4Kids Cancels One Piece Production

[Nasferatu Alucalb]

From the Anime News Network:

4Kids Marketing Director Roz Nowicki has confirmed that the company will not adapt additional episodes of One Piece.

Altogether now: WHOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO!

The bad new is 4Kids' license won't expire for a few years, so it'll be a long time until another company can put out uncut DVDs.

Now all we need is a decent publisher to get the rights to it and do it the justice it deserves!

Why even hold on to a licence that they flubbed up, just release it instead of hoping to gain money off a gimped unfinished product.

because they can't make money off of a license they don't own...
