Confirmed DVD-only and DVD/Blu-Ray Combo Pack as well of course!
Funimation DVD Discussion III (Please Check First Post for FAQ)

OnePiecePodcast just tweeted:
So @Funimation to be holding two contests. One contest for creating box art for season 5 voyage 5, and one for guessing Brook's English VA.
-
Great to hear about the release date for SW! I don't see the point in releasing a DVD-only version though. Definitely picking up the DVD/BD combo! ^^
That contest sounds awesome, but I hate how they keep utilizing FB and Twitter. I suppose there's no other way, but I just refuse to get an account on either. =_=
-
OPP just revealed there will be a contest for season 5 voyage 5 box art, and to guess Brooks English VA.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
How can they have a contest for box art though? Don't they need the cover to be approved by Toei first?
-
Toei's team are the ones that draw the boxart, yeah, but maybe they can have whoever wins the contest's general layout as a direct reference for the Toei-drawn cover.
-
End of October for us… :)
-
Maybe they will let Toei choose the winner of the contest.
-
Well I'm getting a DVD only of that and how far ahead those FUNi make these covers? Could that mean the Voyage 5 is coming before the end of the year or something? I guess there won't be any One Piece news at FUNimation's industry panel then if they couldn't announce it at OPP's panel. There's still Otakon though.
-
I think that when designing the cover they're going to pick the one that best shows off the Going Merry and all its glory.:cwy:It's gonna be sad.

Not true if they've licensed more episodes then funimation would want to announce it themselves during their own panel i'm sure.
-
Well this all sweet news. I'm definitely getting the combo pack for SW. The contests sound like fun too, too bad I don't have FB and Twitter either. What does the person get for guessing Brook?

Everyone jumping into the Merry would be a great cover. I don't think they could do the really sad scene on the cover because it spoils too much.

No it doesn't have to mean that…We get S5V1 July, S5V2 September, and likely S5V3 around November...There wouldn't be any place or any point in trying to forcefully squeeze S5V5 this year. They likely have too much work on S5V3 & S5V4's covers and layout to make this contest apply to any Voyage earlier than S5V5.
-
So when is the funimation panel proper when new acquisitions are likely to be announced?

That's most likely to be on V4 if Lucci and Luffy don't fill it up. It seems more likely that V5 will start with the aftermath in Water 7 and end with them leaving, maybe even the ep with Ace and Blackbeard. So I can see why they have a little more freedom of what subject to use for this set; it's packed with iconic moments:
*Garp, Coby and Helmeppo
*The crew's new Wanted posters
*The Thousand Sunny
*Franky joi- On second though, that one might not work. –; -
@gum:

It's Sunday at 3:00 pm (I'm assuming PST). Here's a link to a guy who will live stream it: http://t.co/cycraejy4M

Not true. One Piece Podcast announced Season 4 back in 2011.
-

Didn't they already spoil this in one of the collections? Some card that said something like "Buy Season 4 to see the SH's newest Crewmate, Franky!"

Hahahathat's not what I mean.

Oh these time zones mix me up quite a bit. Today I went on the live stream at 1:00 only to be disappointed that I had to wait 3 more hours. Also just out of curiosity, how many people on this thread actually uses PDT.
-
Well they didn't announce season 5 and strong world right its still possible we get a announcement Sunday
-
Not true. One Piece Podcast announced Season 4 back in 2011.
Yeah but they weren't at a convention where as this time they are.
-
I might as well say what I'm thinking for the spreads of Voyages 3-6, and this is assuming the Boss Luffy eps are included:
V3: 288-299 (12 eps)
V4: 300-312 (13 eps)
V5: 313-325 (13 eps ending with Ace/Blackbeard)
V6: 326-336 (11 eps of straight filler)Also, it's probably already been pointed out, but I'll do so again: if the Thriller Bark sets include up through the Spa Island eps, that will make 48 episodes, aka 4 perfectly even 12-ep sets.
-
@Galaxy:
Oh right. "That" scene.
Wasn't that scene censored in the USA release of the game? Can't quite remember now.
-
So did they officially announce those contests yet? I don't see them anywhere besides the OPP Twitter…and how will they have a contest to decide the voyage 5 cover when we don't know what episodes are on it?
-
They'll probably tell us when the official announcement hits. OPP mentioned FUNi's official announcement arriving within the coming weeks.
-
Ahh, 16 characters of alright.
-

Yes, there was a random plank censoring Franky.

Ah that's it thank you. I was thinking if they decided to do "that scene"they can find an amusing way to censor it for a box art cover.

Guys, I had a frightening dream last night.
I dreamt that I was watching the episode where Sanji uses Diable Jambe for the first time, subbed on OP Official.
But instead of calling it Diable Jambe, the subs said "Super Spice Jambe".Is this a premonition? I hope not. :ninja:
-
Please tell me you are not being sarcastic and that it was just an awful dream!

It's funny because my dream a few nights ago involved hearing Brook in English and he sounded extremely annoying and not like Brook. :P
-
Just dreams guys chill
-
Set still hasn't shipped, eh? Well, I guess we'll get it at the end of next week.

At this rate we'll get it July 23. Hope the set comes soon.

For more details on the S5V5 cover contest, you can go to 2:02:50 in this video:
The One Piece Podcast guys talk a little more about it! It seems like you just come up with a general idea for a layout, and then Toei will take care of the details and actually putting it together.
-
Hm. So One Piece is returning the Neon Alley. Where did it leave off?
Also, Neon Alley announced VoD services and PC apps.
We'll probably get the set next week. Can't imagine getting it later.
-

Left off at season 1. They air 2 episodes a week and it comes back July 12 I think
-
For some odd reason, Amazon has the cover art for V2, but still not for V1.
-
@LUFFY#1:

I talked to Brian Ige from VIZ there and he said they'd be airing a couple of new episodes each week. Didn't get the exact amount, maybe I'll try asking him later.

He seems to be fibbing then, because the schedules on NeonAlley.com shows they are only still airing 2 episodes a week. Unless they plan on airing more than once a week. It really doesn't matter too much though.
-

To be fair, a couple, by definition, means 2.
And is there any news on this Brook contest? Is it being run by the Podcast or by Funi themselves? When it starts? Or are we just aware the contest will happen at some point?
-
Yeah I'll try getting in touch with Brian Ige again to clarify
-
It;s being run by FUNimation because hey'e the only ones that know the answer. We'll find out when it starts soon.
-
I wonder how Funi will sort out who got Brook's voice actor right first? People will likely be throwing names out in high volume, and sorting for who got it right will be tough. During the Marooned on One Piece Island stream, they would pick winner who got the answers right at random or the person they saw first with the correct answer, not necessarily the person that got it right first. They should have a fairer system IMO for a contest like this, especially if the prize turns out to be something big.
Just my thoughts on the contest.
-
I think it fair to assume this set will come next week.
-
i cannot wait to get more ONE PIECE. i love robin.
-
Hoping for news tomorrow. What time is the panel?

If it doesn't ship tomorrow then I I dunno if it will come early at all. :sad:
