pros:
- You get to see your favorite cast of characters indulge in slice of life tropes such as wearing cat ears, wearing maid outfits, and shipping.
- Episodes are very quick so there's no real time commitment.

cons:
- I just finished watching all three episodes and already forgot what even happens lmfao.
- Lacks substance/meaning beyond the superficial. Doesn't really add to the show.

neutral:
- The chronological order in which you would watch these episodes for it to make sense within the events of season one could make you wonder why character x and y are interacting in the way that they portrayed. For that reason some episodes feel ... more like flashbacks and some feel like the present, as of the ending to season one. Would be nice if the Director intentionally portrayed flashbacks as what they are instead of just treating them all the same considering that these all came out after the end of the first season.

Pros:
-You can see side stories that involve your favorite swirly-eyebrow cook from One Piece.
-If you happen to enjoy both Food Wars and One Piece, then you'll probably appreciate that this exists.
-It is a relatively quick read. No long time investment needed.
-Chapters 1 & 6 imo are peak and are worth reading through. Chapter 6 did an excellent job at giving this mini-series a satisfying conclusion.
-If you're a Sanji enthusiast.

Cons:
-If you're not a fan of the notorious filler arcs that the One Piece anime has or aren't involved enough to enjoy the One Piece movies, then you'll probably also find this series to be a ... waste of time.
-Chapters 2-5 are meh and you may very well not care so much for it.
-If you're a Zoro supremacist.

pros:
-Absolutely excellent opening and closing songs: "Inferno" by Mrs. Green Apple and "Veil" by Keina Suda.
-There is a main female character that isn't just written off as fan service or severely lackluster. Muscle Witch concept goes hard.

cons:
-Everything feels more or less generic in an unimaginative manner.
-Dialogue often reads as unnatural or dumbed-down.
-Character development is almost non-existent. The show went as far as sacrificing a character's development in order to just maintain them as the designated fan service.
-Humor is spliced in a manner so poor that it actually detracts from any tension the show tries to build up.
-The magic system in this fantasy tries to ... be rooted in science, but ends up stretching itself too thin.

neutral:
-If you are a fan of generic Shonen, then you'll probably find no fault in this show.
-The fight scenes are okay enough to pass some time.
