How did viz manage to mess up the name of Oven's attack?
Can they not even say 'hell' now?

Why exactly did Viz follow 4kids' naming conventions?
I dont see why they would be forced to.

I mean they don't follow Funimations naming conventions.

Good points, well made.

It seems that the One Piece manga is in need of a ground up re-edit from the start.

But with 80 volumes plus that is hardly viable from a business perspective I guess.
Tis a shame.

Viz's translation of One Piece isn't 'unforgivable' that is absurd hyperbole.
Its just seems to be a bit of a mess. Especially the more you look into it.

Even if you ignore the big reoccurring mistakes like 'Zolo' and 'Teech', there seem to be a ton of others that are just bizarre like calling Chopper's moves 'boosts' instead of 'points'.
Where they got the word 'boost' from I don't know. Its literally written ポイント(pointo)

While I can forgive random scanlators on the internet for making mistakes, I feel Viz should be held to a higher standard with their translation, they are selling it after all.

But its not exactly the end of the world. Just a bit disappointing.

I just find it odd the they went with 'gliff' over 'glyph'.
Really odd. I wonder what the translator was thinking.

I don't think I have ever seen any fans ever refer to it as a 'ponegliff'.
Even if it sounds the same it just looks wrong.

So I looked at the latest chapter and saw Viz had written 'poneglyph' as 'ponegliff'.
Is this right? It doesn't seem right. I am not familiar with Viz's translations but I don't think I have ever seen it Romanised like that before.

Surely the English word 'glyph' was intended.

If they had bothered to adapt and expand the various cover stories into filler arcs. They would be much better off in regards to being so close to the manga.

Only downside to this chapter is we got a ton of main course but no Pudding.

@KageKageKing:

What is the deal with all those DF(?) powers?!

The book one seems the most interesting. (bukku bukku no mi?)
You are able to put people inside some sort of fantasy novel world.
Or is it an illusion?

Smoothie's power is just disgusting. Wringing the water(juice?) out of people and then drinking it.

A moment of silence for King Baum.

He died (horribly) for our sins.
