One Piece on Daisuki.net

ChibiGoku

Well, given the previous message in the FUNimation thread kinda got ignored, figured I'd make a thread about this. Essentially, a new website streaming platform, known as Daisuki, will be starting up in April and will begin streaming anime, old and new alike. This includes plans to streamed simulcasts, as well as "live" broadcasts and events. Various Japanese companies have signed on board for the project and a couple of shows were mentioned. One of them mentioned in it is One Piece.

WTK, over at Fandom Post, had recently sent an email to Daisuki and got back the following reponse:

Hello,

thank you for your mail!

Regarding your question:
DAISUKI will be available world-wide, so the service area of DAISUKI will also cover non-English areas.

Thank you.

Best Regards,

DAISUKI Team

So while this does not completely confirm that One Piece will be streamed absolutely everywhere, it is looking good for people overseas that want to view the series.

Cool only thing I want to know is if it is avalable on PC, consoles, or TV

And if it is a monthly subscription type thing

And if it will have dubs

This is something I'm waiting to hear as well. Given the mention of "fees", I'd have to assume some sort of subscription plan will be available. Hopefully they won't got the "Rental" route, since that method will not fly over here. The only time it even worked was with Xam'd, and I'm pretty sure that was an exception, not the rule.

I'm hoping its be like Crunchyroll and hulu. If not I'm sticking with Hulu for One Piece.

Thanks to Firecrouch for getting this moved to a more appropriate section. Figured more foreigners would see this here.

At this point, what I'm wondering about is if we're not going to find any information until the service launches. There really isn't much time until April, so hopefully something gets announced soonish, clarifying if this is completely world wide (barring Japan). That, and I am curious what other shows they plan to offer at this point.

I don't even care if I have to pay for it, that at least will make me feel like I'm contributing to One Piece in a way. If this will happen it will be awesome! I hope it'll air in Europe!

Monogatari

I hope it comes to Latin America.

Bumping this up! One Piece has launched on Daisuki, but for the time being, it's just the catalog episodes. You can check them out here. Apparently the streaming regions are as follows: "Canada, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, USA and India"

Surprising that UK and Australia/New Zealand are not included.
