Should be getting season five voyage 2 and 3 and wolf children in the mail this week
Whats wrong with USPS? No updates since 19th. If I don't get it tomorrow, I'll have to report my set lost. The waiting is killing me.
Finally got the set. Stupid USPS. Gonna watch the first three episodes if I get the time tonight. All my free time has been devoted to this new (amazing) Zelda game.
Got mine also

Have you been checking the Tracking number? It might still be in-transit, maybe it's taking a different route which is most likely delaying it more than usual. That's what happened to me :sad:.
@Have:
I've been checking everyday… twenty times a day. All it said is "Shipment Accepted, Grimes, IA Nov 19, 2013" and no updates since them.
My order said the 19th first too.
But now its out of stock for some reason..
Still it says order reserved and it will ship wednesday.
Sooooo my head is spinning like crazy and thinking: What the…..
I just finished watching the whole set. I loved it.
I was annoyed when I watched "In the Booth". As mentioned, it's just "On the Boat with Brina Palencia".
As for Merry's funeral, to date still have not cried, but felt Merry's funeral was done best in English. Then again, what do I know.
Last note, Jet Gatling was amazing!
@Mikey:
As amazing as that would be, Maile Flanagan doesn't do much anime work outside of Naruto. Besides, she's located in California, so I'm going to say no.
But… FUNimation has a huge pool of actors. I'm thinking Brittney Karbowski (think Black*Star from Soul Eater), Brina Palencia (think Georgie from Crayon Shin-Chan), or even Laura Bailey (but I don't think she works much for FUNi anymore) could pull it off just as well, if not better.
Not to mention Maile Flanagan also does live action work for Disney XD with their show Lab Rats as the principal (having Naruto as your high school principal, even when she talks naturally all you hear is Naruto-v-;; ), but your choices are not bad, calling/wishingitnowLauraBaileywill/mustdoHancock.

Crap! I always wait until the last second to order and this time I'm really late. Least I have you guys for the heads up.
Finally got my set, and watched it right away. That was some good One Piece.
All 8 One Piece collection are on sale right now on Rightstuf sale for 16.44 each. So if you are missing a set this is your chance to get them.
Quick question, do you guys know if Episode 0 is included in the strong world dvd release? has it even been dubbed?

A while ago i saw on facebook that Colleen said she was now doing the extra's for dvd/bluray releases.
i don't know if she is the only one in FUNimation doing this.
She told this on FB and if we wanted something in those extra's for future releases, we could give her advice etc…
So in other words it could be a bit her fault.
I'm just guessing what the problem may be.
Any thoughts?
While it's true that she's currently handling special features it's not like she's the one encoding all the information on the actual discs so I'm not gonna point fingers. For all we know there was a special feature made for the release that someone messed up on adding properly. There's literally no point in even speculating that Colleen is at fault.

The question is who… we'll see on voyage 5 if its happening again

Did anyone let Funi or Colleen know this happened?
Did anyone let Funi or Colleen know this happened?
Sent a complaint to productconcerns@funimation.com, letting them know what happened and asking that they add disc art to the next movie releases. Hopefully they will fix this mistake, at least for the collections
Did anyone see the new movie that that came out? How was it? Strong World that is? Thanks
@Lil:

It was great. Go buy it now.
Yes! My Voyage 4 came in the mail and is in my hands now. I'm going to watch it soon. I'm very excited for this one, and I know the parts with Merry feels will be hard for me to get through. :'(
The Luffy vs Lucci fight will be awesome! :D
I just finished the set.
Speechless…
I hope that oda did the same thing after the ussopp vs luffy and stretch this merry thing.
(Don't want to know untill i see the next few eps)
Still it would totally be praised by me.
o yeah... speechless.....speechless.......speechless
Well just finished episode 312 I came close but still didn't cry at that moment it was very moving tho I did shed a tear.
^ I cried, several times actually :cwy:
Favorite moments
What are some of your guys favorite moments?
^ I cried, several times actually :cwy:
Favorite moments
- Jet Gatling
- Asura
- Mermaid Kokoro silliness
- Kiwi and Mozu hitting on Paulie
- MERRY!!!
- Everything with Robin including but not limited to beating up Spandam
What are some of your guys favorite moments?
1. Jet Gatling
2. Ussop's speech to luffy
3. Luffy to lucci "yeah well I was just hungry that day
4. Luffy's farewell to merry
5. Asura
6. Third gear
7. Luffy vs lucci especially since for some reason the dub made the fight feel less dragged out
My favorite moments
1. The Filler episode
2. When the crew finds out Kokoro is a mermaid
3. "To the Sea!!!"
4. Sniperking on the roof (then falling)
5. Franky and Robin fighting on the bridge
6.Third gearr
7. Jet Gatling
8. Fight on the bridge
9. Merry's funeral
10. There's more I can't think of. This set had tons of fighting and was HILARIOUS. One Piece is one of the only shows that can blend action, drama, and comedy together and still make it work.
–- Update From New Post Merge ---
After watching the new Fairy Tail set, I realized that the filler episode was the same as one of the Fairy Tail episodes. Is the whole flower blossom thing a Japanese tradition I'm not aware about? Also, since the ending were almost identical, was there some sort of story they were both acknowledging?
Happy Thanksgiving everyone stuff your faces with good food I know I will lol
Rewatched the going merry funeral with my girlfriend earlier and I cried hit me harder the second time and it made me think when Bink's brew gets dubbed its gonna be far sadder just too much
Best part about that is we won't be getting a subbed song for the emotional scene that occurs.

