@MasterKingJC:
I guess you didn't see Gohan's retarded eye…and the magical, fairy dust explosions.
No I haven't. Guess I need to see that one day.
@kenjisalk:
The S&P people are usually pretty damn obtuse, so you can slip suggestive stuff by them quite easily (much like the video game's ESRB board). They only really notice overt violent/sexual content, and don't really grasp subtext very well.
Anyone know who handles the editing of the content for DBZ Kai? Is it a group within Funimation or does a third party get involved?
For the record, I think the mushroom thing was actually handled well considering (it didn't look all janky like the edits the Ocean Dub of DBZ employed), though the bizarro Gohan eye thing was pretty embarrassing (though animation errors like that can be found all the time both in Japan and abroad).
I believe from what I been told by one of Funi's people on Twitter is that CW4Kids review the episodes and then send a list back of things that Funi needs to change in order to air on CW. When it comes to Nicktoon's edits they have a rep there with them and explaining the edit or at least talking over how to edit it.
