This is more than your opinion, it's a hard fact.
New official Viz media topic V2.
-
-
there are a few things that i'm wondering if viz will edit/change/ censor. 3 of the big one's for me are :
law giving the middle finger to captain kidd in chapter 500 (volume 51)
brook asking to see womens panties.
& the way spandam kinda slaps robin around during enies lobby.
-
Odds are that they will do something to Law's middle finger, since that seems to be their favorite edit, but I really doubt they're going to change Spandam's treatment of Robin (which would require extensive artwork editing), or Brook asking to see women's underwear. If they're going to keep the perversion of Mr. 2 and Nami flashing everyone and the resulting nosebleeds from the male crew members, they'll certainly keep Brook's perversion.
-
Brook's is the most unlikely thing to edit out really of those three.
-
Considering the fact that Viz has never edited violence or done such extensive editing as would be required to remove Spandam's treatment of Robin, I'd say that's the least likely to happen…because there is no chance of that happening.
-
well i know that it's not likely to happen (nor do i want it to) but i'm sure that there will be people who when they see that they'll think & say "oh viz supports men smacking women around" type bullshit, so that's the only reason i put that 1 on my list, but now that u ( others) mentioned it, i suppose that way too much heavy & extensive editing would have to be done.
-
I think that kinda thinking is paranoid to be honest. Spandam got his backlash 1000 fold.
-
oh i know he did, i've read & watched enies lobby the whole way through several times.
-
Law raising his clenched fist at Kid will be quite funny~
-
I don't think Law's finger would be edited in the manga. After all, Viz kept the finger in tact for other series, so it should stay.
-
And I think this is the first time that Buggy has actually said flashy in the Viz translation. Oh yeah, the ''Where's my riot?'' line made me chuckle too.
He says "Die Flashily" in one of the early SBS's, I think it was in volume 2 or 3. The scanlation on One Manga has something else though so I don't know if Viz's translation is right or not, though I like Viz's better.
-
If Viz's speedlation (as I like to call it) is going to work, chances are they'll keep in content like perversion, swearing or abuse since the time it would take to edit said images may make release dates drag on. Besides, of all the volumes I've read I haven't seen any mishaps at all apart from the whole Zolo thing but thats just me.

Swearing to? I sure would like that but I really doubt it. Thats the one thing that doesn't seem to get by in Viz One Piece. Older volumes used to say "damn" didn't they? Not any more thats for sure.
-
There're still some craps sprinkled around here and there. Mostly from Sanji but there are a few other examples like that completely arbitrary one from Vol. 20.

