@Lobster:
I uploaded the Funimation Intro!!
omg omg omg!!
An amazing job. Vic hit the notes and beats perfectly. Although now that I know who sings it I keep visualizing Edward Elric singing on a pirate ship.
I still expected to her "sekiu…. soda!" at the beginning though.
I uploaded the opening and ending to youtube.
THANK YOU! I looked all over youtube for those, now I need to watch it again…
Hey, it's been like five seconds, and there still isn't a new post. What's the deal?
I can't wait to see Buggy and Ace. I've also been listening to Hikari E's dub nonstop since that download link was put up. I'm in love…
We finally have a One piece dub I'm not ashamed or embarrassed of.

I can't wait for the Jaya episode. That's when things start to get intense…
shifty eyes
I uploaded the sample for those who dont want to go to sendspace
I didn't quite like the "I'm gonna be King of the Pirates" at the end of the preveiw.
That line sounded like it was rushed to me.
Seen the OP…oh my got...
OH MY FUCKING GOT. I CAME.
This had better got good ratings. I wanna see One Piece hopefully pushed to an earlier timeslot, and possibly even marathons. Not on the same level of Naruto, like Naruto Hundo. But like 2-3 hours or something.
Colleen said the new episode titles well also. I was afraid she might do what the Odex dub guy does and do it like a person reading a book to little children. But she did awesome
Well it was a nice dub, though I thought Sabat could lighten up on the deepness a bit, other than that I am liking it. I'm more excited for next week so I can hear Ace.
hmmm….I hope they keep Ace Ace.
Wow…just wow! Funi fucking NAILED IT! Consider me a weekly viewer, and consider those boxsets BOUGHT.
My expectations for the FUNi dub have always been high and they've met. I can't wait to see what else FUNi does. I have to say I'm very pleased and happy to watch Dub Piece in english now.
…I'm so happy I can't express my feelings in words.
So I'll express it in keyboardmash instead.

Now we have to wait a whole week for the next ep, and I have to endure a whole week of my little sister fangirling over the fact that Ace will be in the next episode. @____X
@Phaser:
hmmm….I hope they keep Ace Ace.
I wouldn't. They won't.
Again. Known for months.
Seen the OP…oh my got...
OH MY FUCKING GOT. I CAME.
INORITE?
Man, how can we contact YTV and harrass them into getting this? >D
…why did my comment be deleted? ;.;
I loved it.
I laughed WAY more than on the japanese even, and I wanted to drown in the opening song. I would've been happy dying right there. It was so amazing.
Sanji didn't have a loopy voice, and I was upset the ending was cut short. I wanted to hear more AMAZING Funi song. ;.; AND I was upset that I now have to wait an ENTIRE WEEK!! ...I'm going to draw so much fanart till then. My fandom has grown tenfold.
Wow…Vic did a good job on the OP dub of Hikari E.
Was anyone shocked at the transition into the show? As soon as the credits to Bo Bo Bo ended, the "OOOOOooooohhhh" part of the dub started. They didn't even to to commercial. I was caught off guard and almost pissed myself…
Well, not really, but it was still weird.
Oh, btw I didnt like Hikari E much, maybe because I never liked it except the "Fly away glum blue sea part" which I think got taken out.
And Sanji's voice is sex on a stick. I am a totally hetero guy,but I honestly liked his dub voice best in this episode!
Also I noticed they tried to keep the voices on par with exactly how the japanese ones sounded for stuff like Masira'a laugh, Sanji's voice in love-cook mode, Usopp's screams, even Luffy's laugh,etc.
The ending theme was perfect. Not to mention Gold Roger's voice!
i was caught off guard too, I didn't expect it to begin so fast… but as soon as it did I yelled "YEAH!"
Colleen said the new episode titles well also. I was afraid she might do what the Odex dub guy does and do it like a person reading a book to little children. But she did awesome
no fly away glum blue sea was in there
I wouldn't. They won't.
Again. Known for months.
I hate 4kids much for establishing the name 'Trace'. My name is Ace too so the rage I felt when they changed Ace's name to Trace is unimaginable. Why did they have to do that…:sad:. Is Ace not a good name to them? I hope Al Khan gets testicular cancer.
It was more of an "oh crap there's no commercial press record now" for me.
I thought this new dub was really great overall based on the first episode. Nearly everything (minus name changes) was pretty close to the original script. It's great to have Kohei Tanaka's original (& beautifully orchestrated) music scores back. As far as the voices go, it mostly sounds very similar to the 4Kids dub minus the crappy gags & cliched lines. I know there's the exception of David Moo's Sanji & Nico Robin's southern accent by that other voice actor (don't know her name).
Honestly, I miss Marc Diraison as Zoro. I think he's miles better than what Sabat's doing for him. Sabat sounds like every other character he's done on mostly every other anime he's done. I hear his Zoro & think Daisuke Jigen from the Lupin the 3rd movies. Mind you, I don't think the guy's a talentless hack, his voice is just so saturated on the market (similar to Steve Blum. Great voice, just tirelessly used on almost every anime). It doesn't go without saying that they were some instances were I picked up Trunks in Sanji or Kuririn in Usopp just not as much when I heard Zoro. Holy shit! It's that chain smoker dude! sarcasm
Overall, keep it up & continue to hide/cleanse your sins of anything you've done to Dragon Ball again sarcasm if you're not retarded

