According to animenation.com, FUNimation does not have the rights to distribute One Piece in America. No one does yet. FUNimation is one of the companies bidding on it though, so hopefully soon someone will have the rights and hopefully soon it'll be released. I really want to watch it, I love the manga.

That would explain the sudden burst of fansubs at Animesuki.com. Good news.

I have only heard good things about One Piece and I should have started watching it a couple of years ago, but now that it is somewhere around 200 eps I am kinda turned off. But I will be collecting the manga soon enough.

don't get the turn off cuz it is a huge anime! one piece is for the guys who like fantasy , if u are good with that! then you are going to wish that OP will never end belive me! go download the fan subs they are the best right now! ^o^ IMO One Piece is the best anime I ever saw to date , not that I saw alot but it is really my type , so give it a chance :) .

Given the length of the anime (200 Episodes) this will have to go on TV or it won't have the legs sales wise. So I'm expecting funi, 4kids, or Viz to make a push for it.
I'm hoping for either Funi and Viz, though. Though both have problems with their releases, they do keep the sub track for DVD releases. 4Kids doesn't, making them a less attractive choice...

After 71 episodes of the fansub I can say it's definitely one of the most original anime series ever. There's no signs of an end in Japan either... a new movie is out and the TV series is still going strong.

I'm already SEETHING with RAGE over the inevitable EDITS when it comes stateside.

I still giggle at the idea of funimation doing Blue Gender and putting it on adult swim with the ending credits shortened to like 15 seconds to cut out all the nudity. I don't think One Piece would suffer from too much editting... there's the occassional stabbing or Luffy gets bloody knuckles or bitten by shark-men... but nothing that they wouldn't show on Toonami or Adult Swim.... although if it's on Fox Box... that would be another story. I wonder if they'd have to edit out Sanji's cigarette in every episode?

That depends. Doubtfulk there would be any such edits on the dvd's but the tv version would probably have them.

Really? I guess I will be picking that up for sure then. But to be honest I actually like the dub as well so I would have gotten it anyway.
