Yeah, I'm not going to tell her what to do when her director might tell her different. She sounds fine to me anyway.
Heading off to bed now. But keep asking questions, and I'll try to get to them come morning. I have errands to do before heading to the con again.
And when this manga closes out, and Luffy's arm stretches back to deliver that last punch, I wanna feel the crunch of the dream coming true.
Although this is an obvious one that doesn't seem like it'd be big, but I wouuld like more info on how they'd do Loguetown's pronunciation. This is a "you never know" kind of thing where they'll leave Loguetown's sign alone but happen to pronounce it Roguetown. XD
Hey, could end up being an honest mistake in the very end. XD
Other than that, is asking about the issue many have with "key characteristics". Mainly with villains. And I'm sure my observation of Zoro's calling of Sanji by name was ignored, save for one person. XD So that'd be nice to make aware in the chance nobody has yet.
-Zera
Wow, this release really WILL make Viz look like crap. I mean, it's been almost six years and they STILL aren't even past Arabasta.

Good point, forget I brought it up.
EDIT:
Wonder where RomanGod went. He might be happy to hear this news.
Oh god, I'm just in a very good mood now with this news. But I still want to attack CN HQ, Enies Lobby style with a dance off. xD
But keep asking questions, and I'll try to get to them come morning. I have errands to do before heading to the con again.
I'm gonna be the only one who'll ask this but what will happen to the version of We ARe that was used during episode 152? I liked it and was wondering if they'd ever release it again.
_For with a closing door, another surely opens
Just you wait and see,
And when you look back on where we've been together
Wherever you may be
I hope that you remember me_
Oh, wow… I guess we're still capable of having some good news. But I'm afraid at this point...
Well, I'll enjoy them when they come out and if they get to be released. But I gotta tell you, things still don't seem... right.
Yeah it still seems odd.. but remember that advanced schedule that showed OP going into reruns?… Maybe they really don't have new episodes. Maybe Funi slowed down the production of the TV episodes to do the DVDs.
I think the DVDs will sell good anyway. I mean if the 4Kids ones did, these should sell just fine.

