>>39799781I have no fucking clue why 4Kids localized One Piece when they saw how much of a show that this actually was. People died in the first few episodes. There were firearms, booze, people getting killed or about to get killed, and a lot of blood. You don't get the license for a product if you are kid-friendly anime shit.
Pokemon was also starting to get really, really fucked up by 4Kids as well before they lost their license. Little to no original music kept in the episodes. Increasing Americanization. Increasing dub errors and mistranslations.
