Wow this is really sad, who knew One Piece would fall so low
Funimation DVD Discussion IV (Please Check First Post for FAQ)
-
-
not to say anything about the near future of OP since they've (supposedly) been dubbing PuHa but I'm still skeptical on the long term future of dubbed one piece and these delays don't help alleviate those feelings. At least I can say for certain that the manga will see it's ending released here in the US, I'm just not sure about the anime
-
We've had worse hiatuses
-
-
Well even so it doesnt undermine my point. Cmon, while there has been only one hiatus like this,I sill mantain we've been through much worse and came through unscathed, 4Kids anyone?
-
I choose to remain unreasonably optimistic and believe the reason for the delay is because they are dubbing the old movies, even though I know it will never happen

Why choose to torture yourself like that? [emoji38]

I mean, I wouldn’t say it’ll ‘never’ happen.

Or more realistically, the cast and crew are tied up with the ten billion simuldubs they're working on.
Funimation keeps stretching themselves so thin. Eventually, something's going to break. -
I keep seeing posts and keep thinking there is news.
I'm not worried. They are having a panel at NYCC. Maybe someone will ask something. http://www.newyorkcomiccon.com/en/Sessions/66769/Funimation-Presents-One-Piece-Panel

Oh wait, I'll be there that day! Lol I'll try to ask or report any news if I can
-
Oh good. Mike is at a convention in my city this week but I don’t want to pay $40/day to go… Conventions aren’t worth it when you only read One Piece and a handful of other popular series. Most of my reading is Asano and Matsumoto and their ilk...

Not getting my hopes up. It looks more like a fan panel than an announcement panel.
-
I still feel like the reason for the hiatus is negotiating the dressrosa deal with toei. Hopefully they have at least started the scripts for that arc. As for the NYCC panel, maybe they will reveal some details.
-
I feel like that panel is our best bet for any sort of update, especially if Sabat Clinkenbeard and Christian are all going to be there. The description is interesting too… Color me cautiously optimistic.
-
Yeah I'm not worried. Relatively speaking the dub is catching up with the subs. We've had hiatus' before, and we've had stints of no news before. Many of us start to get knots in our stomach every time this happens, then new releases happen and all is good.
So just netflix and chill. We'll get the dressrosa arc soon enough.
-
My guess for delays is that financially other series need dubbed as soon as they can. One Piece isn't a simuldub/new series, I don't think it is priority, but that doesn't mean it will stop.

I’m not worried either. But I do get annoyed for the fact that this release schedule ( when it does come out ) will be exactly the same , as in releasing a set every other month. Which is grating.

My wait is even longer, I only buy the collections now.
Simple reason for that is….shelf space.

I'm in the same boat, though I'm excited to finally watch Fishman Island dubbed

I stopped buying since the beginning of thriller bark, due to money issues. And have been buying the collections up till now. I’ll absolutely buy either one though.
I’ve given up on consistency as well. I just want to buy them at this point. But Funimation won’t shut up and take my money !!!
-
I mentioned in my last post just came out. Its quality is consistent with the originals from what I remember. I can only assume we'll get ones for Franky and Brook soon too.
In regards to hiatus the thing that makes it odd is that VAs tweeted about recording lines for late PH episodes quite some time ago (around the beginning of the year IIRC), so while the simuldubs may be slowing down the One Piece dub, they're not what's bottlenecking the releases.

Seems like a typical panel description to me. I suppose if they're ready to announce season 10 and want to make a big thing of it, a One Piece panel at one of the biggest conventions in the country would be a good place to do it.
-
Mike McFarland is at Austin wizard con right now. Someone should ask him there.
-
So both Voyages and Collection sets are completely caught up.
And no sign of Punk Hazard dub yet?

Not excatly. Since Collection 23 only covers up to Season 9, Voyage 4. There still Season 9, Voyage 5 that needs a collection.

@LUFFY#1:
FUNi tweeted another 101 video, but also tweeted a link to email notifications for One Piece news.
This makes me a little hopeful they are planning on announcing something soon.
Saw that as well. Between that and the NYCC panel having Sabat, Clinkenbeard, and Christian all present (why tease us with the dub VAs at a panel if the show is going on a hiatus or worse?) and the fact that they're promising a Q&A session, I'm sure we're bound for some news soon.
At times it's tough being a Shonen fan. I've also been pretty annoyed lately with the huge release gaps for HxH and Bleach Blu-rays, Jojo set 3, and the slow Dragon Ball Super releases. I know most of that is Viz, but still. Hoping we get some solicitations at NYCC for all of those and more.
-
Think anything will get announced alongside the new season? What’s most likely besides the 20th anniversary movie?

I don't know about anything else, but it's seeming more and more likely we are getting a new season announcement at NYCC. FUNi just announced a One Piece cafe event that will happen there
-
See folks, nothin' to worry about. I was at Otakon when they announced S4, and that was when we had no clue if they'd go past the work done for Toonami. If they kept going then, I'm sure they'll keep doing right by us for years to come.
-
No one thought they’d stop. We’re all just mad about the slow down.
-
Some people were indeed getting into the idea that Funi could stop. Not me though.
-
Doesn't change the fact we just went like 3-4 months with no info whatsoever.
Hopefully Punk Hazard releases soon, like January/February since we know December is not going to happen.

Don't count your chickens before they hatch. Still no news.

nycc is this weekend, don't know specifically when the FUNi panel is though.
-
Oh darn, still no news. Man this sucks.
Hopefully something will come this weekend.
-
Keeping my expectations low.
-
As should we all.
I couldn't help it and finally watched the latest dubbed episode. Been putting it off for months, but now I'm caught up, damnit. Since the dub is the only way my girlfriend watches/reads One Piece, we're going to start watching one subbed episode a month to make this hiatus more bearable. Of course, the next handful of episodes are filler.
-
Maybe we could try being optimistic? This weekend, while not a sure thing, is looking pretty promising.

Unfortunately, they did not announce anything at their industry panel yesterday. I don't know if they have any other panels where they could announce a new season, but I think we taking a L again.
-
There still the One Piece panel on Sunday.
-
I was able to score a free ticket for NYCC today! I'll try my best to stop by the One Piece VA Panel. However, while I think it might be odd if the voice cast announces the new season, if they don't I don't think that means there isn't one being dubbed. No need for doom and gloom.
-
If Colleen is there, it won’t be odd. She’s a big wig at Funimation, not just a voice actor. Same for Mike.
Fingers crossed, of course.
-
Hey all! I’m at the panel.
Nothing too new BUT at fan q&a’s they specifically said that they can’t answer questions about new seasons, but stay tuned. And that’s usually entertainment business talk for its coming but they’ve probably signed NDAs and can’t reveal it until it’s officially announced. Hopefully that puts some minds at ease!
-
Yeah. Nothing new here, folks. Move along.
-
yeah "stay tuned" is the typical response to any "are you going to licence ____?" questions. I'm not expecting to hear anything until next year, spring at the earliest
-
Well, at least they had a OP panel at all. It goes to show that it's still a priority for them. Any interesting stories, SnoCone?
-
I love having lowered expectations

a new season announcement would have put my mind at ease, not a stay tuned lol. We already know they dubbed punk hazard, some of us just find it ridiculous we are having such a long wait with the DVD releases. We we on a good pace but now it will be years to hear some of the best moments in the time skip dubbed.
