This week is all about One Piece. We have the release of One Piece Season 4 Voyage 5 on DVD today and then this weekend we have the premiere of One Piece on Toonami!
That’s right, if you haven’t seen our multiple posts, One Piece is coming to Toonami and we’re starting with episode 207. We know this might be a bit hard to follow if you haven’t been watching the series, so to help you we’ve created some special recap and character profile videos for you on the official website http://onepieceofficial.com.
In addition to One Piece, we also have Darker Than Black - The Complete Season 2 Box Set on BD/DVD Combo and My Bride is a Mermaid joins our Super Amazing Value Edition line.
So, are you excited about One Piece on Toonami?
