One Piece in Spain

The Spanish dub of One Piece premiered on the channel Telecinco and the channel formally known as Fox Kids España (later known as Jetix España and now as Disney XD España) from 2003 to 2008 and was dubbed by Arait Multimedia. At March 2011 it started airing at the channel Boing and keeps airing there until today. The dub has aired up to episode 195, and as of April 2011, 68 new episodes are being dubbed.

History
When the show first aired on Telecinco, it received very little censorship, but made some changes in dialogue (such as renaming Luffy's attacks into silly Spanish puns). But as the dub progressed into the Baroque Works Saga, blood was digitally erased (only the good guy's blood) and scenes were cut.

The Spanish dub was similar to the Korean dub in that they wanted to make the show more localized for viewer, so as a result most Japanese (and English) text was digitally erased and written in Spanish (the art matches the Japanese very well in most cases).

All of the openings and some of the endings (see below) were dubbed into Spanish. However, Telecinco only received the rights to episodes 1-102 before Jetix picked up the reigns by airing episodes 103-195. These episodes were 100% uncut visual-wise and did not have text translated to Spanish (however the Openings and Endings were still dubbed), the reason why texts are not translated as usual was because they did ran out time.

On March 7th, 2011, One Piece was picked up by the Turner owned Boing Channel, and has recieved higher ratings than most of the programming on the channel. Arait Multimedia had received up to episode 400 and is currently dubbing more episodes as April 2011, until episode 263.

Censorship/Edits

 * Blood was erased from good characters in episodes 52-102.

 * In Episode 85, the scene where Hiluluk is shown naked is censored, showing a close-up of his face instead.
 * The Okama Kenpo is changed to Ballet Kenpo. Bon Kurei never mention okamas, and just talk about ballet and dance.
 * In Episode 120, the Tsumegeri Guards "aument the presion of the water inside their bodies" instead of "drinking the Hero Water". This may be due to a bad translation.
