Seeing book peeps on the tags hyping up Egwene's damane training made me curious enough to take a peek at that part in the books, and I wonder if it's because I just read chopped up bits, but I actually still think the book was more painful than the series.

I mean, the series did a fucking fantastic job of it. Fantastic. Amazing. Showstopping. But I wonder if, because it's a visual medium, and they had to rely on showing Egwene in physical pain, getting physically beat up, physically chocked, etc, it didn't horrify me as much as the insidious psychologic terrorism portrayed in the book.

The passages I read were all going on about how the... what is it... the sul'dam? The sul'dam can feel what the damane is feeling, and can feel what she's channeling, and how you can't think of something as a weapon, and that kind of magical mind controlling scares me to hell and back. Getting physically beaten up is a thing that can happen in our world, but having your thoughts magically policed?? Horrifying. Triple-D Disturbing.

I'm jumping off a bridge. Their backstory is so tragic, I can't.

The fact that even Queenie being in the state she was, Kinger still found humanity in her, the fact that he risked his life knowing she could go crazy and attack him just so he could touch her one last time.

And the fact that Queenie allowed him to do it, the fact that she was able to keep control as a abstracted just so she could feel him. Because she loved him and he loved her back and both of them knew her fate, but in that moment, it was just them, their last moment together so both made it work.

This is such a powerful image I want to hug both of them.

What if Pomni seeks out comfort from Kinger bc of the last episode??

Pages 2 and 3 should be done soon-

But I love the idea of Kinger's comforting words and advice struck a cord with Pomni, so despite his memory issues she still seeks his comfort out- though going to him at night yields some problems as shown...

Anyways girl dad Kinger !!!!!!

Rick Riordan constantly trashing the movies for not sticking to his books then releasing a show in which he rewrites everything and loses the spirit of the books entirely

To me, what is so fantastic about One Piece Fan Letter is the emphasis on the way the Straw Hats have created these connections in the lives of people they have never met. The ending scene, with all the hands putting together the puzzle pieces, and the way that all these connections came together in one dazzling way-- I loved that. I teared up at that. Wherever the Straw Hats go, they leave behind all of these puzzle pieces for people to put together and create bonds that would not have existed had the Straw Hats not shown up!

And it also just... Makes me so in love with the concept of the world after Luffy becomes King of The Pirates. I know that Oda has the final chapter planned in his head, and I doubt we will really see the long lasting effects of Luffy achieving the title of Pirate King + his dream, and I really do not want a sequel series ala Boruto or Yasahime, but.... I want to see a world in which children believe they can become a Brave Warrior of the Sea thanks to Usopp, I want to see more children look at Nami and realize they don't NEED to have a Devil Fruit or Haki or muscles to have adventures. I want to see the next generation of the One Piece world believe so strongly in their dreams, that they set out to accomplish them.

One Piece Fan Letter really opened the door, I think, for more and more stories about the "regular" people in the world of One Piece, the people you don't see in the arcs because they're the nondescript background characters, and how the Straw Hat Crew has changed them. And I want that. To me, that is fantastic.
