Uncut One Piece?

Post by OzzieArcane » Wed Jun 21, 2006 1:06 pm

Does anyone know if they are planning to have uncut One Piece DVDs? They're doing it with Naruto but I can't find anything about One Piece, is it doomed to be treated the same way as Pokemon? I haven't watched much of the series myself but it looked pretty good from the 3 episodes I saw.

I heard no such plans of an uncut release. 4Kids REALLY botched this series to the extreme.

There's a difference...Naruto was licensed by ShoPro/VIZ, One Piece was licensed by 4Kids. 4Kids attempted to realese uncut version of Shaman King and Yu-Gi-Oh, with help from FUNimation, but they cut both of those projects. Accept it, chances are we'll never see an English version of the One Piece we all know and love.

They did? Damn, I was hoping Funimation was going to get the rights to the uncut sub from 4Kids like they did with those two.

4Kids said they WOULD release uncut episodes, but it's been put on delay because they want to sell their edited version more.


The uncut version would STILL suck with THOSE voices.

Every chance of me watching this series domestically has been thrown out the window. :( :cry:

Doing any sort of uncut One Piece would not only be admitting that 4kids were way off base in their marketing of the series (something they'd rather go bankrupt than do) and would require an enormous amount of work for the voice "actors" (quotes imply contempt and sarcasm) because of the enormous amount of stuff they cut out. Also, if the true content of the series was released on DVD and the parents of the 6 year olds that watch the dub bought it... oh damn would there be a frenzy! :roll:

But they have realeased uncut Yu-Gi-Oh and Shaman King, and OP is in their plans as well, but all the uncut stuff has been delayed.
