Product Description:
ONE PIECE - SEASON 01 - FIRST VOYAGE (DVD)
Amazon.com:
Monkey D. Luffy (rhymes with "goofy"), the hero of this popular shonen (boys') series, is determined to make himself King of the Pirates by finding the fabulous treasure of the legendary pirate Gold Roger. In the first episodes, Luffy begins to assemble his crew, recruiting master swordsman Zoro and ace navigator Nami. In flashbacks, the viewer also learns how he acquired his trademark straw hat from the noble pirate Shanks. Because Luffy once ate a "Devil Fruit," his body and limbs can stretch almost infinitely to deliver staggering kicks and punches. With his frog-like face, skinny legs and outsized feet, Luffy is hardly a handsome hero. But his honesty, unswerving dedication, and kind heart win him friends wherever he goes. Although series creator Eiichiro Oda cites Dragon Ball as an influence, One Piece has a much cartoon-ier feel. The Straw Hat Pirates tackle a bizarre-looking array of foes that includes iron-jawed Captain Morgan, Captain Buggy of the Clown Pirates, and Jango, the moon-walking hypnotist of the Black Cat Pirates.Oda says that One Piece is the story he wanted to read as a boy. Millions of others loved that story: the broadcast series ran for more than 350 episodes and spun off nine features. One Piece debuted in America 2004 in a heavily edited version from 4Kids that made little sense. This uncut edition restores the show to its zany glory--and makes it clear why the series is so popular in Japan. (Rated TV 14: violence, tobacco and alcohol use) --Charles Solomon

- Bless Funimation!
I can`t really knockdown 4Kids, they did introduce me to "One Piece" after all.
I even followed the series when it moved to CartoonNetWork, but with the constant time slot changes I loss interest. Unlike Naruto, I don`t think One piece ever really got its shot here in US. I pray that changes.
How did I get back to the fold? Blame it on Youtube. It renewed my interest for this series.
I purchsed my copy of "One Piece" uncut & unedited for $[...] here at Amazon. ... Read More

- An Excellent Release of an Incredible Anime
One Piece is the best of anime right now. It's a long running anime and is approaching four hundred episodes at this point. Full of imaginative characters and creative story plots, One Piece is an addictive show that only gets better as it goes along.
I had the misfortune of seeing the first American release of One Piece and it nearly made me dismiss it as cartoony garbage. But my brother discovered it uncut so I ended up watching One Piece the way it was meant to be seen and there was no going back. ... Read More
Rating: - Piece Out With Luffy and the Gang
If anyone remembers, 4Kids ruined the first American TV run of "One Piece" with a god-awful opening song rap and other terrible dubs.
However, for the most part, Funimation does a great job with all the dubs and the special features in "First Voyage (Uncut)."
This is "One Piece" as it was meant to be seen. Characters gets scarred up by swords and other weapons, but Luffy and his friends manage to take out plenty of evil pirates, while helping other people along the way.

- Gift for my daughter
I purchased this item for my daughter who is evidently addicted to Japanese cartoons.She seems to love it however I don't get it.Bad language, not suitable for children as far as I'm concerned.
Rating: - A splendid revival of a great series
This newly released compilation shows exactly how One Piece should have been shown. Near it original source as possible.
For veterans of the series, it a lovely chance to see this great anime once again in it's original form. For newcomers to the series, it's a great way to be introduced to One Piece in it's original form.
This DVD the first 2 story arcs of One Piece, plus half of the Captain Kuro arc. It's enough to quench your thirst for the lovely series i think.
