Y'know… I've never noticed how "Hiruruku" resembled "chirurg" (German for "surgeon") before. I suppose that's intentional... :huh:

That's not really a dub, though… that's just really, really bad subtitling. :)

Considering we've never seen the official spelling for Hiruruk… maybe you just hit a jackpot there :blink: I mean, Oda used Italian for Usopp's mom's name (Banchina = dock), so he might as well use German for other people's name.
Doctor Chirurg? Hmm...

I know this is from the sub, and not a dub, but I can't help it:
Zoro -> Zobo
:lol:
And Sanji -> Steve :lol:

[snapback]3990[/snapback]They already aired around 140 episodes, so basically yes. Right now OP reairs in germany, showing all 140 episodes, in addition RTL2 (german TV broadcaster), will air 60 new episodes (basically the whole Skypia arc) after the rerun.
A few other changed names that came to my mind:
Kurahadol: Beauregard
Bon Clay: Bon CurryEdit:

_Well, come to think of it, there certainly are a few german names and references, at least imho :)
First of all Don Krieg
Krieg: War Another example: Blitzkrieg: Lightning-War
…... Hmm, come to think of it.
Marine equals Navy in german..... Maybe it wasnt a mistranslation at all.... Considering the Marine-Marines topic._
in Hk subtitles ..they call
Luffy : Low fei
Usopp : Wuu sok po
Nami : loi mei
Sanji : Saan Jii
Zoro : Churk Lok
Chopper : Chok Ba
Robin : Low bun
Arlong : Ah long
Hawk~eye Mihawk : Yang ahn Mai fok hak
Red Hair Shanks : Hung Faht Saht Ku C
Yasopp : Yea Sok po

I love Usopp as Pipo! It's so cute!
And Robin as Miss Bloody Sunday is rockin'!
I remember someone mentioning some butcherings of Crocodile: Clock Dial, Clark Dial, etc.

I really like the Greek names for the OP characters. I think they reflect their personalities well (I could definitely imagine Usopp as Gus and Zoro as Blackjack).
Kurahadol as Beauregard is a pretty good name change too (it sounds better than the rather awkward English one, Klahador I guess they called him?). As for bad sub names, my favorite is from someone who posted that they saw Mr. 1/Bones Daz titled as "Jazz Boner".

Actually, we have in One Piece: RED. It's Dr. Hiluluk.
[snapback]4832[/snapback]
I stand corrected.
Jazz Boner rocks.
Sanji is Sunkiss or Sunkist in some places.
And I've seen Robin as "Nicole" (from Nico?)
Pirate Age (Under Construction)
My personal favorites are the German names for Brogy and Dorry.
BOOGY AND WOOGY!
I thought Blackjack was a pretty cool name, too.

[snapback]4903[/snapback]Actually ^^ Thats how he is called in the german dub, too….. Imho it is a pretty awesome/funny name change ;)_
I believe the French name for Sanji is "Sandy" :lol:
Some of the ones mentioned on the first page are hilarious. Zoro = Blackjack?!? :lol:
And this may be just bad subbing, but Vivi = BB
(All others I could think of were mentioned already. Also, Oda mentioned some different names for the manga in an SBS..)
ps, SaiyaJedi :blink: wow, that's a nice observation! Considering the "Mowe" on Morgan's jaw….
I don't think that BB is a bad name, since it IS technically correct (the katakana reads "Bibi"); the same goes for the Greek names (Usopp IS Gus, baby!)
I just remembered that the Indonesian anime has Choppa instead of Chopper. It's still Chopper in the manga though.

Well it's not such a big deal because when a Japanese say Chopper it sounds like Choppa. ;)

I remember seeing somewhere Zoro is Blackjack or something. Heh
I forgot some other English changes.
Jango -> Django
Sham -> Siam
These are actually translations:
Ninjin -> Carrot
Pinman -> Pepper
Tamanegi -> Onion
I think I read somewhere Buggy go as Baggy the clown. I think it was in french but I'm not sure. It could have been a mistake.
Baggy the clown brings a funny image in my mind. :lol:
Yeah…
I think another name for him is Baki. I saw that name for him before.
i like the german names most of all dubs. basicly just because they're made of the western society so we don't break our tongue when speaking them :lol:
The best name change in a HK sub was one of two for our favorite Sanji
They are : Sunkist (WTF) or Haingis (er ok)
I think that I heard a long time ago that the french´s name of Usopp it´s Pipo xDDD
The worst OP Dub (and fansubs, lets not forget that they fuck up too.) were when I read the article on the OP Bootleg on SA and they said Usopp was called "Crock Bu" and Sanji was "Sunkist". I have also seen various fansites translate them wrong, including such horrors as:
Luffy=Lu Fei, Monkey D. Louie, Roofy, Lufiey, and even "Rubba" (WTF)
Zoro=Zorororo, Zowlow, and Zorlow
Usopp=Yusoap, Usoppou, You Sopp
Nami=Namu
Sanji=Sanshi, Senshi, Sungee
Choppa=Chopat, Chofur
Captain Kuro=The Black Captain, Captain Claw, and Seargent Kuro
Gin=Jin, Gene
Pearl=Pool, Pull, Paru (Which may or may not be Romajii but still.)
Nico Robin=Neko Lowbin, Rabin
Zoro…Blackjack? :blink: Hm...
Well, around here where I'm from - ps, I'm from the Philippines - One Piece has managed to land a timeslot in the afternoon anime primetime at one of our local channels.
It's dubbed in Filipino, and that's why I don't watch it and why I run back inside the house as fast as I can as soon as the other neighborhood kids turn on the tube to tune in. The dub is very bad.
And they didn't change too many names, but what they did change is infuriating because it may change a significant part of the series. Luffy's whole name is now Monkey "the" Luffy. THE Luffy! How are they gonna tie him to the legacy of those with the "D" intial?
Oh, and Usopp's name is now "Yusopp". and he sounds like he has a permanent cold.
yikes.
