If you want to play the I-didn't-know-this-was-a-hippo-bar game with me, that's fine.

attack name translations are hit or miss tbh. like I prefer solar flare to taiyo-ken in dbz, but who in their right mind translates kaioken to king kai fist?

Worst missed opportunity in all of anime, because he's not just any Kai. He's the Kai from North Galaxy.


..

It's the Fist of the North Kai.

And Luffy is Krillin. The guy who plays Franky is also a pretty well known actor in Japan (though I mostly recognize him as Ninjaman from Kakuranger and Doctor Z from Akibaranger).

Yep! Kazuki Yao is the voice of Franky and he did a few Super Sentai roles. Oda wrote the role of Franky with him in mind because of how much he loved his voice performance as Mr. 2 Bon Clay and Jango.

comrade is the objectively correct translation for nakama in one piece because of the canon work One Class

Jul 26, 2007


It's also objectively correct 'cause it... actually means the same thing.

Comrade: "a companion who shares one's activities or is a fellow member of an organization."
Nakama: "a companion, a peer"

Like, it's the same drat thing. It's a powerful word in One Piece not because it's a special word, but because it's a super thematically relevant concept- people being brought together by going on the same journey/being part of the same group. That's what "comrade" means!

We could use the French "ami", which is very similar to umi (means sea), or Russian based "droogs".

Imu's big hat is powerful enough to make the whole world his matey.

I must say, while I'm overall very happy that I happened to time reading through One Piece so that I caught up right when Reverie was wrapping up, the feeling of "oh no now I have to wait" coupled with Imu and the Big Hat has hit me pretty hard.

Since we're not actually seeing the rest of Reverie I have a bad feeling that the Strawhats are gonna come out of the other end of Wano to some really bad news.

D: Oda-sensei, hello. In regards to Sanji, I feel that he looks like Leonardo DiCaprio-san from the western movie, "Romeo and Juliet". My friends say I'm dead wrong. Is Sanji's appearance based on someone in particular?? P.N. Noel

O: People used to guess DiCaprio a lot, in the past. But the truth is that Sanji has a much more unusual model. I might not go as far as to say "model", but I hoped to have a bit of this person's vibes come through. It's Steve Buscemi, as he appeared in the movie "Reservoir Dogs". Cool, huh? Someone at Bandai was the only one to guess correctly, a while back.

So, how the hell has no one asked where the hell Chopper and Brooke has gone to yet? I guess Brooke can run on water or whatever but Chopper didn't seem to get off the Sunny as far as I can tell and he can't swim.
