People also ignore the censorship Japan does to some Western Cartoons but its always evil America and 4kids

Expecting someone to post THAT pic.
Did they really? I am unfamiliar with all their animes besides Pokemon, but from what I can probably figure, the only thing 4kids did was just original intros. They didn't actually do original soundtracks though, did they?
I feel studios like Dic, Funimation, and Nelvana got more heavy handed in actually producing original episode music rather than using the japanese episode music.
4kids' jokes were usually shitty pop culture references or worse than the original jokes in the show. Not to mention the shitty voice acting that was even worse than most dubs. Not to mention releasing their edited versions without the original version. Stuff like Doremi are already funny. I haven't seen 4kids' version of that but I can only imagine the kinds of things they did with that series and the censoring an already show for little kids.
Japan censors anime too and people blame it on Japan trying to cater to the US.
>unfamiliar with all their animes besides Pokemon
Their OP dub was particularly shit. Also notorious for overcensoring and having truly awful VA.

To be fair, after they lost the license it was apparently found that they didn't even want it and it was pushed on them by Toei. The whole situation sucks and gave us several years of their shitty OP dub but it was ultimately just shitty Japanese business.
>random wacky cues to match how characters move in shots
>better music, or music at all for that matter
You know, I wouldn't mind some anime still getting the 4kids treatment just for the lulz. Any series from anno domini 2019 that deserve it?
Remember that time the CEO said children are stupid and nobody wants to read? Ha.
They did their own music to try to americanize all of the shows they worked on. Insert songs with japanese singing were especially taboo for 4kids.
>Remember that time the CEO said children are stupid and nobody wants to read?
And he was right.
Fuck you, I love the Shadow Realm
I mean, it's hard to disagree with him on either point.
>better music
Just no.
To be fair, the majority of their soundtracks were arguably better than the originals most of the time.
Post examples
Don't they have to give every cartoon character five fingers so they don't look like yakuza?
Nichijou
Why didn't they get the video game VAs for Sonic X? They would've been slightly more redeemable for that.
Well if you ask me, nothing beats a jelly-filled doughnut.
>better music
You haven't seen Japanese Yugioh I take it?
SAO getting 4kids'd would've been phenomenal.
