One Piece in Sweden

==Names==
Many names are translated from their original Japanese forms to Swedish. For example, Kokoro is named Hjärta (Heart) in Swedish and Mr. 2 Bon Kurei is named Herr 2 Hägg 'o' Syrén which means "Mr 2 Bird cherry 'n' lilac". The latter's name is in fact derived from the Swedish expression "mellan hägg och syrén" ("Between bird cherry and lilac"), referring to a time of the year between the blooming of bird cherry and lilac. This is meant to correspond to the character's Japanese name, Bon Kurei (Bon Kurei being a night in the Obon festival). Also, some of the characters' names are spelled differently in Swedish, for example, Luffy is named Ruffy. Several characters are re-named for seemingly unknown reasons (such as Brook becoming Brukk–however, this can be because "Brukk" in Swedish is pronounced the same way as "Brook" is pronounced in English–or the Supernova Apoo becoming Pao).

==Manga==
In Sweden, One Piece has been published since 2003. As of Volume 36, its publishing house, Bonnier Carlsen slowed their release speed down to six volumes a year. The editing of the manga is sometimes viewed as careless.
The Swedish manga's translator Simon Lundström translated the first 54 volumes from Japanese to Swedish. Afterward, Magnus Johansson took over the translating job, and has translated all the volumes up to Volume 65, before Simon Lundström translated the final volume of the Swedish translation after he had won the Manga-case.
The SBS column is translated as well, but it is renamed "LBFJ" ("Läsarbrev från Japan", meaning "Reader mail from Japan").
The Swedish volumes uses the German cover designs and even sound effects, since the publishers base their release off the German-translated volumes rather than the Japanese ones, and only a few sound effects are translated into Swedish. This is because the publishing house Bonnier Carlsen cooperates with the German publishing house of the same name. However, the manga is translated from Japanese rather than from German (unlike the Swedish version of Dragon Ball), and with an exception for Luffy, the names of the characters have no overlap with the German translation.
The Swedish translation of One Piece ended at Volume 66 due to a heavy decline in sales. Initially it was planned for the whole series to be translated, but the assumption was made during a period of high manga sales in Sweden and the publishers not anticipating the eventual length of the series. Currently the most up to date release of the series in Sweden is in English, via distribution of VIZ Media's translation and releases through their UK branch.
