He told me a friend told him to watch One Piece. So I don't know if his friend gave him the files he was watching or it was the first thing he downloaded. But I'm surprised that it was the first thing he found…
Funimation dvd discussion II ( UPDATED 8/4/12, FIRST POST FOR F.A.Q)

Alert him that this version is both missing large chunks of episodes (Little Garden…) that eventually, this version was canceled for being so bad, so the other voice actors are his only option at that point, AND, stupid people tend to like cursing, tell him that there is cursing in the FUNi Dub.
-
He likes the voices better in 4kids? Has he heard Sanji yet?
-
@Badass:

He was in the Alrong arc so I am thinking so. It's kind of funny he prefers the voices instead of the actual story and arcs still in there and without unpunny puns and horribly slandering how serious One Piece can be. Plus the fact he's paying for this school and wasting his time in it.
-
Whatever, different strokes for different folks.
-
I saw a kid wearing a whitebeard t-shirt at my school. I asked him about it and he said, "yeah i used to watch it on cartoon network but then they changed the voices so i switched to the magna" (<–- yes he said motherfucking MAGNA) Then he told me that his favorite characters were ZoLo (I atarted having chest pains at this point) and Nami "cause she's hot". I left school early that day.

Jeez c'mon people will like what they like, especially what they originally saw.

Let them complain.
It's not their fault people are brain-damaged. -
A colleague of mine said he preferred Bleach yesterday and I stabbed the motherfucker to death with a kitchen knife. Posting from prison now, but it was worth it.
-

Stop acting like they're lower than us for liking the 4Kids dub.
If someone prefering the old dub seriously bothers you so, then... I don't know what to say. Welcome to the fucking world, I suppose.

You took that seriously?
And I have the problem? -
You took that seriously?
And I have the problem?It's a message board, I'm sure you know it's easy to misunderstand that.
-
Ohh! I have a story like this!
I drew Luffy in school once, and this guy came up to me, and said, "I used to watch the One Piece show on Cartoon Network until the voices started getting annoying." Then he left.
-
If any of my friends came up to me and said that they prefer the 4Kids dub, I would precede to slap the living shit out of them, followed by a painful and traumatic rehabilitation in proper One Piece training.
-
I had to deal with a forum with a bunch of 4Kids One Piece lovers. The worst case is one of the members refusing to continue with the Funimation dub since they changed the pirate rap. THE FREAKIN' PIRATE RAP. :getlost:
-
You took that seriously?
And I have the problem?Easy mistake. Given a lot of One Piece fans who hate 4Kids actually ARE serious about this whole thing…
-
I find it ok for them to prefer it over FUNi's dub, but to say that it is better than FUni's dub is something I cannot let by. As long as they know the history its had and know which one is more accurate on the message the original author of the series wants to(even though it still isn't that accurate), I'm fine with that.
-
I wouldn't take them saying "It's better" too seriously, though.
Usually when they say that, it just means they "prefer" that version.
-
I'm just surprised people can even FIND the 4kids version these days… it's been dead for like 5 years...
-
I will say though, after FUNi was done re-releasing season 1 of One Piece I watched some old 4kids episodes. It's actually really funny to watch now that we know we don't have to deal with it anymore.
-
There's some 4Kids "One Piece" DVDs down the street from where I live for pretty cheap. Thinking of getting at least one…
-
Wouldn't hurt, Firecrouch.
-
You can usually get 4Kids DVDs for about 3 bucks brand new on Amazon and the like. It's a good conversation piece and a great source of laughs.
-
I would buy all the 4Kids DVDs just to prevent people from buying them instead of the Funimation ones.
-

What a blissful 5 years it's been. The 4Kids One Piece was a masterpiece of terrible. It should be shown to children as a cautionary tale about what happens when a mass entertainment corporation buys properties it cause nothing about just to sink it, and auction it to the highest bidder.
-
Can you blame them for not seeing One Piece as anything different from their other properties? They weren't in the market to please us teen/adult fans, they were in the business of making saturday morning cartoons for 6-10 year olds in a puritan country where the S&P is super strict on content, all in the interest of selling toys.
I mean, their approach sadly works for so many other series, there really was no reason for them to think it wouldn't work here.
That being said, the edits/rewrites were pretty insane, to the point of being legendary.
-
I remember back in 2003, people laughing at me because I liked One Piece, which was just exactly like Dragon Ball and that Yu-Gi-Oh was much better. haha.
-
The funny thing is that Yugioh was dubbed by 4Kids too. Lol
-
We have the German versions, though. One Piece was perfectly fine and had a good dub. Yu-Gi-Oh! was based off of the 4Kids version, but I thought it was ok.
-
I would buy all the 4Kids DVDs just to prevent people from buying them instead of the Funimation ones.
Then you and I would get together and have a bon fire with them.
-
No one piece solids in June guys. Very sad

I'll bring the flamethrower.
@LUFFY#1:No one piece solids in June guys. Very sad
What?
-
What?
Right Stuf put up the June Solid's for Funimation and nothing One Piece related.
-
Oh. Are the June Solids list unchangeable?
-
Oh. Are the June Solids list unchangeable?
Rescheduling is always a possibility. But yeah if more "One Piece" hasn't been announced yet let's not expect anything for June.
-
July sounds more likely anyhow. Pushing it farther than that would make me sad. Though it is probably very likely that it will be.
-

I don't think that's standard procedure for disposing of nuclear waste.
-

Are you getting released anytime soon?
I don't think that's standard procedure for disposing of nuclear waste.
Then we'll send them to THE MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNN!!!
-

Yeah, July seems more likely. Still optimistic.
@King:I don't think that's standard procedure for disposing of nuclear waste.
We can hide it under Kubo's house.

-

Nothing is really likely until it's officially announced they have a new season.
-
I don't think that's standard procedure for disposing of nuclear waste.
Kind of in bad taste considering the situation over in Japan right now.
I'm assuming you didn't mean it in that way, but just sayin'.
-
All the blogs and online stores where you can buy One Piece are now all saying that Voyage 5 will contain eps. 196 - 206. Things look good.
-
And let's not forget that One Piece Official has made mistakes on the Voyages before (nothing as big as missing an episode, but still).
-
I also wanna mention the new Funimation.com beta people are invited to via email(I was :D) it has the episode list for all their One Piece episodes. And episode 206 is on the list. It even has a episode title! But to be honest, I wouldn't really suggest episode 206 as a absolute confirmation that we are getting more episodes. I'd say if we hear a huge change in acting between 205 and 206 would be a better confirmation.

@Badass:

Check your email to see if you are invited. I was gonna tell you guys about it, but you all were talking about something else…

List of conventions Funimation is attending. Boo yah. There are two cons before SakuraCon/AnimeBoston weekend.

Speaking of which, I signed up, and the opt-in streamsend site link they sent me (to make sure you're human) wouldn't work for me…

May I say, from the cursory look I've given it, the Beta rocks! I'll give it a more thorough look after/during the 24 hour podcast.
