On this week’s episode of The One Piece Podcast we have a Manga Recap for Chapter 789, “Lucy!!” and an Anime Recap of Episode 696. On today’s show we have Stephen Paul (the translator for One Piece in Weekly Shonen Jump), Joey Weiser (author of the Eisner Award nominated Mermin), Steve, Ed, and Zach to take us through the week’s latest events. Due to time constraints, there is no Piece Together this week. The podcast is taking off next week, but The Great One Piece Readthrough is going strong!
