Ah, well, I knew it was just Usopp and Vivi he was talking to. Water 7 is really interesting. Which episode did you see? I really recommend getting through at least Skypiea (a lot to ask, I know, lol) first, there are some direct links to things that happen there, though they seem small. Someone else started subbing the Davy Back Fight. That would be most awesome, thank you! Too bad I haven't seen any of the Japanese episodes of Pokemon (though I want to, I just don't know where to go (hint, hint ) Well, the Japanese Pikachu IS the same person in the English dub. They didn't need to get a new actress just to say "Pika! Pikachu!" I'll get some files up...I thought I already had some online, but they expired. Indeed. I read online scanlations myself, so I'm caught up with Japan. >D

...Someone else started subbing the Davy Back Fight. Yeah, but they're not as good as K-F or Gerusama. They've only done 3 episodes so far, and it's currently on hiatus, but hey, it's One Piece. It's the group that origionally provided the HK subs, but the leader of the group put an end to that. Well, the Japanese Pikachu IS the same person in the English dub. They didn't need to get a new actress just to say "Pika! Pikachu!" For some extremely odd reason, they felt the need to re-dub Carue. I think they would've done Pikachu if they would've had more money at the time, you know, to do stuff like change background music.

Yeah Cosmic, my same friend who I got into One Piece (And is now ahead of me damnit) never shuts up about Skypeia, it must be really good.

Well, personally, Skypiea isn't one of my favorites. Don't get me wrong, it's good, I think it's just a bit too long and drawn out. It's freaking 55 episodes in the anime, or something like that.
Another group called BalF just popped up and started where Hell fansubs left off, promising to finish them. But we'll see.

Thanks Cosmic-san!
So thats Chopper eh? I guess I sorta pictured his voice a little deeper, but I thinks thats only cause I saw the German-dubbed clip first. Now I know what everyone meant when they said that his [German Chopper] voice was out of character. ^ _ ^
EDIT: As long as I have this post, I might as well ask for one more thing, Does anyone happen to know the current ratings for the show on 4krapTV and Toonami?

I really wish I could help you there Tonfa-san, but I am currently unaware of the ratings. But what I do know, is that they are most likely not good. One of my freinds watches "the rap" for pure amusement when it airs on Toonami. So all of the ratings probably come from origional fans who watch the dub for amusement, like me!

Sanji and Usopp actually sounded good, though. I heard they're something like 1.2, but I have no idea what that means. The only thing I do know is that the ratings are pretty much tied with TMNT, and the two of them are the highest rated shows on 4Kids TV, but compared to other TV stations it's not too good.

Chopper's voice is good, just a tad bit girly. I didn't hear Chopper's voice I heard that Chopper's Japanese voice was done by the same person who did Pikachu from Pokemon (gets slapped in the head for stating the obvious). Are they using the Pikachu voice actor or did 4Kraps find someone else?

I tried to watch the preview on 4kids' website, however, all I got was this! I wrote my thoughts on the screencap.

The reason why they could keep her doing Pikachu's voice in the English version is because all Pikachu says is "Pika! Pikachu!" So no English VA is needed. Hehe. Nice screencaps there.

Referring to the first couple of posts in this thread have any of you tried gendou.com/ for downloading One Piece tracks? You DO have to sign up but its totally free and personally I find it to be one of the BEST sites there is in regards to convenience since it has most commonly known anime's in its database. Just search by anime name, I download most of my anime music from this place.

Thanks for the link, although I have most of those tracks already. As for the dub, all I can say is Dr. Kureha sounds crossed between Meowth and Starscream from the old Transformers.

Ha ha ha! How many people saw Saturday's One Piece? If you did then you must have caught that bit that they did with the doctor? They changed him into a her... and then had Zoro call him Freaky Frieda.
What's wrong with those guys? Is it so wrong for an old guy to wear purple and a half shirt? I don't know why, but a small part of me was expecting that.

XD How could you think she's a he?
