Like the chapter and the overall art, if I want to nitpick the only bad part is the faces they look too chubby
But I wonder why they changed the original story :
In the wiki the original story of Mask and Ace from Ace novel :
"In his formative years, Deuce was a medical student with bad grades, and his parents were indifferent to him. Because of the literature he read, he fell in love with the idea of simply adventuring on the sea. The day he set out to sea, he abandoned his birth name, but his voyage resulted in him getting stranded on the island of
Sixis. After spending three days there, he encountered the pirate
Portgas D. Ace, who was also shipwrecked there. The two initially got along well, and when Deuce revealed his lack of a name, Ace gave him the pseudonym of Masked Deuce. Ace wanted the two of them to build a raft to escape together, but when the two started talking about each other's families, Deuce came to realize that Ace was
Gol D. Roger's son and departed from Ace with very mixed feelings. Several days later, Deuce had not been able to find food or water on the island, and when he saw Ace with a fruit, he decided to kill Ace for it. However, Ace noticed Deuce when his stomach growled, and offered him the fruit. Ashamed of his earlier intentions, Deuce refused, but the two ended up sharing the fruit, which was the
Mera Mera no Mi. However, since Ace consumed it first, Deuce did not receive the fruit's powers when he ate it. The two worked together to build a raft that ran on Ace's flames, which they called the
Striker, and they set off to sea as official partners, forming the
Spade Pirates. Deuce decided to write a novel about his experiences on the crew."
Here Deuce didn't guess Ace father, and didn't try to kill him.
My second complaint and I think this is only me lol, everyone has cool art style etc but Thatch was barely drawn... I wanted a cool Thatch !