Yeah, one of my most anticipated thing right now is Bink's Brew in English.
Glad to hear positive things for the set. I've only watched two episodes, but robin slapping Spandam didn't feel as gratifying as I hoped. Girlfriend said, "really? He beats robin for thirty episodes and all he gets is some slaps and a swollen (not even bleeding) face?"
I'm assuming she gets to beat him again later, but I forget.
Looking forward to the last episode. I've managed to his the cover and disc art and menu from her, but I don't know if I can make that last 13 episodes rationed over the next month.
Finished the set last night. So many good moments. Mini Luffy punching Lucci in the nose made me laugh. The Merry moments made me tear up. What has always amazed me with One Piece is that each time I re-read or re-watch through the series, the emotional moments always have at least the same level of emotional impact as the first time I read them, and in many cases the impact is even greater with each subsequent run through.
Great set, all of the episodes were great, loved the commentary too. I was bummed they messed up the In The Booth stuff, but I'm sure they'll fix it on future voyages.

Uh yeah, Robin isn't done.
Hm. Wonder when that cover will appear. Two weeks until we're in the waiting period. I've barely been able to watch any of the newest voyage's episodes.

i would assume we would get the cover next week or the week after
Wow, that Jet Gatling was delivered superbly, I wonder what Colleen's throat must have felt like after doing that scene
TBH here, I'm going to say something that probably everyone will disagree with and I'll get flamed and hated, but I want to share my opinion here. I honestly feel Colleen surpassed Mayumi Tanaka at this scene and I'm surprised I'm not seeing more positive comments (or any) about her delivery (not just here BTW, everywhere). I think though, that this is due in part to the fact that from the beginning Mayumi has had numerous different tones and yells for all of Luffy's emotions. His angry tone isn't always the same. It depends on the situation, what the offender has done, and how Luffy deals with it. For the most part of what I've seen of the dub, Colleen has always done amazingly well with Luffy, but this is an area I felt she needed work on. This was why I was slightly disappointed in her performance with Gum Gum Storm… I love that scene, I made a video of it in all different languages (that was removed by youtube -_-) but there was just something missing in Colleen's performance. Something that Mayumi was able to do that Colleen couldn't.
When I watched Jet Gatling in the original Japanese all those years ago (I remember looking EVERYWHERE on every possible site the day it was released XD) at first I was happy with the scene... but the more I watched it, the more I felt like it could have been better. Part of the problem was the attack kept looking different depending on the angle and then there's that just awkwardly drawn scene that makes it look like Luffy's arms are decapitated, but that's besides the point. Mayumi's delivery of the scene was good but I felt it just didn't have the desperation and the power that it needed. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it was bad, I just felt it didn't have a uniqueness to it that the other final attacks have had. (I know I'm probably not making sense here, sorry)
Colleen managed to put a level of frustration, anger and desperation in Luffy's voice that wasn't there in the original. When you compare her delivery here with other final attacks, it's just has so much more impact. It was the first time I personally have heard her do such a thing. Listen to that final yell (s)he gives. She literally made him sound like a monster using his normal voice. You can really feel Luffy's emotions here which is exactly how it's supposed to be. I'll admit I haven't been watching the dub as much lately but these episodes I WANTED to see, so maybe this is something that already happened and most people are used to it.
But I really feel like Colleen deserves a ton of credit for her performance here. It actually MADE me enjoy the scene and FEEL the scene more than I ever have before. Up to this point I've only felt the dub was on par with the original, but this is the first time I'd say it actually surpassed it.
I just... wanted to say all that. That is all.

I think I might agree with you don't get me wrong I love mayumi's performance but colleen's was just so damn good much better than I expected the anger in her voice when luffy says gum gum was amazing. And the screams just were so amazing
One Piece is part of the Cyber Monday sale on Amazon. One Piece Collections 1 - 8 are on sale for 15.49 each. So if you are missing a set this is your chance get it.
I might be one of the few OP fans who is not a fan of Mayumi T. or Kazuki Yao for that matter. Since Luffy is the main character, me not feeling Mayumi's performance was a big part of why I stuck with just reading the manga up until Funi took over. Which is a shame because I really like the rest of the crew (save Franky).
No competition for me. I love Clinkenbeard. The gravelly/raspy nature of Luffy's voice is original and so fitting. Mayumi sounds like a girl sometimes, and too young at others.
Also something that I feel like might have been an accident, but I thought ended up being a nice touch is how you can barely hear Lucci say "Iron Body" when Jet Gatling starts.
Quexinos, feel very fortunate you said that in this forum and not on, say, /r/onepiece. You probably would've gotten flamed to a pulp for bashing the sacred original seiyuus!!1
No but really, I always preferred Clinkenbeard in the scenes like "Jet Gatling", but preferred Tanaka's funny-sounding Luffy on every other type of scene. Clinkenbeard's performance can be grating on those scenes, but on the scenes like "Jet Gatling" it adds to how intense a scene is.
i guess it comes down to preference because I much prefer colleen for comedy scenes her portrayal of luffy's comedy is always funnier to me
I really don't know who I prefer. Mayumi Tanaka's Luffy just works so much while Colleen's voice fits so much for the dubbed version of the cast and just translated great for the English audience.
@LUFFY#1:

same goes for me both work well for both versions

Holy Crap… I'm ordering all my Enies Lobby DVD's tomorrow (I always wait til the last set in an arc to get released before I order mine) and I was going to get Collection 8 along with it since I didn't get to complete Skypeia the first time through (Collection or Voyage? Don't care, I just want all the episodes.)
Perhaps I'll have to split the order.
