They're not wrong. But they are also not right.
It's important to remember that this is a fictional world. Were these thing are possible. Unlike in reality.

And yes. Taking all the subtly out of it makes it stupid. If I wanted to get hit in the face with a dead fish, I would visit the whore house above the wet market in China town.
You know kids watch one piece right?
Emporio Ivankov is a tranny. Has been for over a decade now. He swaps peoples sexes. You are mad at me for pointing this out? Or maybe that I called it fiction, for a fictional world? You tell me.
Be prepared to be really angry then. That is a fact regardless as to how the story is translated. Making the whole complaint about bad translations, pointless.
This story is full of blood sex and death. Don't let your kids watch adult cartoons without supervision.
While there is plenty of blood, there is very little death in OP, just a handful of useful deaths like Ace and Whitebeard, as well as Gol D. Roger to setup the show. Most bad guys aren't killed, and just get left to escape/attack again/etc later. There is next to 0 sex in One Piece, just some sexualized designs on women and the traditional trope of a pervert/come-on-strong character like Sanji.
It's a show for children, its not a show for adults specifically, it's in shonen(young boy) jump, is broadcast in Japan during primetime when kids would normally watch anime, and is hugely popular over there.
Japanese people are just more subtle with the way they deliver this kind of shit, and even if Ivankov is considered a tranny for any reason, he still calls himself a new kama and is part of the new kama group. They are just a separate thing for that country since they haven't been pozzed as much yet.
I see your point.
Now I just need to figure out why people find this comments to be controversial:
Or this one:
Which were the only two points I made, that seems to be drawing a negative reaction. That everyone wants to down vote, yet not address.
