On Friday May 30th at 6:00 PM, Australian Cartoon Network will be airing the One Piece movie.
Thanks to Ceestar for finding this information (is it okay that I'm linking to the image BTW?). It is NOT known if it will be uncut or using the 4Kids names or not, but there it is. I'm actually very curious as to whether or not it will be uncut since it'd be the first time the dub would be allowed to use words like "ass" and "damn". Also curious about Zoro and what not.
Image is not appearing.
EDIT: Oh, okay. Now it is.
Anyways, wonder how the edit will be.
Well, good for Australians. Of course, US CN still won't… whatever.
Weird, I was just skimming through the Foxtel mag this afternoon and saw that.
Thought it would've been OLD news here by now, guess not.
Honestly if the worst that happens is I never have to hear Zolo or Merry Go again, I am fine with that. (in response to Roman)

Yes I was very surprised to not find a topic.
I guess we don't have enough Aussie fans on this board.
This sounds like it's going to be fun.
More than likely gonna be edited, FUNi said they made an edited version alongside the uncut just like the episodes. Of course Australia is most likely gonna use that cut.
I'm sorry, can you back that up? I don't think FUNimation made an edited version of movie 8
I believe they said it at some panel a few months back.
Yeah I believe someone questioned Mike and then they posted the info here somewhere.
Yep, he said they made an edited version right alongside the uncut. They're probably doing that with every One Piece production under their helm. (in other words: not video games) FUNi wants One Piece to air on TV, all of it. I bet you they recorded an edited version of First Voyage.

If FUNi did any edits for the movie at all, it was voice edits… ...as for blood, cigarettes, etc, that would be CNs sensoring, or possibly a different company, not FUNi. Not everything Mike says is true... ...that rumor about slipping in a cigarette... an entirely different department handles video editing and I know they didnt touch the movie. It was merely an accident that made his rumor appear true.

No, it would make no sense to pay millions of dollars to remove blood and cigarettes on a show that may or may not ever air on US TV again. Besides, Im sure the plan is that if they air 1-143 on TV again, they would use FUNi audio (which may be edited for TV), and 4kids video… ...meaning hello lollipop.

You ARE aware that that would be completely impossible, right? FUNi would dub all the episodes completely, only cutting out the stuff they CAN'T show, whereas 4Kids cut out FORTY EPISODES of content, although several of the things they cut was completely child-friendly. (Buggy's mini-arc, anyone?)

Maybe, but in the commentary, they were talking about how it was a relief that they only had to record one set of names for the DVD, unlike what happened for the broadcast, implying that they only made one set on lines for the first episodes unless they were flat-out lying.
Like the Avatar? / Like the Miis?

Nah, they probably figured that the old episodes are too old to ever be put on TV again, so it wasn't worth doing. Even Jetstream will hopefully not need to restart One Piece for a very long time…
It's not like Jetstream actually works for anyone anyway..
@Lobster:

Really? It works for me… A bit slow unless I'm on a good connection, but it works...

Then they would have to edit those 40 episodes… ..but the rest they wouldnt. And they wouldnt ever begin to do that unless they can confirm that those episodes would air. TOEI pays FUNi to edit for broadcast... ...theyre not going to pay them to edit something they already paid for (4kids) And theres no need to unless they were to re air something like that. In other words theres no need for CN... ...but say hell freezes over and it starts airing on Nicktoons, they may start with episode 144, or start way back at the beginning.
Since they already recorded audio for the DVD its easy to edit audio and put it with the 4kid video TOEI gives them. Its faster and cheaper
…
You're an idiot, aren't you?
Yes, he is. Yes he is. And that is sad in my opinion.

A million facepalms wouldn't be enough for this statement.

"She"
And would any of you like to tell me why this is all foolish?
We would all like to not see Sanji's lolipop, but it makes no sense to pay millions of dollars to re edit something thats already been edited.
You are aware of the several edits and cuts that 4Kids made that would make it impossible for the audio to sync up right?
and Toei didn't pay 4Kids to edit anything, that's not how it works.
Not to mention it reeks of laziness and unprofessionalism.

You forget that the people at FUNi have mad skillz and they could make it work. They have ways. Worse case scenario is that they would have to record a separate voice track, which they might do anyway if they have to keep broadcast names and eliminate curse words.
and Toei didn't pay 4Kids to edit anything, that's not how it works.
Well thats how it works in FUNiland. Infact TOEI has to approve everything that gets edited… ...not sure if that was the case for 4kids being that I cant imagine their work ever getting approval. But before this "hiatus" I remember hearing that was the plan. FUNi wouldnt edit the video, which means that for broadcast TOEI would have to provide them with it. And Im assuming thats where theyre getting it.
But that all would never happen unless they were to rerun previous episodes, and by doing so, re-air all. If for some unknown reason they were to reair random stuff, Im sure CN would just use whatever copy they already had, which of course would be full 4kids.

