I don't post here much anymore and I haven't been following things here that closely. However, I'm curious to see if it's still going to comeback. I know it was replaced by Blue Dragon (I think), but does anyone know when it's coming back?
I'd ask this in the FAQ, but seeing as how the thread was closed…Yeah.
It might, since a commercial for it's DVD being on Toonami is our biggest clue.
According to the Cartoon Network scheduele page, next Saturday the 31st has Ben 10 Alien Force in the 10:00PM timeslot and Samurai Jack in the 10:30PM time slot just like this week.
But Saturday June 7th (which they don't have up, but I checked through see all showings for Ben 10 and Samurai Jack), they still have Samurai Jack at 10:30, but Ben 10 is not in the 10PM time slot anymore. It could either mean that One Piece, Blue Dragon, or some other show is going to that time slot.
Pray for One Piece guys. I have my doubts though.
Eventually. I hope.
Alright thanks. Also another question since I really haven't been following at all except for the manga, when did Funi get the rights to the 4kids early episodes?
We don't really know when they got it, but they got it so just be glad ^_^
And from the looks of it, OP is NOT returning to Toonami. It was at the same convention when they premiered OP uncut, FUni said that Toei and CN decided to cancel it.
_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_

Wait, when was this? And that's it? Totally official?

They came out and said that? I could swear they said something more to the effect that it's between Cartoon Network and Toei instead of CN and Toei decided to cancel it.
There's the slim slim slim slim extremely tiny 0.05 percent chance that it will return to Toonami this summer, but I've learnt over the years not to expect miracles from Cartoon Network.
If that's really the final word, then it's obvious CN isn't the least bit worried, what with their new pirate show (Flapjack…)

If it's not back by September then we can safely say it's cancelled.
It's pretty much in limbo at the moment.
If I recall correctly the last word I heard was basically what DarkShinobi said. Basically, Funi isn't involved in whether or not it's on TV - it's between Funi and Toei.
However I haven't been checking the anime forum very diligently as of late so that's the last thing I saw. If anyone saw anything after this info was discussed, feel free to correct me 
DVDs or not, I'll be really sad if it's really gone from tv. :sad:

Then I apologize, I misunderstood completely. But.. still… I don't think it's coming back XD
TOEI was apart of the decision to cancel it?
Does anyone have anymore information on this?
Whoa whoa, NO, see I was wrong. Funi just said it's between Toei and CN to whether or not it returns to air. I THOUGHT someone said that Toei and CN decided to cancel it.
Thank you for clearing that up, my devilish dainty Demyx devouring devotee.
Those things are hard to write. -_-

That's pretty much my take on it. Though if it's not back by mid-August, then we can pretty much assume it's gone.
Well, at the rate Naruto is going, they're going to have to slow down some time. Only about 16-17 more weeks until they hit Shippuuden. My guess is that OP will be back in the summer, but if it's not, like others said, it's done. Hopefully the DVD sales will help in bringing it back.
Lol, optimism.
What did I tell you guys?
This cannot be true…like come on, CN never cancels any anime that are very long (btw, does anyone know how long fans had to wait for Inuyasha and FMA to conme back, back when they were all new episodes and such)?

Detective Conan is not amused with your statement.
The question should be: when will Toonami die?
The posters in the [AS]/Toonami boards are still looking hopeful. Not to mention the OP megathread there is still a major sticky. I'd expect it back with the new season lineups.

ROFL, you actually think that the posts on a forum mean diddly dick?
Okay, whatever.
The question is valid but I can still hold out hope for the best. If word is true then the DVDs are flying off the shelfs like hotcakes.
I'm surprised an OP ad aired if CN dislikes One Piece so much.
Who knows, maybe it will come back.
It will air when CN gets their heads out of their asses. But good thing FUNimation is releasing uncut dvd's without all that annoying censorship.
The question should be: when will Toonami die?
Yes, Toonami's death is coming slowly…...........
My take on this is that Toei and CN are going to see how the DVD's are selling before they decide if One Piece is worth saving. If the DVDs sell well enough, I'm sure that OP will get it's second wind.
I just pray to god that soccermoms don't bitch about how theres blood and how charaters swear alot when little kids buy the dvd's.
Um, it says "UNCUT" right on the box.
The same goes for Naruto. So, it's safe to say it's soccer mom safe.
So CN aired a commercial for First Voyage during Toonami last night, eh? I was wondering if they would.

March 17, 2007 :getlost:
More like when DID it die?

Why that date? Was that when it moved to Saturday?
No, that was when they unveiled the new Tom and the new look.
That's what I meant.
I was replying to Strongbad.
ROFL, you actually think that the posts on a forum mean diddly dick?
Okay, whatever.
You mean like anything you say?
I'm not taking their word for gospel, just pointing out that they're also hopeful for the return and that the Williams Street folks haven't booted it out of the picture entirely.
It could either mean that One Piece, Blue Dragon, or some other show is going to that time slot.
Well, for what it's worth, Blue Dragon episodes have started airing @ 8am on Saturday mornings. So I doubt, it's coming back to Toonami.
Umm, Blue Dragon has always been airing new every Saturday morning. Both before and during it's run on Toonami.
It'd be cool if it was coming back, but if it isn't coming back by the summer, it isn't coming back. But the DVD ad may be a glimmer of hope.
Well that sucks. Why is it that CN can't even find it in its heart to repeat the episodes they do have?

I dunno.
By the way guys, during "Animal School musical" I saw a commercial for the One Piece dvd.
Guess what guys.
They're going to be playing "Hook" during their premiere for Flapjack. Yes, they're going to be playing another live-action movie, nevermind one that's been played to death on TBS for over 10 years.
God forbid they'd show the One Piece movie…
They're not going to show One Piece, even though they're showing pirate-themed things for the premiere of their new show Flapjack (No, don't start complaining about the quality of that show, GaryPotter, not in this topic).
It's like we One Piece fans continue to be slapped in the face. I still cant believe that the 4Kids dub lasted so long on tv, while FUNi's didn't. Damn them, every single one of –
Okay, I'm done.
