One Piece FUNimation releasing One Piece

I realized this is news worthy. ANN News

They couldn't possible make OP any worse the 4kids have. But they do start off where 4kids left off.

I realized after it is brought up else where that I should post a thread. I know for a while. Heh.

One important issue is will Sanji have a cigarette or a sucker?

No trailers on the website yet.

They barely started picking a cast. ANN says this:

Brina Palencia as Tony Tony Chopper
Christopher R. Sabat as Roronoa Zoro
Colleen Clinkenbeard as Monkey D. Luffy
Eric Vale as Sanji
Luci Christian as Nami
Sonny Strait as Usopp
Stephanie Young as Nico Robin

A good video mocking 4kids One Piece. There are more that should be watched.

I HAVE heard recently both Colleen and Christopher Sabat doing Luffy and Zoro (respectively), and they both sound better.

As for Zoro's "sucker", I'm guessing he's going to turn 18 when Funimation takes charge.

I pray for this.

It sucks how it will start at episode 144 though. At least there is japanese version available with subtitles. Guess they can't because of 4kids.

 

4 Kids takes a good thing and messes it up.

I'd like Funimation to start doing all their Anime now. I'm pretty sure Tokyo Mew Mew (ie. Mew Mew Power) would have gotten sooo much more attention on Toonami, after Naruto, and if it was made by Funimation.

How do you cut a CAT girl from saying 'Nya!'!?

-Seishin

 

That's the truth.

Does it mean anything?

Probably not. 4kids for shames us.

 

Here's the complete series for that top ten worst moments in One Piece.

I can't believe I missed this news earlier. I quite literally pooped a brick. Is it any good or did FUNimation muck it all up once more?
