OK first lemme say I know this topic is kinda pointless because everyone here knows this & will say to me "of course you silly noob" but I must say it.
I just watched my first subbes episode of OP & I loved the Theme song, before today I knew the 4KIDS one was lame cause of the rap but it was tolerable because it was catchy but man, the Jap one just blows the American one out of the water. It rocks my socks.

Congratulations Gozar, you made it to the next level. :laugh:
Just kidding, but I´m honestly happy for you because you know have opened a door to a whole new and much better One Piece experience. Have fun with it! 
Yes, and you know what? It gets better and better, while the dub gets worse and worse.

Altough there are some arc which are a little boring such as the filler arcs and maybe Kuro arc, but as CosmicDebris said the original One Piece just keeps getting better and better.

haha, ya, it's acctually kool to watch (& read) the most acurate stuff, this is the first time for me with Anime that I have started out my fandom of it watching & reading the most acurate stuff….with DBZ I was a dubbie for a while until I started reading the Manga.

One of us, one of us, one of us, one of us.
Just kidding, welcome to the world of One Piece subs though. It's a world that you can't leave yet you don't want to.
You'll get a full emotional impact if you watch the sub, where as the dub you just want to sometimes ask WTF!
of course u silly noob! 
yeah the sub version is wayyyyy better (tho ive only seen the hk subs.
LOL the hk subs can be so stupid "They(Eneru) turn him into steam(crisp) quick haisjin(Sanji) lets use our feet and kick" their translations are horrible. Yah so try to stay away from hk-subs.

A Dubbie! Converted! cries with joy
Well done! Just make sure you watch all the skipped episodes, and avoid the 4kids version from now on ^^
Hey, I love the Kuro arc. That's what hooked me on the show. I almost thought I might stop watching after episode 8.

Oh wait my bad I was thinking of the dub since I watched the dub first then the subs. Yah the dub really screwed me over. Was watching the Kuro arc dub and I thought to myself wow One Piece can really drag on. And then the next week I slept in and missed 5 mins and I was like wtf since they already beat Kuro and his crew during those 5mins like wth who beats a boss in the beginning of an ep! And I was ticked off with One Piece and stuff, until I met the subs of course

And another cool thing about subs are you can download them all at once or at your own pace meaning you can binge on anime for a week straight if you want meaning sleep is for the weak! 
Just be glad that its not alcohol and just anime!
LOL you thought it was sarcasm, well don't worry cause everything up till NOW is the truth…..(cause you are one of us now…muahahaha) JK
Heh, well I am happy to be "one of you", it's for the best anyway, it's one thing to watch & enjoy a dub, but you can get mocked if you try to use the dub as fact & I speak from personal experience.
I also love the Kuro Arc, it's so kool when Luffy Fights Kuro, I like it when he tells Kuro off about the whole Crew thing & then hrabs him & does the Gomu Gomu Bell I think it was.
Yah Luffy finished off Kuro with the Gomu Gomu no Bell, but I'm still wondering if luffy beat him in the beginning of the episode. AhhH man can't remember, my brain hurts!

I'm not sure I missed that episode, but I saw it in the Manga.

Well, honestly, One Piece can drag on a bit. Especially Skypiea. But it's ok, a few little slow parts in an otherwise fast moving (IMO) great story isn't bad.
And I hated the Kuro arc in the dub. Mostly because of the horrid shock I got from hearing Usopp's dub voice for the first time. :wacko: In the Japanese version, Usopp's appearance totally hooked me, in the dub, it totally killed it for me. XD
Yah well its okay if One piece drags on in the original, but in the dub, well…
no story line+no emotions+horrible VAs+that drags on=Bad show!

I like some of the VA's for the dub, such as Zoro's

Well you don't have to worry about the One Piece dub draging on anymore since 4Kids is skipping and merging episodes left and right everything will be shorter. And some of you hated the dub by the Kuro arc already? I wish it stayed at that quality. Now look at where it is….
Waddya mean, you mean they're gonna bassically take out all filler scenes & mend episodes together?
Well thats the jist of it I guess. Its weird tough, in the beginning they kept it quite original as they can then after Arlong park they just started merging and skipping like theres no tomorrow!
But you shouldn't worry about that Gozer since now you watch the subs!
PS: Where did you think everyone started to hate the dub, RomanGod?

