One Piece Russian Dub

[OgriBah]

Hi everybody from Russia. Yesterday was shown 9 episode of One piece. Voice of Ussop is awesom. This link on vidio with russian dub with Usopp.

Lip-sync there looks much better than before.

[Sakonosolo]

This dub is really good. I also like how the title text, большой куш, means "a king's ransom".

Sanji and Zeff.

[Maron]

Sanji sounds suave as hell. I like how Zeff sounds too! Obviously as an English speaker I don't really know how to comment on the quality of the acting but from what I can tell it definitely sounds convincing.

[OPF]

I like all the voices, they are all quite near to the Japanese voices!
I think they are doing a good job.

Are now the opening and ending in each episode?
And is the series doing well in Russia? Do you have ratings?

[ultEmate]

No, unfortunately it's very hard to find ratings for this channel, I tried but didn't find anything.

Here's the second dubbed ending. It sounds like Comix Art is getting better with each episode!

[Yonkou255]

Dont you mean Dubbed ending?

[wjbraden]

^ Yes, sorry about that.

[Yonkou255]

I see. For a minute I thought they made that ending into the new opening. So! They are almost in Arlong Park! Awesome!

Meanwhile the first volume is getting a second printing of 3000 copies, 9000 in total. Third volume is coming out soon as well.

[OPF]

9000 is good, isn't it?

[ultEmate]

I guess. 6000 is an average number for new big releases, for example vol.1 of FMA had 7000 copies in first printing, so did the 19th volume of Naruto. That they're ordering more is definitely a good sign. What are the circulations of Viz's One piece volumes? Or any other One Piece localization?

[firecrouch]

I don't think VIZ makes those numbers public.

Where can you see the numbers?

[ultEmate]

The publisher releases the number of ordered copies for every month. Like this.

[ultEmate]

2nd opening.

[Electrivire]

Gonna be honest and say that I love the Russian Opening 2 more than the English one. But in general, I also think opening 2 is Funimation's weakest opening/ending in terms of vocals.

A little update:

One Piece began airing on Ukrainian TV today on the channel QTV with two episodes Monday-Friday at 4:00pm. Unfortunately, they aren't using the Comix Art dub and instead are doing a "voice over dub" with a limited cast of Ukrainian voices over the original Japanese audio.

However the Comix Art dub on 2x2 is currently on episode 52 and will continue to until episode 61. Episodes 62-130 will air later this year.
