Catch up on One Piece NOW!
Well, One Piece returns to Toonami next week, and since we're starting rather late in the show's run, FUNimation is now letting us play catch up.
In the event that some of you out there don't have the DVDs or haven't seen the series beyond where Toonami left off, FUNi has had a handy website running for the past few years where you could stream the uncut dub episodes for free. Unfortunately, large batches of episodes sporadically went on and off the site every few days, providing an incomplete picture.
Well, FUNi has finally decided to be merciful and now all 205 episodes are available for streaming. No episodes are missing. AT ALL!
http://onepieceofficial.com/videos.aspx
Go get caught up if you haven't yet, and if you don't wanna watch filler, here's a handy episode guide.
Episodes 1-53: Canon
Episodes 54-60: Filler
Episode 61: Both (first half is filler, second half is canon)
Episodes 62-130: Canon
Episodes 131-143: Filler
Episodes 144-195: Canon
Episodes 196-206: Filler
Note: If you really want to watch episode 206, only the subbed version for that is available on the website.

A new home for Gundam?
Bandai may have ceased its anime operations in North America, but that doesn't mean we have to go DVD hunting on eBay.
A new anime streaming service called Daisuki is launching in April May. Anime production company ADK is launching the service with the sponsorship of Dentsu and the cooperation of five other large anime firms--Toei, Aniplex, Sunrise, TMS, and NAS.
Notable titles to launch with the service include One Piece (aired on Toonami before and is soon returning), Mobile Suit Gundam (aired on Toonami along with several of its other incarnations), Lupin III (which had a brief run on Adult Swim), Prince of Tennis (one of the original Jetstream veterans), and Madoka Magica. And yes, it will support dubs.
This website will NOT interfere with anime that are currently streaming on other services like Hulu or Crunchyroll. Daisuki will act more as an aggregating service and will not pull the licenses from those sites. They will also sell anime tie-in goods.

A special treat just before Soul Eater.
Back in the mid-2000s, the creative team behind Toonami created a webcomic that was never released. It was meant to be part of a major project that was eventually scrapped. Even though this mystery project never came to fruition, they did manage to finish the comic (or rather, the first act of it) before it all crashed and burned.
The Toonami Tumblr has been releasing each page of the comic (22 in all) since November, and now this rare comic can be seen in its entirety.
Check out my thread in the forum to see each individual page linked, or download the whole thing in a handy ZIP file.

Adult Swim digs up the Holy Grail.
Back in September, Genndy Tartakovsky held a Reddit interview (our article on that here) to promote Hotel Transylvania and talk about his other works. In that interview, he confirmed the existence of a Dexter's Lab episode that was banned and he would unveil it someday.
Well, Adult Swim has answered the call, and the banned episode can now be watched online! You can view it on Adult Swim Video or their YouTube channel!

More sweet music to your ears! (UPDATE)
(Note: This is a repost of an earlier story. I'm bumping this to the top with more info.)
The Toonami Tumblr has been releasing a lot of mixtapes from DJ Clarknova over the past few weeks.
It started with the release of Warm N Scratchy Vol. 1, then Skull Island, and now more great news is coming down the pike!
Warm N Scratchy Vol. 3 has been released today (open in a new tab to make these links work), and a third Toonami album, Toonami Supernova Megamix, is being released on Christmas Day!
There are a few more volumes of Warm N Scratchy to go, and Vol. 2 is their least favorite, so they're releasing it last, if at all.
UPDATE: It's Supernova time! Merry Christmas!
Also, check out the other fan-made cover art submissions here and here. (EDIT: Here's an updated version of the "official cover" from the same artist.)

Genndy Tartakovsky interview!
A few days ago, Genndy Tartakovsky posted an interview thread on Reddit (yes, it really is him; he has photographic proof!) and he answered the many queries of Reddit's users.
-A Powerpuff Girls reboot special is in the works. (Let's hope it's not another...ugh, this.)
-He'll bring an infamous banned Dexter's Lab episode to his next public appearance. He also spills details on why it was banned. He might even release it online. (Maybe...)
-He's definitely working on the Samurai Jack ending. Money and distribution are what's keeping it at bay, and the success of Hotel Transylvania will help.

Live-Action 'Dragonball' Set For August 2008
In an article published last week by The Hollywood Reporter, 20th Century Fox is readying the start of production on their live-action adaptation of "Dragonball" (note the absence of a "Z") with a projected release date of August 15, 2008.
Justin Chatwin ("War of the Worlds") has been cast as Goku and is reportedly already in training, while James Marsters ("Buffy the Vampire Slayer") will play Piccolo. Screenplay and direction will be provided by James Wong ("Final Destination") while Stephen Chow ("Kung Fu Hustle", Shaolin Soccer") is attached as producer.

'Voltron' Next in Line for Big-Screen Announcements
20th Century Fox-based New Regency Productions is close to a deal with the
Mark Gordon Co. to adapt Toonami founding series Voltron: Defender of the Universe into a
live-action film, according to today's Daily Variety. Gordon has been developing the picture with scriptwriter Justin Marks. Marks' take is described as
a post-apocalyptic tale set in New York City and Mexico. Five ragtag
survivors of an alien attack band together and end up piloting the five
lion-shaped robots that combine and form the massive sword-wielding
Voltron that helps battle Earth's invaders. A Voltron movie has been in the works for nearly three years, with Jim Young's Animus Films funding its development, but this summer's box-office success of Transformers has piqued the interest of New Regency to join the project. Marks has become a go-to guy in Hollywood for comicbook, videogame and toy-based adaptations, handling the previously-announced He-Man and the Masters of the Universe as well as the Green Arrow-based movie Supermax for Warner Brothers, in addition to a Street Fighter feature for
Fox. (all we need now is a Birdman announcement to complete the set.- N.)

Now Warners Has Three To Make Ready... Thundercats, Ho!
Following hot on the heels of their recent announcements of live-action adaptations of other old Toonami favorites, Warner Brothers is bringing the big cats to the silver screen, by way of producer Paula Weinstein (Blood Diamond) and scriptwriter Paul Sopocy.
No anticipated release date has been announced, and the movie's plotline currently stands as an origin story expanding on the major heroes and villains
from the animated series, with the plot focusing on Lion-O coming of
age as the leader of the Thundercats.
Update 06/08/2007: The Variety story identifies this as a CGI-animated feature rather than a live-action adaptation.
