Oh, I doubt it. Viz will stop publishing the series and refuse to sell the license well before you turn 80.
-
If they continue at their current pace it'll be ten years before the English release gets to where Japan is right now. Still holding out for this acceleration, but I don't have my hopes up. I kinda don't wanna be buying Vol. 50 when I'm almost 30.

Sell the license to who Tokyopop?
-
Random. . .
Its just that when I'm reading the Viz chapter, they replace responses like "Damn you" or "dammit" or "song of a bitch" are always, You Fiend. Its really, really irritating.
-
Don't forget "Scoundrel".
Pretty soon they'll be saying "Carpetbagger"ā¦ -
I find it amusing that Viz has no problem with ''crap'' (though they do use it sparingly), but balk at ''damn'', a lighter swear. Heck, in Vol. 19 they used crap in a situation where damn would've been appropriate. Really bizarre.

Okā¦Maybe the US version of the anime will catch up so both the manga and anime will hit skypia almsot at the same time..
Manga= CH 2??
Anime=Ep.61(as of 3.09) -
This shit's still at Alabasta?
I'm happy for the popularity of it, tough -
Well what else do they have that they could sell at the accelerated pace?
Perhaps someone could say something to a Viz rep at a convention? I'm guessing one person won't change Viz's release schedule, but isn't it possible the rep might mention if there were fans asking for this?
-
Mehā¦.they're throwing Naruto at me everytime I open the book...but I'm sure I'm the 79th person to say that so I'll leave it at that for now.
I'm glad that they are putting in an extra chapter or two in Jump, but the Volume releases......wow. I have no idea what they're planning for the series.
-
Someone apparently did ask a One Piece related question at Comic Con but only about the "fanbooks", I'm assuming they said data books and were just misquoted, and Viz said they had no plans to work on them at the moment.
-
I just got volume 20 and it appears to be edit-less from what I can see.
-
Oh, this thought just hit me. The next series to be accelerated would probably be Bleach. They just release three or so a month. US is at V. 25, V. 26 coming in March. They release all the way to 36/37 and release in the magazine like they plan to do with Naruto.
-

To bad Viz is now against teamwork, though. Uso-Cho Hammer Shooting Star was too "working-together-y" for the U.S.A. It was only Usopp's attack. That's the only thing that really bothered me.

Also, lets not forget the "Diggy-Diggy Fruit" retches uncontrollably Sorry, that does tend to happen whenever I say/type that. Oh, and "Mutt-Mutt" (damn you to hell 4kids)

Just got my SJ in the mail.
Wait for itā¦.
Wait for it....
....
! It has 5 chapters of One Piece.
Also, Keimi and Pappagu are Viz's romanizations of Camie and Pappug -
ā¦and they're not releasing Vol. 21 til June. The fuck Viz?
I should be happy, but not when the volume releases are apparently being stalled for no clear reason.
-
5 Chapters!? o.o
Maybe this is a sign of an impending acceleration?
-
It certainly sounds like it. Now that they can't really do that with Naruto anymore, maybe One Piece is next up on the block. That would be great if true.
-
If they continue to speed through the rest of Alabasta at this rate they'll be finished with it during the summer. Hopefully afterward they either skip ahead to Water 7 or something, or just go fully bimonthly. That would be great, because I would like to get the Skypiea and CP9 Sagas ASAP.

5 chapters. So Zoro vs Mr.1 was in this volume. Sweet.

This is EXACTLY what i've been hoping for. They've done how many speed-ups for Naruto now? There's like 4 volumes a month of that. I was even going to go so far as suggesting a petition to send to SJ America pleeding for them to take it out of the mag for a while untill they get to Water 7 in volume releases, just catch people up, and at least introduce non scanlation readers or fandub watchers to Franky more
-
Five chapters?
You get your magazine this early?! I usually get around the 22ndā¦
-
I don't foresee this 'speed up lasting'.
-
Damn, well looks like I know what I'll get from the newstandsā¦
-
Bleach gets the cover again. This whole situation is just getting more confusing since they don't seem to be mentioning the increase in chapters at all. There was the "Shonen Jump Accelerated" thing but they've been pretty vague about it.
-
Because it's not an event they care to advertize.
Bleach sells more than One Piece, anyhow.
-
Why does it? One Piece is just better though.

because american kids have terrible taste in shonen.

Well after the April and the release of Naruto Vol 44, as well as hulu.com and the special subbed episodes released on the internet. U.S. Naruto will basically be parallel to Naruto in Japan. Yes, Vol 45 will be released shortly, but it wont take long for US to release it. I give it 2 to 3 months, tops. So like a June or July release. One Viz is parallel with the series and show in Japan, theres nothing more they can do to speed up the series, and they'll have to concentrate on other series, i.e One Piece and/or Bleach.
I, personally, would like to see One Piece be sped up first, seeing as the manga was out before Naruto in the U.S., but is behind by 17 Volumes by this month. The series is slowly but surely regaining some recognition with the Austrailian releases of episodes, the less-edited manga in SJ Monthly, and the wonderful DVDs by Funimation. Soon, the memories of OP under 4kids will fade away like Zoro's memory of Kokoro being a mermaid.

@Joe:

And some One Piece fans just can't stand series like that or others being put over One Piece in anyway.

Its cause Naruto is the "Dragonball Z" of this current generation. Just like when I was a kid, if it wasnt Dragonball Z, fuck it. Thats what Naruto is today.
-
Well, I guess because One Piece doesn't have pairingsā¦
It's because 4kids messed One Piece up and Viz being the idiots they are decide to keep the 4kids terms.
Either way, how did Viz do with the five chapters of One Piece this issue? I need to know because I'm planning on sending them mail with concerns about the series.
-

I usually get it around the 22nd as well. Needless to say, getting it this early was pretty surprising.

I have no idea. I just flipped through to see how many chapters there were, that's it. Been too tired today to sit down and read it.
-

Kokoro was a mermaidā¦? :blink:
And did I read that right? 5 chapters this month? Whoo boy, it's about time. I might start buying the issues again if this keeps up.

Keimi and Pappagu? Eh, I prefer calling them Caimie and Pappagg, but I suppose their romanization works too. -
Here's a bit of news that occurred recently.
Diamond Distributors who are in charge of distributing Viz Media titles in Comic Book shops have de-listed over 1000 titles that they no longer plan to ship. Obviously the big manga titles have not been affected like Naruto, Bleach, and Death Note but titles like Prince of Tennis and Bastard have. These titles are still available elsewhere like book stores and online.

If you turn it into a petition or list of grievances I'll sign it.

total lameness,IMO:getlost:
I hope kinikuman isnt on the list sicne the CHEAPEST copy on amazon is almost 700-1K for vol.1( i assumed it was a joke on the site..hoped it changed)

Which is really ironic because naruto is so boring i can't see how it could hold any little kids interest outside of the first few arcs. After that its filler hell and i can't see how any kid, even one with no sense could sit through that shit before shippuden, which is basically just extended canon mixed with loads of filler.
I don't mind the kiddies liking something over one piece but at least pic a shonen that doesn't suck so much ass like naruto does.
Can't they like Hunter X Hunter instead or FMA?
-
(checks list) Well aside from Diamond really not being the best place to get manga (rather get them off Amazon, Diamond is mostly from comic distribution places and not bookstores), I really need to start hurrying and getting as much Flame of Recca as possibleā¦considering that I'm about to get Vol. 12 before 11, I say time is tight.
