News Piece: Season 4 is Coming

Well guys it's finally happening, the awesome guys at the Unofficial One Piece Podcast have officially announced via a well marketed podcast special, that Season 4 has been officially licensed by Funimation. For those of you who don't know, Season 4 contains portions of several story arcs. The Davy Back Fight arc pits the Straw Hats in a series of challenges against the Foxy Pirates. the Ocean's Dream arc based on a One Piece videogame in which the Straw Hats lose their memories work together to regain them.

The very popular Water 7 arc largely featured in Season 4 depicts the Straw Hats in some of their worst hours. It practically has some of the most important and darkest moments in the entire history of One Piece in my own personal opinion. But in terms of overall narrative, it introduces the future shipwright of the Straw Hat Pirates, Franky.

I'm absolutely excited about this. Water 7 is one of my favorite arcs and hearing it in dubbed English will be an amazing experience. The prospect of the Funi voice actors speaking these famous lines makes me quiver. By the way, Funimation seemed to have licensed 58 episodes so far, but considering the fact that this arc is so popular, and the fact that apparently unlike the Japanese DVDs, these are in widescreen and HD. That alone is going to pave the road for Season 5. Funimation haven't stated a release date but my guess is going to be the summer of 2012 or possibly the fall.

So now that I've said my piece, what are your thoughts on Funimation finally giving the fans what they want? Please post your comments below and let's just sit back and enjoy, knowing that Patrick Seitz may be voicing Franky like in the Unlimited Adventure game. It will be great.

One Piece More: Summer Love

I love Summer. It may be as hot as heck and makes people sweaty but I so prefer it over the cold winter. Also it is a time of the year where a person can relax and just do whatever they want. May it be small little side projects, doing summer school or just doing nothing. It is all your choice as in what to do during Summer vacation.

Though this summer I have been waiting for a long while now. A chance where I can finally relax and chill. Last two semesters of school has really been something for me then the last two summers I was busy with either Summer semester or an (awesome) internship. This summer is just me doing whatever I want. Not sure if that is a good thing but I am looking forward to whatever small projects I decide to undertake. One thing for sure is that I am going to have fun and hopefully not be bored! haha We just have to see.

One Piece More: Sogeking says, "Real Men Can Cry Too"

Do you know why I like Sogeking? I don't know really. Maybe because he is like Batman and I like Batman. Maybe because he is Usopp? Both Batman and Sogeking are masked heroes that fight for good and are awesome beyond belief. They have so many cool gadgets. To tell the truth they are just awesome. If anything then Usopp is the Bruce Wayne of the One Piece world minus the high tech gadgets. Or the money. Or the car. Or the secret identity. Or...Well you get the point. They are just awesome people with mask!
