        What's the matter with all those SBS-hosts? Is there a special besides Tanaka's interview?

        Thanks for the pictures!

          Oda invited readers to ask questions to the dubbing crew of the original anime version. (he gave the adress of the Toei animation studio)
          He didn't promise it could be done but here it is, Takana (Luffy's voice) is the first to answer the fans !

            Okay, while very shittily drawn, the Arlong-dressed-as-Sogeking art makes me lole.

              What's that in the SBS about the 11 Supernova lined up with text next to them?

                reads
                It's just Oda listing the real-life inspirations for [the names of] the Supernovas, as Greg mentioned.

                Nothing new or interesting that we don't already know, but at least it's better than the what's-the-thing-in-my-kitchen-using-soru question.

                  I'm actually interested about the bit concerning Urouge, since I don't know what inspired his name yet.

                    rereads

                    It says that Uroge (pronounced "Uroji"- something I didn't know until now) was the 16th century Arab pirate, Barbarossa.
                    (why is the word kyoudai in there? who is a brother to whom?

                    My own question is, where did the romanji Urouge/Uroge come from? Were the translators using Aruj as a basis?

                      Woah my bad. I thought everyone already researched the names to death here. Is there anybody else anyone was interested in?

                      No matter where you go, there you are.

                        I suppose I am interested. I never really looked into their names.

                          Yeah, some names I knew (names like Kid or Hawkins or Capone were just blatantly obvious), but others, like Urouge or Apoo were more obscure. And I don't remember what was done at Trafalgar Square. So it'd be nice to see Oda confirming his inspirations.

                            Oda wrote their name in romanji when first introducing them in manga.

                                        Not sure in terms of weekly debuts, though this is one of, if not the biggest openings. But yeah, v.26/27 are still the highest selling first edition volumes to date (2.63m copies)

                                        Though total sales data for (v. 49-51) is still pending, so that might change.

                                          Not sure in terms of weekly debuts, though this is one of, if not the biggest openings. But yeah, v.26/27 are still the highest selling first edition volumes to date (2.63m copies).

                                          This was one of the more interesting volumes, so I can see it taking the record. Though who knows, what seems popular to me might not be so for the rest of the world.

                                              Oda wrote their name in romanji when first introducing them in manga.

                                              ah right… I actually haven't seen a raw yet. Guess I should pick up 51 and 52 ASAP. thanks.

                                              it's still weird though O_O

                                                Just another million copy debut for One Piece:

                                                BWAHAHAHA

                                                It's funny how Naruto doesn't even make the top 10;)

                                                  Um, Naruto's volume came out the beginning of November so of course it wouldn't be there anymore. But still…you hear the hype regarding some of the other stuff coming out this month (Bleach's "Turn Back the Pendulum" arc, the Yoshiwara arc in Gintama...um, D.Gray just being popular) and watching OP crushing everything still...it's just funny now.

                                                  Y'know, Negima WAS awesome…

                                                  For the first 18 volumes.

                                                    Though total sales data for (v. 49-51) is still pending, so that might change.

                                                    We'll compare notes again after the first edition figures are released.

                                                          Sometimes Oda changes the cover image under the jacket slightly to add a Pandaman cameo (like with that BW cover where Croc is Pandaman). On even rarer occasions Oda does a completly different cover under the jacket, this volume is one of those extra rare occasions.

                                                                              Is there any way to download all the Volume's SBS and "Usopp Pirates Gallery"?

                                                                              1 Reply Last reply Reply Quote 0

                                                                                      the volume's out march 4th
                                                                                      so shouldn't we have a picture of the cover in 1-2 weeks?
