Whitebeard in color looks glorious.

Holy shit that logo

SBSSSSSSSSS

Anyone know when we'll get the other seiyuu answer sections? The first two were hilarious.

Dat cover, etc etc

>>4420
Are you talking about the "Jump Comics" logo? How long have they been using that, and are they using it because One Piece is really popular?

>>4447

This is the first time ONE PIECE has ever been multiple colors before on the volume cover.

AND IT'S ON FUCKING FIRE.

>>4447
Pretty sure Jump has used that little Pirate logo thingy FOREVER. It's even used a lot in the JUMP STARS DS games.

They tried doing a similar mascot in the US version, but decided to stop about a year in.

then I guess I will post the new stuff.

the many underpants of Hannybal

probably some kind of "guess that hat" thing.

I dunno.

marine questions it seems, also Boa is there.

I'm hoping that one of those questions is "Where did Bon-Chan get Magellan clothes during the escape?"

more Hannybal, Oars, luffy's handjob is brought up.

7 was just a little pandma segue, nothing important.

spoilered because it has Sanji's left eye on this page.

viewer beware, you're in for a scare.

some kind of zoro-related question, and Ivankov is brought up.

Man, I dropped the ball bringing pictures. I even knew they've been up for awhile, too.

I have brought some translations in the hopes that these will redeem me.

SBS Page 1

Pretty awesome. Oda collected all the dumbass questions/comments and collected them here. Just when I thought we were off to a miserable SBS for an awesome volume he says at the bottom that he's given up on this page and the real SBS will start on the next SBS page



SBS Page 2

Reader comments how they wish they could be like Luffy ad eat and eat but never get fat. Oda says for someone that moves around as much as Luffy does it'd actually be hard for him to even get fat.


Someone asks why Oda doesn't use 'kill' or 'crush' and only 'take down' wen the Strawhats talk about an enemy and they ask in a very kind way. Oda explains that back when the serialization began, he got a call from an old lady (possibly relative but isn't entirely clear) from his hometown in Kumamoto and she told him, "It's not good use the words 'kill someone'." He always thought it was a given that Luffy and gang wouldn't use it but didn't think it could be helped for villains, however, as his friends or aquaintances died in real life, he came to be an adult that thought the meaning of the word was really much worse. He'll use it for gags or reeeeeeally bad enemies but he does so thinking it's a really bad word. He doesn't want anyone immitating that.

Someone asks if Urouge's weapon is a pencil. That or a chocobat (chocolate stick candy). Oda says, "Right, it's a pencil. But was there was no eraser that could erase its writing that being a a problem did he set out to sea in order to find an eraser that could? Is the lead 2B?" Yes, he asks this as a question.

SBS 3

A reader asks his daily schedule. There is no way I can express how funny this is without scanlating but I have literally no extra time (today is graduation!!!!) but I'll do my best to estimate his pie-grahish clock:

THE TIME'S ARE ROUGH ESTIMATES! HE DOESN'T GIVE EXACT TIMES AND I DON'T HAVE TIME TO ANALYZE HIS INTENTIONALLY SHITTY SKETCH.

12AM-12:30AM-Diarrhea and eating.

12:30AM-6AM- Be miserable.

6AM-7:30AM- Sleep

7:30AM-8AM- Eat

8AM-1PM- Cossack Dance

1PM-1:30PM- WORK ON DRAFTS

1:30PM-6PM- Borrow help

6PM-7PM- Eat

7PM-12AM- Tidy up


Someone noticed Hannyabal's strawberry underwear and asked what other crazy underwear he has. Oda drew his collection:
flower pattern
giant boobs pattern
mushroom pattern (symbol for you know)
frill design
fundoshi
thong (titled 'super bikini')
elephant (also symbol for...)

Someone asks if Inazuma's glasses are 3D glasses. Oda didn't seem to have thought about it but he guesses they are. He thinks it's crazy cuz you'd see all sorts of things jumping out at you (despite us perceiving things in depth) for example, Wanze's eyes and...oh, those really ARE jumping out.

sbs 4

Reader asks if he met Hancock whether she would like him or not like Hannyabal. Oda calls Hannyabal out.

Reader asks if base for Admirals are all who we thought they were. He says yes. He wanted to use Bunta's characteristic crewcut from Battle Without Honor or Humanity but he thinks it was hard to see under the hat. He says people who do't know them should just realize that they're cool old guys.

Reader noticed Bentham turned into Pandaman and asks if he met him. Oda confirms (seems to be joking) and wonders when he could have met him.


SBS 5

interesting question. Someone asks why there are some people (Hannyabal, Oars) who grow horns. Oda says to think of it as an individual chracteristic. He's interested in drawing people with even more interesting faces.

WOW

I was just thinking about this and was hoping he'd bring it up someday.

Someone said they were talking with a friend and noticed that HE (ie. excluding games, readers etc.) only calls Luffy and co. the 'Straw Hat Gang' and NOT the Straw Hat Pirate Crew. He says he doesn't mind what other call it but it's his policy to call them the gang.

(I struggled with that when updating my site and ultimately went with crew because it fit the series but if he feels so strongly about it, consider that shit changed ASAP)

A reader says he has a mushroom growing out of his body and wonders if he could get it taken out at the island of women. He asks if Oda has one too. Oda says it's a penis. He apologizes for using such a rude term and decides to censor himself calling it a PE_NIS

>>4421

This volume's got Sanji, but I've seen no translations of that yet.

when are we getting a real translation of this? that guy on APforums can't be the only guy that translates all this crap

>>4743

Stephen and The Dude both used to work with Greg, but The Dude's not in Japan anymore, and Stephen has since quit, so you'll have to make do with this.

>>4746

you're telling me we only have three people who can read japanese and are willing to translate an SBS?

>>4748

The only people to have access to it within the first two weeks AND speak very fluent Japanese. Suck it up.
