Talk:One Piece Soundtracks

Layout
You should expand the table so it fills the page or at least center the whole thing. Also the titles of the songs should be bold. Neowitch 15:18, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

Won't anybody say this page is just done with fanbase information? Many of the names of the soundtracks are wrong, they are given with the scene the person who created this page thinks is most memorable for the themes. They have official names that comes out from the movies and other soundtracks collections. In addition, the order of the tracks is chaotic, they should be ordered by collection and by the date they were launched alongside it's respective moment on the series or movie. All we know that all the soundtracks used in movies are used then in the series, so I think this page should be re-organized and re-structured completely.

Prove the translations are wrong. Look at opening and ending articles. They use the fansub translations instead of Funimation translations also. The order was just recently redone to make it alphabetical so no it is not chaotic. SeaTerror 04:19, December 2, 2011 (UTC)

I will not prove the wrong soundtracks one by one, but for example: the theme named in this page "Facing the Admirals" is pretty obvious that refers to the track played during Luffy's face off against Kizaru, Akainu and Aokiji in Marineford when he gets to the plaza with Jinbei's help, BUT, the theme's name is wrong. That theme appears first in the thenth movie (Strong World) named "Hangeki no Noroshi - Mugiwara Kaizoku-dan Oukyuu ni Arawaru" that could be translated as "Counterattack Signal - The Straw Hat Pirates Arrives at Royal Palace". If there is any doubts, the theme is the second part of this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsoWu8mqfUU. As a I said before, is just an example, but there are a lot of mistakes in the names like this. Regarding the alphabetical order, there a lot of variations in translations, (more in fansubs of japanese language that never have an unique literal translation), however where there is an official order, is in the original soundtracks launched as merchandising, contaning every track used in the movies and the series, which order is given by the very Toei Animation. What's more there are an average of 25/30 themes per soundtracks, and consiering that there are 11 movies (I don't know if the 11th movie has one), 6 music collections and 1 special collection for Brook resulting in approximately 400/500 themes used as background music, meaning that several themes are lacking in the list.

Several is not enough said, I know not much about soundtracks and this idea came recent. I am not gonna argue with you, but I ask you to help improve the page as best as you can. You could share your opinions on the chat or here or on my talk page, but I believe this is the best place to discuss. There are two other people involved in the creation of this page. User:Marcus Junior and User:Swimswimfruit. I want to hear your suggestions regarding the classification of the soundtracks, which would be best. And since there are so many soundtracks, I would wish to know if to keep or not the description part.(Keep in consideration this:It is the only reference to how the soundtrack sounds like, if it would not be there, then a person who knows no soundtracks would be searching for the right one for hours, trying all out).

Also the translations. ST gave me two options, translations that Klobis makes or fansubs.

Other than that another idea for the table is the introduction of the "First appearance" column noting the first appearance.

Instrumental version
I noticed that certain songs in the soundtrack (like Chopper's Flashback, I think) and instrumental versions of character songs (Chopper sings it). Someone should do some sort of research on this and note it on the page. Not me though, because I'm lazy and busy. 20:57, December 9, 2011 (UTC)