The 4kids version ? :shocked: ,the 4kids version sold so poorly it was the least selling Shounen Dvd ( even selling worst than Hikaru No Go) ! did I misunderstand ?, I think so !!.
Can you ask whether or not the DVDs will be released here in Australia? If so, when would it most likely be released?
hey guys does anyone know if the uncut dvds will have the crew say swear words like "damn" and "jerk" i hope not cos then i wont be allowed to watch it
When I first read this 2 hours ago, I was so giddy with anticipation, I could have rivaled a paint shaker for how much I was bouncing with glee XD
Also, To address something I saw here:
@LC:
-ONE PIECE dub song CDs. I want 'em. You want 'em. See if the FUNi people have considered them
I already E-mailed Vic Mignogna asking about this (Among other questions) and he told me he didn't know, so he forwarded my E-mail to Caitlin, and she already answered this question for me.
@Caitlin:
The other songs we've recorded for One Piece have not been recorded as full length versions, just TV-length. And also, due to legal reasons, FUNimation is not allowed to release any type of soundtrack with the English songs. Sorry to disappoint you!
Also, just to add that, I also asked if the Lyrics to the English "We Are" that Vic was going to be singing were going to be the same inaccurate ones that were in the Knock-Up-Stream episode, or if they were going to use more faithful to the Japanese Ones, here was her answer:
@Caitlin:
In regards to the snippet of We Are you heard in that one episode- that is not the version that will be on the DVDs of the first season. At the time, we were under deadline and the usual music adapting team wasn't able to adapt it yet. But rest assured, the version on the DVD is much more faithful to translation.
@LC:
-I know it's a little early, but ask them politely if they have any good ideas for "You-Know-Who"s VA. Yohohoho! (I know it's really, really far away, but if Unlimited Cruise comes stateside, they'll have to pull a Franky again)
! Just my opinion here, but considering he seems to be singing all the male-sung songs in the Show, Vic Mignogna would make a GREAT brook! His work on Bleach as Ikkaku shows he can do a lower toned voice than what he regularly sounds like (since Brook's Seiyuu has a somewhat deeper voice) and since he's the musician, it would work because we already know Vic can sing!!
Now, about Questions I'd like to be asked at the con:
Can someone ask if the DVD Cover art we have for OP on Most Websites is the final version or not?
It's a decent art choice, and a nice background and everything, but the placement of the characters is rather poor, IE Zoro was made HUGE in the background, so he looks like the main Villain or something.
Also, I'd like to know how far into production of Season 1 they are. Like What Episode they're working on now.
Oh, and I want to know about the "Season" Designation for the DVDs, like where Does Season 1 end, and Season 2 begin for Example? I only ask this because of 2 things:
Number 1: the 4kids Dub cut approx 39 Episodes worth of material out, so around Episode 104, the beginning of CN's "Season 3" was really something like episode 145.
And Number 2: Toei already has a rather Nice season List, that actually also fits the story Arcs.
So I want to know where they're drawing the "Season" Lines?
Personally, I'd like if they Followed Toei's Season Designations. It would be a lot less confusing (what with the 40 Extra episodes they would have to account for otherwise)
According to my Copy of One Piece: Rainbow, Toei's Seasons go as follows:
! 1st Season: East Blue Chapter - 1 ~ 62
2nd Season: Entering The Grand Line Chapter - 63 ~ 77
3rd Season: Enter Chopper at the Winter Island Chapter - 78 ~ 92
4th Season: Arrival At Arabasta Chapter & Arabasta Kingdom Chapter - 93~130
5th Season: Rainbow's Edge Chapter - 131 ~ 143
6th Season: Sky Island~Skypiea Chapter & Sky Island~The Golden Bell Chapter - 144 ~ 195
7th Season: Escape! The Naval Fortress & The Foxy Pirate Crew Chapter - 196 ~ 228
8th Season: Water Seven Chapter - 229 ~ 263
9th Season: Enies Lobby Chapter - 264 ~ Present
! NOTE1: For Some reason, Arabasta and Skypiea were split into 2 halves each for the DVD release, and thusly were given 2 titles, but It doesn't specify in Rainbow where the splits actually take place during each. Also, strange enough, Jaya isn't one of the splits, the splits are "Skypiea" and "The Golden Bell"
! NOTE2: The East Blue arc was actually the only Season to not have a title listed with it, but since it's obviously the East Blue arc, I called it that so it wouldn't look out of place, being the only one without a title. Also, the Rainbow Mist arc was given 3 designations, but listed in sections instead of all together at the title area, so I chose the one that best described it and used that one.
! NOTE3: Info for season 9 came from CD Japan, since Rainbow came out before the S9 DVDs started coming out. And obviously, the series is past Enies Lobby by now, but the Season designations and titles are all made for the DVD release, and the DVDs in Japan are currenly still in the middle of EL, so I have no Idea where the 9th season ends.
(it's a long list, so Spoiler'd for convenience)
@jigijigi: FUNi doesn't own the Australian Rights to OP, Madman Entertainment does. Madman just has an agreement with FUNi so they can use their dub, like they did for Dragon Ball. FUNi won't know the Australian DVD info at all, but I assume if Madman released the FUNi dub of DB over there on uncut Bilingual DVDs, they'll do the same with One Piece. In fact, they TRIED back in the 4kids days, they even had a tentative deal with 4kids so that 4kids would produce an uncut Dub for them to put on their DVDs, but for some reason the deal fell through.
@Mele: well… Jerk isn't a curse word... in fact, I've seen other, non-anime shows on Cartoon network use the word Jerk... And, they've already confirmed at conventions that words like Damn, Hell, Bitch, Ass and Bastard can and may appear, while Shit and the F-bomb probably won't. Plus, on the Movie 8 DVD, Chopper says "Damn you bastards", and Luffy says "Kick Crocodile's Ass" in the dub, so yes, it's 100% confirmed there will be some swearing.

Since when is "Jerk" a swearword? Besides, they've even said stuff like that in the TV-broadcast, so obviously that'll be on the DVD.
EDIT: Didn't notice that it had already been answered…

Something that might bring you guys some hope about the state of the TV dub (it worked for me, anyways): CN's schedule says that they are airing One Piece every weekday at 8:30 am. Why they put it in that spot, I don't know, but they are quickly catching up to where the TV dub left off on Toonami. By this Friday, they'll be up to "A Trap on Lovely Street! His Highness Eneru!" Hopefully, by the time they get up to the start of the survival game, some new episodes will have aired.
I've got a question!
How far along is dubbing of both seasons? Also, I think the seasons'll be broken up like this: Season One being sets 1-4, and Season Two sets 5-11 (seven sets).