it was in there.

Wow. That was fud-diddly-ducking awesome in so many levels. So much so, that Robin's voice almost made me melt into the chair. It was just so… PREFECT.
Oh, and as promised:

Cartoon Network's marketing strategy at work.
"Ok, Bobobo's over, so I'll just change-what the fuck!? Cool music!"
Ao Kiji: No, the "Fly away glum blue sea" was there.
EDIT: Holy shit. Fast thread is fast.

It doesn't help that Chris is using the same voice in Tusbasa for Kurogane, who's essentially the same character as Zoro.
heh heh (tired from going through all the posts)
Dammit! Stop posting so much!
I didn't really even notice Sanji didn't have a lolipop in his mouth until about 10 minutes into the episode. I WANT THE NEXT EPISODE NOW :cwy:! I agree that Sanji and Robin's voices didn't sound close to the original or 4Kids but they're still perfect. I might consider this on par (or better) than the original. I won't think for a second about switching to the Japanese track on the DVDs. I hereby create the religion Funistianity. Funi is my new god .
Wow :blink:. I was moved 2 pages up. I need to learn to type faster.
I hate 4kids much for establishing the name 'Trace'. My name is Ace too so the rage I felt when they changed Ace's name to Trace is unimaginable. Why did they have to do that…:sad:. Is Ace not a good name to them? I hope Al Khan gets testicular cancer.
Don't quote me on this but I do remember reading somewhere once that 'Ace' in some circles can be considered a derogatory term and seeing as 4Kid's likes to appease everyone, even if only 3% or less of the audience would even remotely see the connection, it's not really surprising that they changed it. =/
(Again; DO NOT QUOTE ME if the topic comes up somewhere else. I can't remember where I read this, though I do remember it was from a good source.)
I hate those of you who already got to see the episode so much right now.. xD
I really wish FUNi would have gotten it from the start. We could have had quality like this since the beginning if they had.

knew about the Eneru voice already.Found out a a Neopets One Piece Guild.
from the looks at the reviews I am defintly watching this.
Wow. Just, wow. You did it, Funi.
Personally, I'm a sub-fan for life. Always have been, always will be. Partly cause I study Japanese, and partly because the majority of dubs, from whatever company, pale in comparison to the originals.
HOWEVER, I must give kudos to Funi. From the minute Hikari e started this dub had my FULL attention. I was pleased. My ears didn't bleed. I LAUGHED when the jokes came on (kudos to Usopp to making me laugh the hardest with "aah! skull!"). I ENJOYED it.
I may now watch this dub every week, even though I tend to be rather purist. But this is a dub worth watching. I may drag friends to watch it now. With 4Kids, I pushed them away with all my might.
Now I want to go back in time to the One Piece panel at Otakon and give the staff at Funi one BIG hug. Cause back then, I didn't know it would be this awesome. I was just happy that ANYBODY had taken over from 4Kids.
Holy (&(*^$#!

Colonol mustang as Ace. I just can't imagine that! I sure hope they didn't pick just because of fire.
Sorry for low quality, but I figured some people could enjoy it regardless.

Whoa, I did not know that. Thanks for the informative post…I never knew Ace was considred a derogatory term somewhere. :wassat:, pretty weird.

I'd say it takes some stones to take an amazing show like One Piece and turn it into utter shite.

16 MIGHTY HELL YESES
Just a quick question. Is the "Fly away glum blue sky" the same one from the JP intro? It sounds so similar so I wanna ask before making an assumption.

Haha…Whoops, forgot to take that into account .

If it's not, it's an amazing reproduction.
