scared. Scared of rejection, scared of losing her family. She doesn't want to choose between them and being herself. It's not fair.

While the most vile, negative thoughts are going through her head, she runs into Brook before his final concert. The moment she sees Brook, the skeleton goes "Yohohoho~ What a lovely lady we have here. Can I see your panties, Sanji-san?"

And Sanji doesn't know if she wants to kick him or start crying, because that was somehow one of the most gender affirming moments she's ever had.

Maybe things will be fine after all. (She did indeed kick Brook, though.)
