Argentina[]
The One Piece manga was orignally being published in Argentina by LARP Editores, since 2009, with erratic publication periods. Unlike other manga titles, LARP decided to translate some battle techniques of the characters to english, some others to spanish and keep others in japanese (with translations added as subnotes), depending on the context. In June 2018, with the release of the volume 42, the publisher announced that they had lost the rights to keep publishing One Piece in the country.
However, that same month Editorial Ivrea, the biggest manga publisher in Argentina, acquired the rights to publish the series. Editorial Ivrea's edition started it's run in August 2018, releasing two volumes per month: one restarting the series from volume 1 and another continuing the numbering of the previous publisher from volume 42. On June 2nd, 2023 was released the volume 41 finishing the reprint of the volumes released by the previous publisher. Unlike LARP's edition, the new one has a dust jacket and a graphic design in order to match closer to the original Japanese volumes. Like the Viz media version, Ivrea uses the name of the Saga in each volume (East Blue, Alabasta, Skypiea, Water Seven, Thriller Bark, etc). Ivrea's release of the first volume includes the original color pages from Shonen Jump in the first chapter, and starting with volume 2, each volume comes with a double page color spread.
On September 2nd, 2022 Ivrea released the short story collection Wanted by Eiichiro Oda to anime convention Anime-con Argentina 2022 exclusively to attendants.This version has a metallic effect on the volume logo. Later that year on December 8th, 2022 was the release of the regular edition on all retailers.

Spanish version[]
4Kids Version[]
The Latin American Spanish dub of One Piece was broadcast on Cartoon Network LA in 2006-2008 and was based off of the 4Kids version, including censorship, but kept very close to the Japanese script in terms of specific names or places (for example, Devil Fruit is "Fruta del Diablo" and the Marines are "la Marina", instead of "Fruta Maldita" or "Armada" respectively). Oddly enough, when this dub aired on Televisa 5, it featured a dubbed version of "We Are" and "Memories" (as the CN version aired the Latino version of the 4kids rap) but still featured the 4Kids cuts. All 104 edited episodes from 4Kids Entertainment were broadcast in Latin America.
