The one Piece manga started being released on February by Panini Comics here in Mexico with a volume per month, right now there are 5 volumes released with the sixth one expected by the end of July it has been a success being the second best selling manga after Dragon Ball(my extimates watching stores stock and post online)
These are the volumes released so far(not my photo)
That's really good news. I just hope they don't mess up the translation and give us a proper latin spanish translation and not the gachupín version.

Until now I havent seen any huge error and is so good that panini keep the original names of the attacks with translation notes
Does Zoro get referred to as Zolo in this translation?
Does Zoro get referred to as Zolo in this translation?
His name is Zoro, the translation follows the original japanese very closely
Then this Spanish version is better than the English version by default because of that simple correction 
Is it called Juan Piece?

I'm glad OnePiece can reach more readers and more success possible.
Loads of success, but not enough to spawn an USA movie

Is Mexico the only market of Latin America that One Piece is covering at the moment?

Wow, dude, that was a joke. So sorry.

Here in Brazil it started being published in 2002 (if I'm not mistaken) by Conrad. After a few years they cancelled and some time after Panini took over and started from where Conrad had droped it, aswell as from the begining again, in a new format. But I stoped buying them somewhere in the Conrad era... 2007 I guess. By then I was already reading chapters on the internet.

Is also the first time one piece is available for the mexican market since 2004
Wow man!!! That's really good news. I'm in Colombia. I wonder if it's possible to get it here. I'd buy it for sure.

You can ask them directly on twitter and facebook, they are panini comics mexico in both

Not to pick on you personally or anything, but you guys should generally support the release in your home country.(as long as the translation isn´t crap as it certainly can be)
Otherwise it may not be continued to be published and the stigma of having "chapters on the internet leads to less sales" will stay.
I personally ain´t buying the volumnes the day they´re rerleased like i was in the beginning (pre-internet) anymore, but after a couple new volumnes are out iam certain to get them.
Facepalming over some "bad" translations and re-reading previous arcs and SBS, where i might have missed some perverted jokes.
Also my shelf looks damn awesome with each new volumne 
On another note:
Are there some volumnes out with different covers in certain countries ?
Like not using the japanese original, but using alternate covers. (even when i highly doubt that)

When I stoped buying I really coundn't afford it anymore. But that was 8 years ago, and my situation definetely changed since then. I could buy them now…. I kind of got used to reading it on the internet (and in english) but I guess I could go back to buying the brazilian releases. Like you said, just to be suportive.
As for the covers here, back when it was released by Conrad, the original volumes were split in two. So the odd volumes had the original covers, while the even volumes had different ones. They usually used those out of context colored images from the Color Walk books, like Luffy in a baseball outfit or whatever. The Panini releases are not split in two, so they just use the original covers on all of the volumes.
Is also out in Brazil, dont know about other countries
It's been published here since 2012 by Panini.
I find it weird that Panini is only publishing one volume per month in Mexico, here we had the odd three volumes in two months (two of them were old ones and the third was a new one) but it made sense since it was a way to try to catch up with Japan, also a way to attract people that used to read Conrad's volumes.

Oh man i cant stop laughing even with this old and bad joke

i could never understand this about Viz, even Oda showed us the proper romanization so whay they keep using "Zolo"?
but great news, i might as well buy some when they reach Skypeia ( if the shiping isnt too expensive)
So that's big news or something? One Piece is being published in Poland for qutie some time (few years I think?). I don't buy it cause I hate mangas in my language but it's cool I guess. I buy it in english or japanese if I have the chance.

That's pretty funny actually.

Mexico has a lot of people, and could be seen as a publishing gateway to the rest of the Spanish speaking Americas.
The other countries that speak Polish such as ___ and ___ surely made the publishing in Poland a truly comparable event of similar magnitude.
Does it come with the inside cover? SBS and UGP? Cause in Germany it's just a plain paperback (and the first 50 volumes didn't even have the original color scheme, just stupid marine blue…)

Thanks for the enlightment wise one.
not trying to hijack your thread but this makes me want to know how many countries actually have the license for one piece and how far has these contries go in terms of available volumes.
im from indonesia and i believe the latest official translation volume here is volume 73.
Not really related to the topic,just out of curiosity.. as most latin american countries speak spanish, this mexican translation could be used for the other countries (argentina, paraguay, venezuela, chile) or each one has drastic variations even in the same idiom?
Mexican translation would work.

