Ch 41, At Night, The Butler, Deceased
The look on Bard’s face here (it’s even more poignant in the anime) 💔.
The fact that Bard was grieving Sebastian’s death the entire time but hid his feelings so he could do his job and lead the others as Seb would have wanted gets me every damn time. 🥺

One Piece Academy 41 part 1 is up! Aaaaand the title is… Dark Bingo Tournament.
The majority of the chapter focuses on Cora, Law, and Class 1-1 discussing an undercover operation.
Cora tells everyone that he and Law will be infiltrating a formal event that Doffy will be attending this evening. He continues that on the surface it is Bingo Party, though the truth is that people from the criminal underground/Dark World will be meeting there.
Through a short exchange Cora has with Robin, we learn that he set the password for his computer/security system to be his birthday… and that Robin immediately figured it out, amazing hahaha. Poor Cora though.
After discussing plans over a game of Daifugo(similar to Poker,) two investigation teams are formed through everyone playing rock paper scissors.
Law is absolutely determined to be on the same team as Cora, and while he failed to play the right move in rock paper scissors, he ultimately makes Chopper switch teams with him. Law you so silly. It's sweet how much he wants to be on the same team as Corazon.
If I got all the terms down, the final teams and groups within them are:
Nami & Robin
Franky & Brook
Koby, Chopper, Vivi
They are in charge of investigating Onigashima Middle School.
And:
Luffy & Cora
Usopp, Sanji, Law
Zoro
Who are in charge of investigating Doffy's actions.
Everyone is excited to start the mission, except Law, who is exasperated at their energy, and considers going with just Cora after all.
I love this set up, major Film Gold vibes. Law trying and failing to resist getting pulled into the Straw Hats' rhythm is always fun, Cora being here is great, and investigating the enemy side, specifically Onigashima/the Beast Pirates is exactly what Kiku did while waiting for Kin to return with allies in the main manga. So I'm hoping they group meet her again at the Bingo Party!
Next update will be on the 18th/19th!

Words from Noragami, ch. 41
Words in bold are particularly relevant to the story, and words in italics seem like they’d be worth remembering outside the context of the manga. Bold and italic together means they’ve probably appeared somewhere in Noragami more than once. [Though it's been a kajillion years (okay three actual years) since I read it so I can't promise I can highlight them well anymore...]