True, the blood, the cursing, it's better.
No, I'm just stating that I wish the dub did at least stay at Kuro arc level. Then we'd have a not so good dub instead of a completely crap dub. Of course I'd wish it got the best dub in the world. But if the whole dub remained like the early episodes then I won't complain much.
Okay I have no idea what this topic is about anymore so I'll just conclude by saying to all you dub noobs to start watching subs and start experiencing the true One Piece! Like what Gozar did!!! (…one of us, one of us…) LOL jk

Hhehhehe, you don't need to even be joking I am one of you, I am teh subby-ness =P
Waddya mean, you mean they're gonna bassically take out all filler scenes & mend episodes together?
That's what they HAVE been doing! They skipped 5 story arcs already, and merged so many, that they're over 30 episodes short of the Japanese version at the point they're at now.
Hhehhehe, you don't need to even be joking I am one of you, I am teh subby-ness =P
Okay good cause I didn't want to offend you in anyway, just needed make some jokes
Off topic: To all you Canadians yah I know I'm late, but I'll say it anyway, floods can make weird holes like DBZ style holes! Like the aftermath of a Kamehameha!

I don't know if that could offend anyone anyway
I think you'll get hooked around the Baratie Arc, because that arc really got me into One Piece. Some great action in that arc.
Already read it. I'm up to the Luffy Vs.Arlong Fight
I don't know if that could offend anyone anyway
Well the "One of us" could refer too to as joining a cult and may give some people bad memories or a "just don't wanna be in one" situation. Anyway I'm going in over my head right now, so I'll just shut up now and once again say that its okay to read the manga and watch the subs instead of the stupid 4kids crap dub.

Altough there are some arc which are a little boring such as the filler arcs and maybe Kuro arc, but as CosmicDebris said the original One Piece just keeps getting better and better.
Kuro was just… the worst villian EVER to be honest... well besides Krieg of course. I really didn't like either of them. I mean they were just SO lame. Gin would have made a better villian than Krieg and Jango would have made a better villian than Kuro.
So sad when the sidekick's are actually cooler than the villians...
What? Gin was a lameass, Kreig, though lame has his kool points, & I loved Kuro.
Hey, hey now…I loved Kuro. He was my favorite villain next to Jango up until I got to Mr. 2, and now CP9. :eviltongu
Eh? I didn't really like Kuro… then again up until the BW members I didn't really like any of the villians... they just seemed lame. Heck I didn't even like Buggy until Louge Town when I got more used to him being around.

I really started to watch it non stop when the Luffy pirates were in Louge town because it looked like all the characters were getting stronger, and I just couldn't wait to see the story progress more (then that filler arc spoiled my mood :P). Now I can't wait to see what happens in the story line I'm on now (the skypiea arc).
spoiler alert
Are the Luffy Pirates going to face the black beard pirates when they get back? Will Luffy be able to fight the power of a god to get his nakama back… Tune in on the next piece of One Piece!!!
God sometimes I just want to be spoiled...
Thank you snow_yeti for the awesome av/sig <3
You know what I never understood? Why didn't K-F keep in the episode previews? I mean sure they spoil the next episode somewhat but the episode previews are pretty funny in some anime's. I can just imagine how wacky some of the One Piece one's are.
Kuro is an ass but he's kool…..Kreig is sorta funny when he gets mad though.
This thread makes me happy. ^__^ Congradulations!!
Kuro was the one who made me fall in love with OP. Before I had thought OP to be 'cartoony' and pretty much just slightly above average American cartoons. His utter and sickening deception of Kaya made me go "Whoa…. this series has an edge on it... " and I was hooked.

Personally, I don't like the previews. For the epsides that are humorous, they're alright, but for the more serious episodes, they seem really out of place. Like in Water 7.
BTW about Blackbeard…he hasn't been seen since they took off for Skypiea. Maybe after the current arc he'll turn up again. It seems about time, we still don't know what the outcome of the Shanks/Whitebeard meeting was.
I think it would be a nice time to animate the Ace mini-story too.
I admit I can't say for the subs, but the translated manga, I always found the Kuro story a bit over-convoluted. He doesn't mind killing his entire crew, but he needs to get Kaya hypnotised to throw together a bogus will (forgery is beyond him? O.o). The action isn't bad, the Usopp story is excellent, but I feel like Kuro's either too smart for his own good or nowhere near as smart as everyone assumes.

Well, why risk forgery when you have a hypnotist? 
He just wanted to live in peace in the village, and he couldn't do that if there was any suspicion that he was guilty of murder.
BUT HE IS A MURDER, lol.
you mean murderer, right?
BUT HE DOESN'T WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW THAT. XD

Well they rip the DVDs, I'm not sure if there are previews on those
