Like others have said, 4Kids thought they were improving the show. Some of the stuff was to make the show more kid-friendly, other stuff was because they thought it was stuff kids liked (the awful rap theme, the editing out of any text Japanese or otherwise because "kids don't read," etc), and other stuff they just thought they were doing better, such as the music, I suppose. (Or was changing the music to save them money?)
One thing was odd, though: making Usopp very unlikable. They gave him an awful voice, cut out some of his flashbacks (from what I heard), got rid of some scenes of character development… Though now that I think about it, they probably did that because Usopp was a liar, so they figured that if they made him more unlikable, little kids wouldn't want to lie like him. I dunno, I'm probably wrong, but the theory makes sense in my mind.
I liked her as Ash, probably since Pokemon was one of the first animes I've ever watched. XD;
Her Robin dub voice wasn't omgz bad but it would've been better without the accent. Man, it's bizarre hearing her normal voice, though, after hearing all her different voice acting roles. XD
Didn't she voice someone in the Kirby dub? I forgot who…
…Okay, someone tell me I misheard. I could've sworn at the end of the ep, Satori yelled out "LET GO OF ME, YOU FGGT!" o__O
I have the game… sort of.
It's actually a present for my lil' sis's burfdae, which is tomorrow, so she's playing it right now and I have to wait 'til she's done playing for the day so I can start up my own file. :/
I watched the intro though and a minute or two of my sis' trying to figure out the controls.
Also, I'm guessing you can't play 2-player without a second nunchuck? If so, I'm gonna' have to go buy one so I can play 2-player with my sis'.
The only two moments where I cried were the end of the Luffy VS Usopp fight and Merry's funeral.
However, with Merry's funeral, I had been spoiled for it even before I read it in the manga by some retarded joke website. However… I thought Merry was dead when Kaku opened the gates and she fell into the water. When she returned, I thought that the joke website was wrong, so I had my hopes up until the next chapter (I was reading this in the manga; it was before the anime got there) when she SNAPPED IN HALF. I was just kindof... stunned, and then I was sobbing and clinging to my Charmander plush when I read the rest of the chapter. D: That was one of the saddest moments I've ever seen/read in any form of fiction. I cried a bit when I saw it in the anime form, but it wasn't as big of a reaction as when I read it in the manga, 'cuz I already knew it was coming.
A lot of the other moments made my eyes water, but those were the two biggest ones for me.
Man, this ep had some great lines! XD
"Why does Nami get to ride the waver? I wanna' ride it… FALL OOOOOOFF!!"
"For your meal we have sky lobster with a special sauce, and some sky fruits that I can't pronounce!"
There were others but I can't think of them exactly at the moment. I was laughing quite a bit during this ep, though.
Conis and her dad (I didn't catch his name and it's been forever that I've seen this arc D:) had some really nice voices. I hope the priests have good voices, too. :3
BTW, was "GOD" still on the Lobster's head as it was taking the Going Merry up to Skypiea? I swear I saw it...
Good ep. Had me laughing quite a few times. %3
I'll admit to being a tad disappointed with the We Are song, but I didn't know beforehand that it was a rush-job. (I had been wondering about that, though, and that's what I was thinking as I heard the song.) If they're fixing it in the DVD release, though, then that's fine by me. No complaints. :3
…I'll admit to liking the 4Kids version of We Are, though. XD; Although it messed me up when the music for We Are came up in the episode, because half of my brain was trying to pick out the 4Kids lyrics, which weren't there. >>;
That was a nice ep. %3
The "Auger" to "Ogre" thing bugs me a tad, but it's no big deal. Other than that the ep was fine. I'm okay with the "G. Zass" thing and Bible thing (…sorta. It'll always bug me a bit when religious references are edited out of anything due to being a religious person myself) since that stuff HAS to be edited out. --; But this was an excellent episode, really. I loved the voices. %3
Huh, I didn't know Rafitte's name was pronounced that way, though. (Not referring to the r/l thing.)
