The only thing 4kids did right with their dub of the 'Piece was the VA for Zoro/Zolo/whatever. That dude kicked rear end, was sad to see him go.

Also the censorship, while completely terrible, did create a special sort of surreal alternate One Piece world :v:

Okama are all just party people (and have flagrantly gay stereotype voices).

They translated Okama Way as Oh Come My Way and it was generally just being fab, I think.

Oh come my way was Viz's translation, they didn't sing that song in the 4kids version.

This is still standard even in FUNi's dub, I think. I'm curious if they'll walk it back when they get to Iva or if they'll go all in. I think there, at least, they have a brief chance to actually explain what the word means where as with Bon Clay there was never a chance.

Also I just realized this is the One Punch Man thread and I didn't accidentally start following the One Piece thread again.

I'm so sorry. I made reference to Zolo as an example of Viz's wonderful localization efforts, as Viz picked up the OPM anime for localization. Granted, they've done a great job with the manga, so I would hope the anime will do just fine.

I think Zolo was the Japanese licensor's decision, because they didn't want to step on Zorro's toes.

I've heard this too, and it's made even weirder by the fact that Zorro is public domain!

I think the truth of it is that they didn't want any confusion.

Nah, they're just idiots. Zorro is just a mildly popular character that kids parents would know, and outside the name there is very little, if anything, to cause confusion. Maybe his bandanna.

If anything it's someone looking at the r and figuring that the Japanese must have meant l. Because...reasons.
