With how fast they dropped.. the more recent voyages will be under $30 by the end of this year, and by this time next year be around $15-$20. So I don't consider that much of a wait. =P Especially since it will be at least next year anyways before I even start purchasing One Piece, as I have other things higher on the list to get first.

Oh, but I watch the DBNL encodes that ragnawind posts. If/when I purchase the DVD's.. I'd have already seen the episodes beforehand.. so it's not like I'm waiting to see the episodes after purchasing.. so therefore I can wait. xD

I think Anime would sell like hotcakes if companies would lower prices to a more suitable range. I mean you can buy TV shows with 26 episodes cheaper than a 13 episode Anime box set, and that isn't really good. They should try to match other DVD prices and thus if it was cheaper they'd actually sell more. Most people cannot afford to shell over the kind of cash they want for every series that comes out.

AsianDVDClub got the iso out quick, i remember pre relase they got it, any chance oh that happening again??

But you'll be putting the link here anyway right?

is this next filler arc good?

Yeah
Pretty much better than bleach or Naruto fillers

Great can't wait for it alltogether tho :D

hey everyone, just some news here regarding One Piece Season 3 Second Voyage, it will be released on August 31st, 2010 about 6-7 weeks after Season 3 First Voyage so that's pretty good and here's the cover art as well, it looks pretty damn awesome :D

Great news. These box sets must be selling great if Funimation keeps shelling them out every ~2 months

Yeah I think they are cause they have been keeping this run of releaes since may 2008

It looks like all of the Skypiea Arc will be released this year. There was a FUNimation panel in my country and there someone asked about the One Piece Skypiea DVD Releases and they said and I quote

"While We are unsure about the date of the releases, we can tell you this.... We Should hopefully finish Skypiea arc by the end of the year so next year we can get onto releasing new material"

"The First set from Season 3 which will contain Episodes 144-156 has currently got a release date of July 6th, I think. The Second set from Season 3 was just recently announced for a release date of August 31st which will contain Episodes 157-169, We can tell you though that Episodes 170 through to 182 will be released in October (Mid) and you will see the final One Piece Skypiea set released in Early December which will contain Episodes 183 through to 195"

and that's where the conversation finished. So it looks like Skypiea will be released all this year. YAY

thats good news, thanks for telling us this piece of info :D

Think we should stop posting each time a release date is out...

We can post it in the One Piece: The Release Guide [Update: Season 3 - First Voyage]

It just makes there too much topics here which are the same thing...
