What do you like about Sanji?
My sweet baby boy, I love how passionate he is about cooking, about the people he loves, and he has had a huge impact on me personally. I also want to push him into a washing machine and turn it on High but that is beside the point

What do you like about Sanji?
He has an incredible kindness and a strong moral code...I love his stupid laugh and big dumb grin and the fact that no matter how much he squabbles and bickers with the crew it is obvious that he cares deeply for every single one of them. He's achingly human.

FAQ

How does an invite only zine work?
An invite only zine works with the mods reaching the artist and writers with an invitation, instead of selecting them after they apply to work on the zine. We will be adding a suggestion box in the interest check for everyone to send artist they want to see participate as well as writers
Will there be ships allowed in this zine?
We would like to focus on the development of Sanji thru the series, his relationship with his crew and family, and the not so friends hes made along the way. Because of this there will be no romantic ships allowed in this zine.
Is this zine for profit or charity?
This zine is for profit, meaning that if sales break even, all contributors will get a free copy of the zine and merch items and will be paid for their work once the zine has reached its conclusion.