One Piece manga is being published in Argentina by Larp Editores (the last volume is #25).
Regarding translations, here in Argentina (and also in Uruguay and Paraguay) we use "vos" instead of "tú" as the second-person familiar pronoun in every day speech (and, of course, "vos" conjugation is different). It's called "rioplatense spanish" and we never use "tú".
Both Larp and Ivrea (another argentine publisher) use "rioplatense spanish" for their translations, but we are so used to watch tv shows, movies, cartoons, anime, etc dubbed in neutral spanish (where "tú" is used) that some people find really distasteful that Luffy speaks in the "vos" form and prefer a more neutral spanish translation, so they don't buy the volumes. Honestly, I hate that people.

Maybe but the reading is so much easier than english, the spanish is very eloquent in the way to say and write words, there is no way you dont know how to say or write something after you read or hear it

In Finland we have 74 volumes so far and it's translated straight from Japanese so translation is really good. We also had re-print from the beginning when we were in volume 45. It's also most popular manga and best selled after Dragonball, might be even more popular now since it was few years ago with this situation.
10 volumes in and Im loving having my little one piece manga collection, a new volume is released monthly so there is still a LONG way to go
I knew there ought to be more argentinian users here, but in five years I never stumbled upon one! :excited:
In Argentina OP is up to volume 27, however, the spanish is not very neutral, uses tons of colloquial slang, which can be difficult to understand for other spanish speakers. Same for other LARP mangas and the older works of Ivrea.
Even if there are tons of countries that speak spanish here in latin america, it´s always different depending of the specific country, for example, Chilean can be very hard to understand for Argentinians (and maybe others), due to the huge differences in colloquial slang.
Whenever a show is dubbed for latin america, the dub is made in either Mexico or Venezuela. So, personally, I suggest to anyone who wants to learn spanish, go for the Mexican Spanish.
Por ahí había unhilo para hablantes del español aquí en AP. Yo soy de colombia, y me encantaría comprar esos tomos. Pero averigué y no los venden aquí.
Congratulations! I hope it goes well.
Here in Sweden the translations stopped around the end of Fishman Island, so I have pre-time skip volumes in Swedish and post in english. It's not a major loss though, the quality wasn't the best and a lot of names were changed. Not to mention the volumes were all navy colored and they skipped Oda's forewords. Altough it did have a certain charm.
I wish they could try and release more manga again, its like we had a few years where it was the new trend, and then it died out…
Well back when I lived in Puerto Rico you had to buy it online and have it shipped to you but only in English. I really never saw or heard from anyone that knew of a place that sold Spanish translated One Piece manga in a store. Don't know about now since I've been gone for 4 years and a half
Here in Argentina we have a couple stores that sell Spain spanish volumes, but I dont like them because they translate EVERYTHING, even names.
For example, Baron Tamago´s name is "huevo dandy" (dandy egg). I think I screeched when I first read it at the store because the salesman looked at me weird.
For those who don´t like the spanish translations, and ´don´t wanna spend much in shipping fees, you can purchase the english volumes at bookdepository. I bought from there many times already. They arrive within a fortnight (sometimes more but the longest it ever took them to arrive to me was a bit more than two months)
just read in the wiki that kokoro is translated into corazon by the castilians, wonder if theyll change rosinante's codename
changing his codename would ruin the whole theme of the executive officers. they`ll have to have two characters with the name of Corazón
They could call him Copas or something.
Do they say Copas in spanish?

Yes, Copas in Spaniard deck and Picas in French deck. But the design chosen by Oda is French.
The spanish deck, which is used for card games like Truco, has Copa, Oro, Basto and Espada (goblet, gold, club and sword respectively). The french deck is the one the executive officers are called after.
Kinda surprised Oda went with the french deck for a spanish themed group, but it´s easier to use the motifs on their designs I guess
There is not a problem with the translations since so far the names and attacks have been the original ones, it also has schichibukai and nakama in its vocabulary
Which version are you talking about? Mexican, argentinian or spanish?
I haven´t read the spanish one in detail, just by seeing the names translated I put it back on their shelves. I have the first 23 volumes in argentinian, and I´m steadily purchasing the rest in english. (so far about 30-40 vol, which I bought at random order depending which was my priority at the moment)

Mexican, they have been very loyal to the original japanese
I daydream about the day we can finally buy the complete series. nicely edited, translated and perhaps even supplemented with quality notes and references. Anyway, I'm enjoying the trip as much as anyone.
Also, any other catalan speaker around? I'm asking just to check whether it's just me the only one hating Luffy being romanized as Ruffy.
Lastly, american spanish (with all its dialects) and spain's spanish (did I really wrote that?!) are not IMHO interchangeable at all despite they're obviously very similar ocerall. I much prefer reading english translations due to quality (hi, mangapanda!) issues, though. However, reading dressrosa being a spanish native speaker has been quite fun and interesting. Translating japanese to western languages is hard as fuck, that's for sure.
