Thank you so much to the One Piece Crew for commissioning this episode!

These episodes are the ones where Chopper gives Dr. Hogback a piece of his mind regarding his medical malpractice, and we also find out just who Cindry was and how she ended up here. It's a pretty horrible story, and adding to the fact that Hogback claimed to like her personality but had no qualms about sticking someone else's shadow into her body...that tells you all you need to know.

Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

These chapters see our friends returning to Skyhold and watching as all of the occupants prepare for an imminent siege. While they're taking the precautions seriously, it really doesn't seem as if anyone is truly concerned about the Havathi breaching Skyhold, and the main focus here is everyone returning to classes and the mentorship program that has Hugh wound a little tight.

The best way for me to summarize these chapters is to say, "Oh, Jia. What the fuck are you doing."

I'm really tired of this bitch acting like a martyr when there are plenty of other options on how to handle things and she's just got no faith in people so she acts like those options don't exist. She's decided that Phyro's too much of a threat and she's going to allow Soto to tell him who killed his mother in order to inflame him. She's SO SURE he's going to completely flip out and plunge the whole country into war, and I'm looking forward to her realizing her mistake.

These are some wonderful episodes. After finding out that Usopp is the only one who can resist Perona's powers because he has a naturally occurring negative personality, this section we get to see him pursue her and go up against some things that turn out to be very convincing illusions. It's fitting that he's the king of lying and tricks going up against someone who relies on trickery once her other weapons are proved ineffective.

We're finally getting into the next book and Hugh is recovering from some truly horrific injuries. I really feel for the kid because the process sounds slow, frustrating, and exhausting.

Meanwhile Talia is coming up with a pretty wild idea on how to create armor for herself, and we get to meet Loarna!

In these chapters, we're still in the midst of a battle and we're seeing even more of the technological advancements Dara (namely Ruthi) has come up with, which include what amounts to a light-seeking missle.

This is a wild ride.

These are the ones in which Oars completely levels all the zombie generals without a single bit of concern for the fact that they're all supposed to be on the same side. Unfortunately, in addition to this delightful sequence we get the unfortunate revelation that Sanji had really wanted to get the invisibility fruit for himself so that he could spy on naked girls.

*sigh*

In case you missed the convo on Discord, (which you can join here!), YES I COMPLETELY SKIPPED EPISODE SEVENTEEN. I will also be going back and editing the shownotes for Chapter Eighteen to avoid confusion.

Thank you to Lauren for commissioning this episode!

This is the episode where Jane copes with the breakup, and I'm personally feeling like it's better in the long run but I think I'm supposed to be more heartbroken than I am. I'm mostly sad on Jane's behalf, and just hoping that this breakup doesn't open the door for Michael to get his foot int he door again.

Thank you for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

These are the episodes where Sanji turns out to have the ability to burst into flames, and I'm absoluetly here for it. However, I'm even MORE here for Usopp's power, which is simply BEING NEGATIVE. This is brilliant.

Thank you all so much for listening, and I will see you soon with a new episode!

It's time for the FINAL CHAPTERS of The Lost City Of Ithos, and I hope that you all will bear with me towards the end because this is when I got the news about Sam's terrible infection from the vet live on the air and get pretty emotional.

The way that this book ends is kind of delightful because it seemed that John Bierce knew he had to do something with the Cold Minds and yet had painted himself into a bit of a corner with what totally unstoppable world-destroyers they are. I think he handled it quite well!

Thanks for listening, and I will see you soon with the start of The Siege Of Skyhold!
