1. Saldeaths VA = Interesting & good choice
2. Bit with Sengoku & Garp was also funny
3. Great to see Bon Clay back although "Queer Way" kinda bothered me. guess I'm too used to Okama Way or Oh Come My Way. -
I hope that FUNi tries to go with consistency with their dub so Mr. 2 always will be a pretty dancing boy.
"Ooooooooooooooh dance awayyyyyyyyyyy~~"
-
Finally got around to watching 431
Bon Clay is back! Woo-hoo! Looks like Toei has eased up on the censorship as well.
Saldeath's voice is great. Hard to believe that's Zoro.
Sengoku eats cookies. Om nom nom. -

No way. If Toei really is easing up the censorship, then FUNi should reflect that as well.
-
I always liked crossdresser over "queer". it's the same amount of syllables, so :\
-
Queer is an acurate translation though in a sense, as Okama is slang for homosexual, as queer is in english.
-
This queer thing is very interesting. It used to be that Toei called him a dancer or something right? Because I remember it was reflected accurately in the funi dub. But now this is the first time they are actually using Okama way? I'm glad, especialy since it's a big thing with all the newkamas coming up.

For both of the versions of the anime its the first time that the hole gay aspect is being fully explored. In the manga it was pretty clear, and we had okama kenpo, but with the anime, we had ballerina kenpo. In movie 8 they went with it like the manga, and made it okama, so funi went with crossdresser, and now in the anime, where you can't really hide it with whats coming up soon, It's gonna be like the manga. The anime may stick with ballerina kenpo for consistancy, but idk.

snicker snicker…

Also does this mean that Funi is going with Sogeking? This is the first time it's come up since they've been subbing and dubbing right?

I guess…
It never crossed my mind that they would use anything else.

What about Sniper King?

Then they'd have to edit the wanted poster.
And only Viz would try something like that.
-
Actually funi did do an edit on the eyecatcher for zoro->zolo for tv(and it accidentally made its way into the first dvd).
T'will be interesting. I'd prefer sniperking myself.

Yeah, I remember seeing that. I also remember some whiner complaining about FUNi "editing the title card from Zolo, the true translation."
But he was on YouTube, 'nuff said.
-
I have a question. Is OP the only series that takes off thier earlier episodes for the legal streams?
-
In regards to?
Series in general over the internet? (This one I know the answer is definitely… No. I have seen other TV series take off earlier episodes and seasons.)
Anime only?
FUNi properties only? -
In general, as long as they are legally distributed. It's kinda bothers me that earlier episodes have and expiration date.
-
Yes, because being available on-line for months is so much worse than being aired once on television and never shown again.
-

According to the Funimation blog's little imformal "convention" the episodes will be coming back later.
-

I didn't ask for your petty sarcasm. Nice try though.
@Dixxy:

That's great to know atleast.
-
I kinda see it like a TV Schedule, it's like they're showing Reruns. Just the reruns last for a little while longer than normal TV. Will we Never see those eps again on FUNi's site?
Logic, and FUNi's blog (according to Dixxy) say we will. -
@Dixxy:

For real?
That's rather interesting… I wouldn't think they would put them back up. However I do find it a bit weird since the vast majority of subbed episodes of anime have no expiration dates.

Do you actually think that means anything? It just means clips of episodes will be avalable like how case closed episode clips are. And what does it matter to us, we support Funi's One Piece and buy the dvd's! I hope…..
-
I think they're removing them so that they can support more viewers( so that the servers can handle the viewers) so until they upgrade or something they're focusing on up to date viewers i guess.
-
Just watched the simulcast today, I'm not so sure about the translation of "okama" to queer, bI thin crossdresser suits it as less offensive and closer to what Bon Clay is. I'm sure they have a good reason to why they used "queer" I've just got to get out of being used to 'okama". Besides that the song and kiss at the end made Bon Clay re-intro awesome.
-
runs in to the thread
It's out!!!!!
runs out to watch -
And it's not working for me… Saying "Please Wait" for a long time. :getlost:
But yay for new One Piece episode on my birthday! ^_^
-
Yeah it's not working for me either.
Oh good.EDIT: There we go, it's up and running.
-

I got that for a bit, refreshed and it's working for me.
Hmm Oh Come My Way.
The only use of "queer" in the episode:
-
You know, we really take the canon episodes for granted. Considering how awful the recent filler was I'm glad that we get farther in the story.
Best Parts:
Shit Man! (along with Hannyabal calling him that)
The Hydra… HOLY CRAP!
Zoro's return! No wait that was Bon Clay... still awesome!
Bon Clay kicking ass.
A Koala?So it looks like they'll use both "Oh Come My Way" and "Queer".
-
I got no commercials at all tonight which was awesome.
I found this episode to be enjoyable.
When Saldeath used the trident as a flute, I half-expected to hear the flute tune that you hear when Willy Wonka calls the Oompa Loompas.
-
Anybody take a count of how many times the 's-bomb' was dropped?
That was incredible. O.o

Agreed/Same on both counts. A flute tune would have been a neat touch.
A Koala?
YES LMAO. I really love the silly Marine moments.
-
Well Bon Clay's voice had a hint of Zoro, which was cool.
So which Strawhat is Sadi-chan (assuming she is voiced by one)? Her voice reminded me of Nami, but I'll be very surprised if its Robin. -

Thanks, she played the voice really well.
-
Hyyydraaa!!! I've been waiting for that scene. As much as I love the translations and all, I still can't get used to "Oh Come My Way." It's ok and all but it just doesn't seem right.
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=1450
She was a voice in Dead or Alive eh? I guess it fits.
-
Nice episode tonight, and add free to boot!
I'm fine with them still using Swan Kenpo or Oh Come My Way, so long as they at least acknowledge what he truly is. It's more disrespectful to them trying to cover it up if you think about it…
And yes, the Hydra was sick. I can't wait to see it in action in a few episodes. Also, Franky's VA seems to have gotten 5 times better as making his Bon Clay voice sound different from Franky. Just listen at the flashback from years ago to the voice in the new parts of the episode. I really would like to see Bon and Franky in the same room together. xD

It's funny you say that, I saw him hold his trident like that and this scene popped into my head.

The preview pic for this episode showed Luffy and the Minotaur. Weird…
Still, awesome episode.

Yeah. I was wondering if anyone else noticed. It's probably a shot from the next episode preview.
I only got one commercial which was at the start.

It isn't. They used the same images as Fuji's site. They got/uploaded the one for next week's instead.

This post is deleted!

That was an entertaining episode, but it made me feel stupid… because I was actually thrown off by Mr. 2 imitating Zoro. I don't know how, but I was…
"A koala?" lol... Seriously, that made me laugh. Is it that much of a stretch of the mind to see a koala in the world of One Piece? You got crazy things like talking reindeers and polar bears and everything. lol
-
Fuck, yeah.
BON-CHAN~!
-
Anyone but me notice that after 200 + episodes they finally used the original Zoro theme song? Seriously, how many Zoro fights I was missing that theme and they finally use it but on someone who's not actually Zoro. :blink:
