believe it
Joke that Little Kuriboh made Kakashi into David Bowie in the Fandub Spoof Series Show.
Not even a tiny one? It'd have to be something cheap considering they just got Naruto. I know Funi has been trying to give away One Piece. Maybe we get Tiger and Bunny, or a legit comedy show this time.
Come on Persona 4.
COME ON, PERSONA 4
Toonami can't handle the swag of Charlie Tunoku.

I'm hoping for Baccano, personally, but One Piece or Tiger and Bunny would be pretty cool. I could get behind Madoka, but I'm not sure if they would go for it.
Come on, something good.
50,51, 54-60, 93,98,99,101,102, 131-143, 196-206, 213-216, 220-226, 279-283, 317-319, 326-336, 382-384, 406-7, 426-429, 453-458, 492, 497-499, 506
^the above are filler. One Piece is excellent about not having much filler.

Pretty sure that license has been abandoned in the US due to Geneon going under. I don't think they could get it even if they wanted to.
Anime isn't, though. They've only animated a small portion of the manga.
This will be of much use to me. Just started watching the series and I'm loving it so far, but I'd like to skip filler seeing as there are so many episodes to catch up on... :/
I'd watch it on Toonami for the dub.
Not the anime. If it were possible to get it then it would be pretty damn sweet.
Sounds good. How viable is skipping the filler though? Will you feel like you missed out and not know what's going on if you skipped those episodes? I remember watching Naruto and skipped from around 125-219 and i practically started right where I left off. Is it the same here?

A few of those have canon material mixed in, so it's not quite as seamless. A lot of it can be skipped over without missing anything, though.
I see. Well, I'll probably end up watching them. It doesn't seem like they go on very long and as long as they aren't terrible, I shouldn't mind it.
Yeah, One Piece likes sticking filler in the middle of a particularly long arc (the episodes in the desert during Alabasta) and some of the stuff that isn't filler can still have stuff added in (the first game of the Davy Back fight).
Pretty much. Heck if you are doing a speed one through one piece then fast forward through the intros and most episodes would be 15 minutes.
As the others have said, the anime is just a footnote compared to the manga (having just reached its 1000th chapter).
However, there's still manga longer than Ippo.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Cooking Papa, Golgo 13, and the insanely long Kochikame. These are just a few examples.

This. One Piece moves too slow and there's a million episodes.
If OP were to get a full hour:
After 1 year: middle of Alabasta
2 years: Davy Back Fight and beginning of Water Seven
3 years: End of Water Seven (
)
4 years: Very beginning of Impel Down
5 years: Beginning of Fishman Island
Pretty good progress and it gives enough time for Funimation to do the dubs.

Funimation currently has the license to Episode 336, the end of a filler arc that followed the end of Water 7/Enies Lobby. So they have plenty right now for a possible TV deal (along with future acquisitions).
They also have Strong World, that could be used for a possible movie night.
I would love to see Strong World. I hear it's basically One Piece Arc: The Movie.

i hope there's no One Piece. three long shonen is enough, even if one of them is on at 5am
Infinite reruns of Bleach would still be the highest rated show on the block.
Naruto beat it a few weeks ago.
Bah. Beaten by a bunch of stupid facts.
They won't need the infinite reruns now that they have Naruto, by the time Naruto really gets good Bleach should be on it's way out.

haha i suppose. but people were acting like One Piece should replace Samurai 7.
on the bright side, i finished the Soul Society arc! now i can just watch something else...jesus was that drawn out
Absolutely.
That sucks. I thought the premise was awesome.
It had the extremely well executed Soul Society arc that pretty much put it into the Big 3, then had a consistent drop in quality from thereafter.
It essentially turns into a beat-for-beat rip-off of Yu Yu Hakusho, and nowhere near as entertaining.
Aizen = Toguro
Fullbringers = The Sensui Seven (this one is far more blatant)
At least there's only 85 episodes left.

yeah. it becomes your average Fightin' Show with a large cast of characters and lots of talking during battle
What? Say what you want about aizen, but neither toguro is fit to carry his golf clubs.
Reverse that please. Both Toguros do more damage than Aizen did.

I don't get the bleach/yu yu comparison

Just skip the bount arc and slog through the espada arc so you know what's going on when aizen shows up again
