Well Bleach aired so I'd guess we probably will, but cant be 100% sure with all that's happening there.

--- Quote ---According to a Japanese national PTA initiated survey, One Piece is the most popular single comic series averaged between elementary to middle school children. Furthermore the animation is the 15th most liked OVERALL television program averaged between the same age groups. The most popular reasons given for enjoying the series were, in order from first to third, ‘It’s entertaining’, ‘I can talk about it with friends’ and ‘It relieves stress or lightens my mood’.
The only animation to beat out One Piece in likability was Inazuma 11. One Piece even managed to beat out a cultural icon like Doraemon which was in 16th place. Furthermore, regarding manga series, while Dragon Ball was ranked 15th by ‘What Parents Think Their Kids Like to Read’ it was actually ranked 24th by the children themselves when asked ‘What Comics Do You Like to Read?’
Ranked #15 in ‘What TV Programs Parents DON’T Want Their Children to See’……Naruto
Top 3 Popular Reasons Parent’s Don’t Want Their Children to See Naruto:
1. Too many scenes of cruelty
2. It takes life and death too lightly
3. Harsh language

Amusing.

Well, the non-filler stuff is pretty grim. That's why I love the manga. And only like the anime.

Can't say for sure, unfortunately: http://onepiecepodcast.com/blog/2011/03/01/pta-gives-reason-to-praise-one-piece/
I'd be pretty interested in that myself.
It's probably better though since it censors more stuff, and there aren't semi-important characters who are killed off. Although I don't agree with "2. It takes life and death too lightly". The Third, Asuma and Jiraiya, all of them had great moments when they were dying, and I don't feel the picture of death was presented wrongly in any sense that could confuse children. Can anyone shed some light on this if it's me who don't get it? If it does however then they are probably too young to be watching the show, anyway. I mean, you don't put a 8-year old kid in front of the TV to watch Naruto, at least not the uncut version.