Anything else you wanted asked, Yuugi?
Hopefully next year if/when I have a license or a car. Heck, I've never been to a con before so I'd probably get lost or something.
As for questions, I know bloopers were mentioned, but what about audio commentaries? Also, can it be reaffirmed that it was not a misread that DVDs will come out every 6-8 weeks? Something like that seems awfully strange considering how busy FUNimation must be. And if legality issues a preventing CD releases what about downloads?

Judging by your Location under your pic, I'm guessing this is in Canada? because the US CN Schedule doesn't say anything about 8:30 AM, but that would be wonderful if true!!
And if Canada is really getting a rapid showing, maybe someone could TV rip those for us!!!

Six to eight weeks was said straight to my face. And while I have a bad memory, that was too good of a memory to forget.
And yes, Sakura Con at the Convention Center here is a pretty big and confusing place. So yeah, you'll get lost. Last year there were nine thousand people, and now there's fourteen thousand people, and it's only going to be bigger next year.
Also, for people wondering about the Luffy shirt where his face/front is printed on the side of the t-shirt. If you wanted to know if it looked funny - it doesn't. It just plain doesn't. In fact, it's over fucking nine thousand.
Heading out now.
And when this manga closes out, and Luffy's arm stretches back to deliver that last punch, I wanna feel the crunch of the dream coming true.
I'm pretty sure this is in the US. Go to cartoonnetwork.com, click on "TV Schedule" in the top right corner, and go to Friday.
EDIT: That's weird… The schedule was set up differently when I checked it about an hour ago. It had pictures for the shows, it didn't list anything past 4:30, and it went up to next Sunday instead of Saturday. Then again, it said that One Piece had been airing at 8:30 am on weekdays since at least last week, where it had started off with the Funimation episodes. I don't know what's going on.
EDIT: Sorry guys, but somehow (I don't know how this happened), I was looking at the New Zealand schedule, which is weird, since I typed in cartoonnetwork.com. I apologize for getting your hopes up.
thanks for getting my hopes up -_-
I had stayed up a little longer. . .
Hmm. DVDs every six to eight weeks? SWEET! That might explain why CN might have not gotten a batch of episodes all right.

So there was no uncut TV airing? Oh great! Looks like I need to edit the title of this thread.

What the fuck? Dude! One Piece was cancelled on YTV because of low ratings. And it was the 4Kids dub to boot! There is no indication of One Piece coming back onto Canadian television in the near future.

I have to quote Ed the Sock here…
Don't want your kids to hear this? Well, unless you have a magic bubble to put them in, chances are they are going to learn every last word before recess!

As long as the CN fiasco doesn't screw this up, I'm a happy camper.

I actually think that every 4 sets (52 episodes) would be considered as one season, it makes more sense and is conistent.
Yeah, I was going to mention that set twelve (144-157) could be considered the tail end of Season Three but then that would make 158+ Season Four, and as we all know, the TV version is well into the 160s.

i missed all the giddyness.
DUNNO IF ANYONE POINTED THIS OUT, but at the rate they plan to release the dvds, thats more episodes then we'd get on tv, cuz 13 eps per dvd > 6-8 eps.
awesome. shame about not showing any eps tho.
Well, I feel better. Dunno how I'm gonna pay for all this, tho.
That acutally makes me feel much better.
Well, I feel better. Dunno how I'm gonna pay for all this, tho.

Senshi I cracked up at your sig. Did you write that?
Yup, I wrote it a long time ago. When 4Kids was still dubbing, we were wondering what would happen when they got to Drum Island. We all joked and said they'd turn him into a gangsta' reindeer, and then I said they'd make him rap. And that's how it started.

Nice, you forgot Nami though….
http://viscaria3.blogspot.com/. Best thing since Phoenix Wright!!
6-8 weeks on the dvds is great. What is CN starts back from the first one, then it would not be "new" epids and their statement would not be a lie.
Nice, you forgot Nami though….
Don't suggest him to rewrite it, that is a part of board history.
@AWB:

I've only got one thing to say in response to that:
Yeah, I'm tired of freeloading, not to mention money is tight. I've been trying to find a job for a year now, but most places don't want you underage. I'll be 18 in 7 months, so hopefully the hunt gets easier.
Yeah. I really want to earn the money myself and not be a freeloader but Im 15 and it is hard to find a job that can accept someone my age. Probably and hopefully when I am 16 I can get a job and not leech.
