What is the best way to translate a dialect or accent of the original language that is not the norm (e.g., Kansai-ben)?
Different country's English accent (e.g., Irish or Australian)
Different American regional accent (e.g., Southern)
Have the character use different slang (e.g., 'pops' instead of 'dad')
Minor speech pattern differences (e.g., dropping the 'g' in '-ing' words)
No difference in translation but have a translation note
I don't care

Question: In your opinion what is the most popular manga series out there?
Doesn't matter what genre.

I think there is a great difference in "what is your favorite" and "what is most popular"

I would say "popularity wise" Naruto is the one. It has Volumes on the NY Times Best Seller List. Cartoon shown on Cartoon Network as well as in Japan, over 12 Video games, the list goes on.

Is it the "best" manga? Nah!
Is it Popular? Jah!

Ah! I agree!
Digimon was crap in the third series.
Pokemon was cute but it got long. And I really don't like May.
As for Yu-Gi-Oh, I think it was because it was all the same after a while. We all know Yugi is going to win. It's called King of Games for a reason.

In Japan, the most popular is One Piece.

Everywhere else that speaks English, the most popular is Naruto.

@moritana: But, even though it's popular, is it more popular than Naruto, Bleach, Air Gear, and the such?

Answer is: no, it isn't.

Right now, Naruto, Bleach, and One Piece are all that I keep hearing about.

But look back, and it was Pokemon, Sailor Moon, and Dragonball. Ah, the good days. 'Though I infinitely prefer Naruto to Dragonball.

I agree with the other posters, probably Bleach or Naruto... that said, I have no idea what these two series are about in any way.

Yes, the rock I've been living under for the past few years has been rather comfortable, thank you for asking.