Ugh, do we have to spell it out? 4Kids's edits were far worse than just cutting out a scene or two, or completely removing episodes. They rearranged several scenes and merged episodes together, like how they included both the end of Whisky Peak and the start of the Drum-arc in the same episode, even though there was an entire arc inbetween that they just ignored entirely. IT'S IMPOSSIBLE FOR FUNI TO DO A PROPER DUB WITH THE 4KIDS-VIDEO-TRACK, AND EVEN IF IT WASN'T, THEY STILL WOULDN'T DO IT. END OF DISCUSSION. Not to mention the Laboon-arc, where they threw the original plot out of the window, and made it look like the only thing blocking them was an iceberg, which Luffy then proceeded to blow up. Now, as last week's episode showed, the Laboon-arc is absolutely vital to the story later on, so that's another reason why what you suggested will NEVER happen. Ever.
UmmYeahOk, how incredibly dense are you to believe that FUNimation would actually do something so stupid as to use 4Kids footage for some sort of edited TV dub? If anything FUNimation is more likely to just ask for the episodes to air uncut.
She/Her
UmmYeahOk… It's time to stop now. Continuing after what we just told you would only say to us that you just don't want to admit you were wrong.
It was silly. You know this deep inside.
Um, yeah okay. Anyway this sounds awesome! Would love to see how it'd turn out. But I guess it was too much to hope for it to not be on pay tv. Maybe someone will youtube it.
This shemale person truly is an idiot. I was gonna give it my time, but nah. It already ruined itself.
Speaking of shemales. I still want to say how much I enjoy Funi's new voices for the Barqoue Works agents. They are just fantasic in my opinion.
Ok look, you guys probably know a lot more about One Piece than I do. That I'll admit. But I probably know a lot more about what goes on behind FUNis doors than you guys do.
Go to ToonZone and see every "prediction" I have made about the show before it ever aired. Each and every time a fan would call me an idiot… ...but like it or not eventually everything I said happened to the show.
Still don't believe me? Give me your most checked email address, and I'll submit to you proof of exactly who I am. But if you do, you must promise never to refer to me here or anywhere by my real name. Mostly because some of the things I know are suppose to be kept secret. I just dont know what is and what isn't (and what I said earlier probably still is). So just incase I leak anything out by accident, I dont want to get in trouble. Because believe it or not, FUNi does visit fan forums. How else are they suppose to know what fans want? Conventions?
Okay I PMed you my email address.
… uh... wow I have no idea who you are... and I can send emails from different email addresses too =P

Your argument sounds too flimsy to believe on your own even if you're some mighty insider. And why should we look up YOUR posts on another forum? It's YOU who have to CONVINCE US. Haven't you done this before? Some links would be nice. I don't buy this whole "Use 4Kids Video with Funi Audio bit". It sounds plausible, but incredibly lazy. And considering all the edits 4Kids made, it would probably be even CHEAPER for Funi to edit the series like they have been instead of spending money on syncing the two completely different versions.
already emailed you again about that.

Well the reason I dont want to be flat out public about it is because I could lose my job. Thats why I have to give stupid hints and predictions. What I said earlier though about 4kids stuff, was information I was told back in 2007… ...things could easily change by then
Yeah well if you are who you say you are… that's that. But I kind of still don't believe it =P
I still won't post it, but I have to ask, what are you doing here anyway? O_o Why sign up here?
The idea of FUNi using the 4Kids video footage is just asinine. That would cause even more work for them because then they'd have to make more audio edits and change the story due to all the edits to the story that 4Kids made.
Oh god you guys I just thought of something.
As the above post says:

Which means… we shouldn't put it past Toei to make Funi do something like that.

So this whole "air the episodes with the 4Kids edits and Funi audio" was thought about last year?

Toei's done some crazy things, but that would seem odd even for them. Why would they want FUNi to use the footage that helped cause One Piece to get horrible ratings to start with?
Why use Loftra for the Shandians? Why Gravity Blue Riders? Why tell Funi to put Zolo in the credits of the uncut Alabasta DVD?
All of those are incredibly stupid as well. I don't really believe it would happen. All I'm saying is I wouldn't put it past them. I also wonder if Toei told Funi to use only the gold logo for One Piece.
True enough. But either way, I really doubt we'll ever see FUNi using 4Kids footage.
In fact, I don't even think FUNi would have the rights to that. I'm pretty sure their edited footage would be 4Kids intellectual property.
I'd have to boycott OP on TV if they used 4Kids footage with their audio.
I'm super-duper serial.
Same here but Toei seems to like to tell us what we want instead of listening to us.
THAT sounds like something FUNi would fight tooth-and-nail to get changed.
in All honesty, if they had the ability to go back and Put Laboon and Little Garden Back in, there is NO REASON not to take it!!
that would Make…
! Enies Lobby and Thriller Bark A LOT less confusing!

Simple, as you see, I signed up in Feburary. I only started getting interested in One Piece when FUNI took over in September. Thats why you all know more about the show than I do. So far I have only seen what FUNi has done, which is why I know FUNi didnt edit the video in the movie because I would have seen it myself(some other company might edit it though).
Ive been on ToonZone since 2003 because I like cartoons, and didnt know about this forum until the famous cigarette slip up. I started monitering this forum because unlike ToonZone you all nit pick EVERYTHING. And I wanted to know if I was doing a good/bad job. This is very hard because if I do a good job, fans may not notice or say anything. But all and all I guess its better than 4kids, so I guess thats a positive.
Okay I guess what I mean is why are you here risking your job? And why do you trust just anyone? All I have to do is post your name here and you get fired right? Why risk it?
