So I was browsing around specific twitter accounts to catch on certain anime/manga news and I found a particular post talking about how Tite Kubo “hated” Oda since One Piece beat Bleach at one time during a reader’s popularity poll. The twitter user who posted it does translations for news about One Piece and is a native Japanese speaker, so of course it is alright to trust him, but I am not sure if I should hang on his every word and take at face value. It sounds like an exaggeration to me; to make the post more memetic and dramatic enough to get more people to widen there eyes. I looked at the original article and tried my best to translate it myself and see if what is stated is 100% true and from what I can make out of the google translation it seems like it is leaning more to “during that time”, not like “ever since then.” Now I know google translate is not 100% accurate with translations at all, especially with Eastern Asian languages, but I still think that some of the context is not shown in full. I mean after all it could just be playful humorous banter on Kubo’s part. And unfortunately there is no video footage or audio recordings of the radio interview which stated allegedly what Kubo said. I am wondering if any other Japanese speakers/translators may help clear this up? Is there really any other confirmed substantial evidence that Kubo does hold any amnesty to other mangaka and editors? I can’t find anything which confirms other wise. I just don’t like it when misinformation spreads around and misleads people whether or not it is intentional or not.
