Cartoon Network Has No Plans for One Piece's Return (Updated)
posted on 2008-03-29 03:12 EDTThe Toon Zone News website reports that America's Cartoon Network has confirmed that it has no plans to resume airing of the One Piece anime series. According to a representative, the network has aired all the episodes it received and does not plan to repeat them. The network has already filled One Piece's former timeslot with repeat showings of the Bakugan animated series. The One Piece episodes dubbed by Funimation debuted on Cartoon Network on September 29 of last year.
Update: The Bakugan repeats that replaced One Piece have just been replaced by Blue Dragon today. Thanks, Nebs.
