Re: Rejoice---FUNimation takes over One Piece.
Dunno if I should be happy or sad. This is a big deal if you download OP since FUNimation is more strict with fan-subbing then 4Kids was.

Re: Rejoice---FUNimation takes over One Piece.
Ambivalent news. FUNimation is my favoruite anime company, and by Monday it'll be my favourite anime company that I am a shareholder in. It's also cool because Arlong Park is the centre of everything.
... On the other hand, OP is a diseased and rotting anime, so there's a good chance it'll fail. Still, I wouldn't jump ship for the world; if my .5K disappears, that's fine with me this one time.

And Toonami saves another one.
4Kids One Piece was watchable to me aside from the puns. Don't really care for Funimation but less puns and less skipped episodes are good I guess. |

Re: Rejoice---FUNimation takes over One Piece.
I heard that 4Kids mutilated about 6 episodes and turned it into one bad episode because the 6 episodes had too much violence. They ended up turning it into an episode that made absolutely no sense because of what they cut out too.
So assuming Funiamtion doesn't do that, they're automatically better. |

Re: Rejoice---FUNimation takes over One Piece.
FUNimation basically won't touch the episodes too violent for TV that 4Kids had to butcher; they're still heavily editing OP, but none of 4Kids' worthless changes (like the music + pun deals) will be maintained.
There will be some stronger edits, though; the fantasy violence will be reduced, so whenever Luffy punches someone, we won't see the actual connection.

Somehow I don't think this is Funimations doing however. Cartoon Network is probably afraid of losing current OP viewers and/or having two "Naruto's." If it manages to stay on the air I'm sure that over time such restrictions will be lifted but it sucks we'll have to put up with watered down OP abit longer. |

Incidentally I've been missing OP alot lately. Even if it is butchered falling behind is no good. Are they still in Alabasta? Grrr... I wish Toonami would group the few shows I watch closer together. >.< |
