Worth Reading

Let me preface by saying I have read hundreds of fan fictions across around 50 fandoms. If the writer can maintain this quality, without being pressured to rush something out filled with forced plot, plot holes, etc., then, I am confident, this will be one of the top 10 I have ever read. Presently, I have the story rated at an 8.9/10.

This is already both the best Slayers fan fiction and the best One-Piece fan fiction I have come across. Most fanfics of either of these series, much less both of them combined, turn into horrible bouts of idiocy in attempts at forcing humor and failing miserably. I'm very pleased to say that has not happened here, though, I certainly see the potential for that to happen if the author listen to some of the comments I have read.

Pretty good job with pacing overall. There are not too many useless scenes. Most authors waste their own time, and the reader's time, with far too much fluff when they should stick to trimming out everything that does not directly advance the plot or develop characters. I am enjoying the characterization of those from both series.

I am very glad this is not following the story of either series. There are far too many fan fiction out there that simply repeat the original story thus making them mostly pointless reads.

The fight scenes are done quite well and I am enjoying them. There are only a few stories I can think of that portray fights better.

This story is definitely worth a read for those that are fans of both series. For those that do not like incomplete stories one can simply read until chapter 7 which is a good place to end if one is so inclined.
