My boss at Beckett has informed me that since airring on the 4Kids lineup and CN (and I'm sure by no coincidence entering the arc which first shows that this isn't an average story) OP's ratings have improved and will begin to receive more coverage. Still no exact numbers.

Do you mean 4Kids TV's ratings have improved, or Toonami's ratings have improved? Or both? I know that Toonami's ratings have been good so far, but not the Saturday morning ratings.

Even though the 4Kids version is terrible, it's nice in my eyes to see OP do well ratings wise.
-
I'm not happy by this news. I was hoping it would get dropped like Card Captors and get released subbed only :(
Or at least be picked up by Funimation halfway like Dragonball Z.

[snapback]76283[/snapback]Same here dude… let's just hope they don't screw Oda's work up....

Well, 4kids so look for kids-friendly version. OP promotes friendship so i won't be surprised that its continues on forever. I just pray that when it come to the 2nd OP for the jap version, they do not spoil it. They did not pass it yet did they?
-
Anyways, no matter how bad the dub is, it just proves that OP has a great storyline with great characters. (Now I have another argument for me to proof to my friend that OP > Naruto :P)

I think Believe becomes the opening on the 2nd episode of the Buggy mini-story(which 4kids is unfortunately skipping), so if they are gonna use Believe or a new opening alltogether, we'll see it on the first episode of Louge Town.
I think that they're going to keep ONE PIECE MOTHERFUCKA ONE PIECE for quite some time though. <_<

oh boy. dammit , can't them just leave it in jap?

die 4kids die,

[snapback]76553[/snapback]I agree that OP is better than Naruto. Nothing I've seen in Naruto even comes close to topping the excellent Arlong Arc, but I have reason to believe that when Naruto gets it's English release people will be like:
"Oh My Gawd!1111!!!!1111 Naruto has ninjazzzzz!1111!!! It roxxors my boxxors!111!!!1111!! I have to watch it instead of 0ne Piece11111!!!!111!!!
Narutards really piss me off -_-

[snapback]76644[/snapback]They're skipping the mini arc?! Not fair! That was one of my fave parts!

How much of OP do 4kids own? Have they bought the entire series, or the first 50 or so episodes?
Also does anyone know generally how long a company has distribution rights of an anime before it expires? I hope it's not long.

[snapback]77097[/snapback]I can't agree more when they say OP is no good when they haven't even barely read past the kuro arc <_<

[snapback]77140[/snapback]**_Even if it expires, they will most like renew it and get the renewed license.

Unless One Piece ratings are just so-so.

I love both series personaly. They have three of my favorite things: Action and comedy with a small dose of agnst. Just because one had ninjas and the other has pirates just makes me laugh insanly because I love both equaly. A friend of mine has asked which I like more and we've had a 10 minute argument that went like this:
Friend: Which do you like better? Ninjas or pirates?
Me: I like both.
Friend: You can't like both! Pick one!
Me: …I like both...
Friend: No! You have to pick one!
Me: But I like them both!
Friend: Just pick one!
Me: ...Ninja-Pirates?
Friend: Facepalm NO!Which is why I am now looking for a Ninja-Pirate crew, but that's not the point...Anyway, I think CN should just take away all the edits and put it on Adult Swim. That would do the series the most good._
