Translation And Dub Issues
His name is spelled with katakana (バンチ?) most commonly used to render the English word bunch. It is romanized accordingly by the 7th popularity poll, which remains the only "official" romanization by any Japanese source. Notwithstanding this, the Viz manga romanizes his name as Bunchi.
Trivia
Banchi placed 792nd in the seventh popularity poll, tying for the place with 11 other characters: Take, Island Eater, Elder 1, Koda, Comil, Bao, An Zengaiina, Karma, Tegata Ringana, and the Matryo Princesses. One of the primary animal enemy types in One Piece Thousand Storm, the Giant Turtle, is based on Banchi and includes two variants: the Giant Black Turtle and the Giant White Turtle.
