I'm just going to put in my two-cents about Lin and Ishbaal. Personally, I thought Lin's name is spelled "Lin" in English. The contradiction (when he's in custody of the Amestrian government, the guy who made his ID bracelet spelled it "Ling Yao"), I think, was an error in the character's part...

Re: GEAR 4 This wouldn't be Gear 4, but anyone notice how Luffy keeps imitating his crew members (so far, there's Zoro, Sanji, and Chopper, I think) It's probably just intended as a joke, but I wonder if Luffy can change his face 'cause it's rubber and whatnot...

Re: One Piece 435 Discussion Oh my god.... My stomach hurts from laughing at Sanji's picture........... Ah man, that totally made my day! XD Sanji's slowly but surely becoming my favorite character~ Cravenight, good idea 'bout the Ramen guy supplying the picture! That would make it even...

Re: One Piece 434 Discussion =/ You guys never heard of a person who can knock you out with just his or her presence? They have that all the time in comics and whatever. But yeah, I definitely don't think Shanks ever ate a Devil Fruit. It kinda takes away from his 'badassness', y'know what I...

Re: One Piece 434 Discussion I think the main reason why Shanks does not want Ace to fight Blackbeard is because he's worried that Ace'll die. (Shanks did say that Ace is really strong, but when he fought Blackbeard, Shanks was "fighting seriously") I mean, Shanks seems to care for the two...

Re: One Piece 434 Discussion =/ I thought that might be the case. That sucks. Yes the Nazis did do horrible things and did use the Swastika as their symbol, but the Swastika has been around for thousands of years in Buddhism and whatnot, right? And Naruto had the Swastika too; I didn't hear...

Re: One Piece 434 Discussion Did anyone notice that Oda-sensei changed the design of Whitebeard symbol? Back in the previous chapters (around 157 or so), there was a swatiska in the background. Now, it's just a crossbone. Anyone know why he changed it? (Like,were there arguments about the...

Well, I think that's difficult for several reasons: 1. The Japanese language is structured differently than the English/other romantic languages. If translators tried to just leave the translations word-for-word, it'll sound really awkward. 2. Lots of jokes, while they make sense to a...

Actually, the Naruto and Eyeshield21 english volumes are about the same (9-10-ish), probably because Naruto is in the english version of Shonen Jump (which is monthly, and each volume has about two, sometimes three chapters released at a time). Eyeshield21 is what VIZ calls "Shonen Jump...

O_o VIZ's translations are that far already? Anyways, I own 8 volumes of the manga so far, and I plan on continuing to buy them, since I really like Eyeshield 21, and it's just nice to have a tangible version of the series. Some things are changed; for example, Hiruma does not say "fucking"...
