excuse me but i was the first one to mention this anime, and i havent even seen it yet Lucky for you One Piece will be airing on Toonami this April.... April 08, 2005 The Cartoon Network has announced that the One Piece anime series will make its Cartoon Network debut on the Saturday night Toonami block with back-to-back episodes, which will air starting at 10 pm on Saturday, April 23'rd. The One Piece anime has been airing on the Saturday morning 4Kids TV block (on the Fox network), but has so far garnered only average ratings in spite of the fact that One Piece is one of the most popular anime series in Japan. While the pirate-themed One Piece could be seen as suitable fodder for Saturday morning viewers, the series has elements of humor (and violence) that could make it a major hit with the slightly older anime fans who watch the Cartoon Network's Toonami block. The One Piece manga, published in the U.S. by Viz, is already a solid performer in both bookstores and the direct market, which should help the ratings for the Cartoon Network broadcasts (and the DVD sales if the series is made available in unedited versions -- so far no One Piece DVDs have been announced).

i just watched the first episode of one piece, pretty good, there are a couple of things i really hated though.
the ginourmous fat woman and her humungous club.
the little boy who always opened his mouth 6 feet wide when he was scared.
the fact that everytime someone thought of something it wasnt what they should really be thinking at that point.
for example, when the young boy stood up to the hideous blob his thoughts were "man, i did it, i stood up for myself, i'm fulfilling my dream" when it should have been "oh crap, she's gonna kill me", anyone else find this part weird.
why was luffy in a barrel?
why is this show only being shown every monday and wednesday, thats not like toonami at all, is it cause it's so short a series.

I'm guessing, thats because 4kids did the dubbing, imagine that, 4kids + dubbing = ROFL Try watching the Japanese version with subs, it might be much more better than what 4kids are showing on whatever channel they're showing it in. Besides One Piece is one of the most popular in Japan now. Hahaha but I still haven't seen a single episode of this anime LOL. Short siries? are you kidding me? this anime has over 135 episodes
