      I was flipping throough the October issue of ASJ and was disapointed at a few things in One Piece. First, nakama has been translated as shipmate. It's gonna sound extremely weird seeing Luffy scream, "NAMI, YOU'RE MY SHIPMATE!!!!" It'd be better if they just kept it as friend.

      In chapter 76, Sanji and Zoro's conversation about little tools and Nami's breasts was completely altered. Now, Sanji gets pissed at Zoro for calling Nami a wicked woman. If Viz is avoiding any talk of breats in One Piece now, I'd hate to think what they'd do when Nami flashes everyone in Alabasta.

      Also, Viz made a whole big stink about the Naruto dub. The first 10 or so pages were just advertizements for the dub and Naruto merchandise. It really sickens me that Naruto gets all this praise and yet One Piece gets shit on.

      Viz also just showed Bellemere's death. The people who just watch and read the dub and ASJ must be going "wtf?!" by now. Imagine their surpise in the coming months.:laugh:

        Please don't bash other series. I'm not familiar with ASJ, but we probably had so much advertisements when One Piece first started. I don't know, I'm guessing.

        Besides, Naruto isn't all that bad. (I liked it in its earlier stage.) After all, Naruto's more popular than One Piece among American kids.

        That said… Translating nakama as shipmate is weird. But nakama is hard word to translate. "Friend" is not really a good translation, either. I remember discussing it with some Japanese-familiar people in this forum how to translate it. I think after that discussion, I changed my translation to comrade.

          I did too, but after the Chuunin Exams, I became less and less interested in it.

          That'd probably be the best way of translating nakama in One Piece.

            Anyways nakama can mean company, fellow, colleague, associate, comrade, mate, group, circle of friends or partner

            The ones that suit One Piece better are comrade, mate, circle of friends or partner

            Anyways the comrade one is correct

                I actually prefer shipmate to friend in certain places….
                Though I think thats because reading Yugioh vol.3 ruined the word for me for all time....

                But the tool thing......lame....now no cussing or sexual references...

                And yes, a LARGE portion of dubbies read ASJ, so the "Wtf?!"s should be wonderful.XD

                  They still might say "friend" in that that particular scene. They said friend in the dub.
                  At least they aren't making stupid edits to the manga. I just saw the part where Nami stabs Usopp in SJ. Nice to see it's not rubber. 👅

                    Well, did anyone really expect "nakama" to be the word used? I can see surprise at the choice of replacement (shipmate is bizarre, if you were going for that effect, 'crewman' perhaps…) but not at the fact it was replaced. It's not an english word, and doesn't really mean anything except to a part of the fandom which isn't buying ASJ to get their OP fix.

                    WRT the breast edit, I'd expect there's a lot more licence to fiddle with the dialogue than the art. (God, I am SO sick of this country's prudiness. Yes. It's a breast. Looking it will not permanently shatter your soul or turn you into a rapist.)

                    I desperately need to get these last few issues. 😛

                      i dont find all that wrong the use of shipmate, but then again i dont have to worry since the brazilian release has a great translation (despite Ruffy, Logue Town and another dumb mistakes)

                        It actually is Logue Town and not Rogue Town though..

                          Yep, jack is right. It is LogueTown. You can see the original spelling if you click here.

                            I recently got volumes 3, 4 and 5 of the OP manga (I love the Kuro arc) and was slightly disappointed to see Kuro's best attack still as out-of-the-bag attack, but it grew on me.

                                  Actually, when they used to have kanji definitions as a little extra ASJ had used Nakama. So it isnt a matter of them mistranslating it. Dunno which issue it was in…

                                    BTW, about Zoro not talking about Nami's breasts, if I recall correctly, what Zoro actually said was a term that Sanji mistook for meaning she had small breasts. I think it's more likely that the reason it was changed is because they couldn't find a good English equivelent for that exchange.

                                              I don't really think he was referring to the fact it was translated to begin with, but more talking about how he considered their translation a bad choice. If he wasn't, I agree with you, of course.

                                              If he was… Listen, the word has many different meanings. There'd be no sense whatsoever in Viz constantly translating the term with ''shipmate''. As any translator will do, they'll come up with different variations of the term to fit the context. Which is only natural.

                                              There's no need to get all pumped up just because this one time it was translated as ''shipmate''.

                                                ehhh, most american kids would think "comrade" was more russian than anything else. (No offensive to those that speak the language, but I played Red Alert and so did other people) Shipmate or crewmember sounds best if your not using friend. Or he just saying she was going to be his navigator…that might have worked too

                                                    Well, "family" is a paint-you-into-the-corner move. There are things you can do to a nakama or crewman you can't do with a family member.

                                                        Cripes, settle. Sometimes it's two or three or four. Depends on if they want to resolve cliffhangers of certain degrees.

                                                          It was 3 chapters (76-78).

                                                          I don't think he was that mad that they translated it, as much as what they translated it to. Nma.

                                                          Yep, that's what I meant. Shipmate sounds kind of strange, IMO. Friend or comrade would've been better.

As I've said before, converting it to Roguetown implies the city was named with a conscious knowledge it would be a pirate haven, somewhat unlikely. Loguetown doesn't so much. The meaning can still be there, but indirectly now– by way of the L-R similarity.

                                                                      The Enel-Ener thing got complex for me when I heard one had various allusions attached.

                                                                                          And when people point fingers at me about my spelling do you care? No. People were free to point at my errors yet no one else told the person to be quite, so just let me do it because people do that here and they get away with it.

It's a pretty decent translation, even if they are a bit lukewarm on the cussing. But that's not a big deal. 🙂 I let my sister read my copy of Romance Dawn last week and she loved it. Thought it was hilarious. xD

                                                                                                  ''Engel'' and ''Enel''… I've never seen the resemblance, but you have a point. Thing is, comparing Ener to an angel is like the oddest thing ever and I'd feel bad just doing it.

                                                                                                  Besides that, I just use Ener because it just looks and sounds way more appealing to me.

                                                                                                      Also, Viz made a whole big stink about the Naruto dub. The first 10 or so pages were just advertizements for the dub and Naruto merchandise. It really sickens me that Naruto gets all this praise and yet One Piece gets shit on.

                                                                                                      It was only 6 pages… and FYI, I did some counting...

                                                                                                      If you include the anime episode guide, card game, video game page, and of course the chapters itself in Shonen Jump, there was a total of 55 One Piece related pages in the current issue

                                                                                                      While Naruto, even with the anime info combined with the chapters in this months issue only had a total of 43 pages...

                                                                                                      One Piece's 55 pages > Naruto's 43 pages

                                                                                                      One Piece did NOT get shit on >.>

                                                                                                      I did my best to count the pages, sue me if I got one little detail wrong, this is what I assume

                                                                                                      btw, if you include both sides of the cover, then Naruto had 45 pages, but 55 is still higher than 45...

                                                                                                        Naruto did NOT hog up this issue as you make it sounds
