I was thinking about how messed up it was that 4Kids had an intense dislike for Usopp. Aside from removing his greater character-defining moments, they made him out to be some kind of prick by having him try to take credit for Arlong's defeat. Remember when the villagers let loose with an explosive cheer after Luffy emerged from Arlong Park's wreckage?
Original Usopp line: "Yeah, Luffy! You're the man! You deserve all the praise! BUUUT, if you wanna share some of the glory with ME, then I won't mind at all!"
4Kids Dubsopp line: "Yeah, and it's all thanks to ME, the GREAT Captain Usopp!"
If I were following One Piece through the dub (I actually tried to, but I couldn't always wake up in time so I downloaded manga scanlations, instead), then I'd think Usopp was a douche for saying such selfish crap!
Yeah, yeah, the 4Kids era is over, but that doesn't mean we still can't bitch about it! I was just searching for some good Arlong arc AMVs and it made me remember how much that arc needs re-dubbing.
Excuse my rant, by the way. I would've bumped the 4Kids discussion thread, but everyone seems to hang out here lately.
