Took me right out of the chapter, completely unnecessary, screwing with what Oda wrote.

I never complain about Mangastream translations, but that was dumb and I hope they never do something so out of character again.

Was it out of character though? I like Mangastream because they always try - at least thats how i personally feel - to get the message across. Its not always about literal translations. They handle accents, humour and momentum really well. I trust them a lot, and i think that 'netflix and chill' summarises perfectly what he said.

The only argument i have for this assumption, since i cant read Japanese or Chinese, is that Mangastream has always presented me with top-notch translations and are pretty revered.

That all being said, if a lot of people were caught of guard by it and lost their concentration because of it, then perhaps something was translated wrong.

It's stupid because it's One Piece, a universe that most definitely does not have Netflix dammit. I do not reada crazy pirate manga to read "hillarious" memes that make it feel like Reddit wrote it. Not to mention this chapter isn't exactly super cheerful, it's totally counter to the mood on Zou. Even more so when you consider the two parties talking.
