I'd watch it if I had an ep list that excluded filler.

I remember when the 4kids dub came out and I knew nothing of OP, I thought the Grand Line was going to be THE final frontier that the crew wasnt gonna reach till the final episodes(whenever that will be, not soon i hope), boy was I wrong. THEN, 4kids decides to skip like a whole frikkin arc (Sky Dragons) and Little Garden episodes(i think they did), and I didnt even know they were in the Grand Line already.
Glad i decided to restart this from the beginning or I wouldve missed a shit load of episodes.
PS. "Believe" is my fave opening for OP, so far at least.

The 4kids voices were good, that's the only thing they had going for them.

Watch the FUNi version. It is better than the Japanese version in almost every way.

lol no.
Luffy sounded retarded and shouted even in normal conversations, Zoro was good, Nami had no emotions, Usopp was overall moronic, Sanji has a disgusting Brooklyn accent, Chopper was just bleh and Robin sounded like a hilbilly.
The rest of the cast consisted of people with dumb accents with very few actually good voices.

The thing about the accents is, that some of them would've actually worked had they been given to characters who fit it. Sanji should've been given a french accent not Brooklyn, Mihawk should've had the accent of a Spaniard not a Frenchman, and Shanks accent works for him for some reason.
I like the Funi voice for him better but his 4Kids voice just works for him for some reason I can't quite explain.

The only one who sounded shitty out of the main cast was Sanji. (Worse fake Brooklyn accent I ever heard.)
Shanks' voice was pretty good too. You just have horrible taste in VAs.

Shakes voice in the 4kids dub was the best one, mainly because in the games he sounded like a badass. Considering the different voice directions for games instead of the usual ones in the dubbings, they tend to kick ass and do a good job most of the time.

I don't see what's so wrong with Funi's Sanji. I know it doesn't sound suave but I think it sounds very good.
