Talk:Krieg

Okay-we say that hes called "pirate admiral". However, in episode 45 of the original, he is called "Kizoku Kantai TEITOKU" by Brandnew. And according to the info on the Nelson Royale article, "teitoku" is equivalent to "Commodore".

What gives?

 * From what I understand of the matter is that "Teitoku" can be translated as different ranks depending on how it is arranged or used in the medium it is used. It also depends on who's translating. This also applies to the other ranks. In fact in some other translations like in the Filipino version, Aokiji's rank is translated to General.


 * In the case of Don Krieg, I believe "Teitoku" was translated to Pirate Admiral because of the way his title was used, the way he was described, and other such notes.


 * For Nelson, I believe it was translated to Commodore because of the way he commanded his troops and because calling him an Admiral would make some confusion. In any case, it's best not to dwell too much on it since the rank of "Teitoku" doesn't exactly exist on Oda's Marine heirachy.Mugiwara Franky 13:50, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