Which one is that?
-
During the scene where the fake Alabasta soldiers are burning Nanohana some random guy who's trying to put out the fire comes up with the absolutely scathing insult of ''That crap-king!'', completely out of nowhere. And it really doesn't fit, since Sanji's the only one who does that, and we expect him to anyway since that's his quirk, to be foul-mouthed in that silly manner.
-
1 personal gripe that i have is about them saying transponder snail instead of keeping it as den den mushi, but that's just me, i like den den mushi better.
-
That's pretty much what it translates too, though.
-
i know, i just like den den mushi better.
-
I don't give a shit.
-
@dirt:
I don't give a shit.
Same here it's not a big deal. I like transponder snail better anyway. I mean, isn't that the translation of it?
And back to my "Franky Hentai!" question. I think he will say this in the Viz translation;
"Franky TransPORN!"
…..no he won't that sucks.
-
And back to my "Franky Hentai!" question. I think he will say this in the Viz translation;
I think they'll just go with "Franky Transform", or something like that.
-
I think they'll just go with "Franky Transform", or something like that.
And just throw away the pun? I guess whatever works, ya know?
-
@ dirt monkey AL, i don't fuckin give a shit either, but don't fuckin cuss me motherfucker cuz i am the wrong fuckin 1 for that goddamn shit ! you don't like den den mushi, i do, fuckin deal with it bitch but don't goddamn cuss me fucker !
-
Best New Member award anyone?
-
@Kairouseki:
Best New Member award anyone?
is that supposed to be directed at me ??
-
And just throw away the pun? I guess whatever works, ya know?
Hey, they threw away the Sogeking pun… doing that wouldn't rly surprise me.
-
is that supposed to be directed at me ??
No I think he's being sarcastic to Drahn.
Don't worry, Drahn. She grows on you.@Shinigami - That's true. Despite them throwing out the pun, Sniperking is accurate, correct?
EDIT: Baroque Works Saga update today. (If anyone cares.)
-
Nothing gets the blood boiling like a transponder snail!
-
so when does the skypiea/jaya stuff start? next year?
i wanted to get a volume for christmas.
-
Starting January.
-
No I think he's being sarcastic to Drahn.
Don't worry, Drahn. She grows on you.I'm not… exactly sure who you're referring to. Two different people?
Edit: He is me and she is AL, okay.
-
@ dirt monkey AL, i don't fuckin give a shit either, but don't fuckin cuss me motherfucker cuz i am the wrong fuckin 1 for that goddamn shit ! you don't like den den mushi, i do, fuckin deal with it bitch but don't goddamn cuss me fucker !
-
I don't see the point of not translating stuff if it can be easy to translate. Though looking at Viz's streak right now I'm surprised they did translate it.
-
I wouldn't be surprised to see a few more "Damn"s or "Hell"s slip through in the volumes…I dunno if you all read the SJ magazine everymothn, but their standards are loosening on cursing just a little...last month in Tegami Bachi there was I think "Damn" or something...also "bastard" was used once or twice in YuYu Hakusho...in fact it might've been "Bastard" that was used in Tegami Bachi...anyway, point is, they're loosening those editing standards. They did leave Yusuke's ancestor who is pretty much naked unedited....that would've been a pretty difficult panel to edit because of how it was drawn...and you see nothing. I'm assuming there's no negative backlash because honestly, no one would complain if the magazine were unedited entirely due to the T (13+) rating on the magazine...considering what PG-13 movies get away with nowadays, Parents wouldn't give a crap about any of the minor cursing / suggestive drawings you'll find in a SHONEN manga...if they complain about younger kids all Viz has to say is, the rating on the magazine says "T"...if younger people buy the magazine, it's the parent's fault.
-
vol23's pages seem the same as all the other volumes, the cover though is much thinner than earlier volumes, hopefully this won't continue with future vols, especially when we're paying more
-
And just throw away the pun? I guess whatever works, ya know?
Maybe they'll add the joke, but include an ed note, in case the reader doesn't get it. After all the hentai joke shows up a lot so…

That's true… that little asterisk never fails to inform!

When read in a jazz-y voice, it sounds pretty profound.

I'll 1 up ya, Zach… do it as Farnsworth

hey, drahn
I still don't give a shit.
-
He's the wrong 1.
-
oh, sorry, drahn
hey, drahn31
I still don't give a shit.
-
Oh boy… So how 'bout that speed up next month?
-
Ok guys let's chill out with drahn31 he's a new member and he didn't do anything wrong.
On Topic: I'm SUPERRR excited for the speed up!
-
Didn't see anyone post this but we have our first images of the speed up volumes and the sticker.
http://twitpic.com/s0hqcIf you ask me it looks weird when they change to having arc names in the volumes.
-
Looks nice! Can't wait to get them. I wish the stickers would just be the characters instead of bounty posters, though.
-
Aw, I was hoping that the stickers would be something more along the lines of the calendar artwork, or full-body artwork or something, rather than the edited posters on Viz's site. Wonder if this means that those volumes with the stickers will have weird packaging.
I notice it has the current three-hundred million bounty though.

WAH! Whoever owns those is a lucky duck! And where's Volume 24? Is it attatched to the sticker? I was kind of hoping the stickers would resemble the Ichigo sticker I got in Volume 19 and the Sakuragi sticker I got in Slam Dunk Volume 1…Those stickers were sick. But still, this is pretty cool as well.
-
i'm super excited for the speed up too & am gonna buy all of the volumes. also, who thinks that viz actually has all of the volumes up to 53 which is where this thing is gonna end, completely 100% translated done & finished ? i for 1 do. also , does anyone know how soon after the speed up they (viz) are gonna release volume 54 ? i ask this cuz here http://onepiece.viz.com/calendar/ volume 54 is listed as 1 of the volumes that contains some of these stickers, so i'm wondering how soon after the speed up volume 54 will be released & if anyone knows. now for my last question. does anyone know in the newest shonen jump (january issue) why they skipped over the first 2 chapters of volume 54 ?
