Quest!

One Piece is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year. It is a cartoon about a boy who sails off to sea to become the Pirate King and beats up a lot of people along the way. It's practically Shakespearean, except nobody dies.

Lawsons - the 24 hour convenient store and my primary vendor of Pocky - is sponsoring a One Piece celebration. The store has printed up awesome quality images of the One Piece crew's wanted posters. Eight in all.

After some back and forth, we established that they do not sell the posters. You get a poster free, if you buy a Bunch of specially marked items in store. After even more back and forth, we established the magic number at Two.

We have so far collected two posters. And by the Power of Greyskull, we shall collect them all!

Sweet! Good luck on the quest!

I can only hope you strike an appropriate RPG-style victory pose after acquiring each poster.

Also, just had to chime in that all of the specially marked items have actually been good. We got skim chocolate reindeer milk, some absolutely delicious small chocolate 'bites' (I am the only one who can really attest to their deliciousness, since I think Lance only got 1), and a fruit cup in a pink reindeer mug (I haven't actually eaten the fruit yet, but you get to keep the adorable mug!)

That's awesome! Glad to hear the arrival went well, and that the arcade lived up to expectations. Can't wait to see the photos. :D
