EPIC WIN! Serious, EPIC. WIN! But seriously... that was fast... they only got sued last week or so. O_o Well, I don't know much about business, mind you, but that's 4Kids alright, giving up already. I mean, I know they lost around 30% of their profit from the loss of Yu-Gi-Oh rights, but still... |

That means they still want to continue to try and be a business, fight the lawsuit and make their lost profits back. |

That's pretty messed up logic there. Forgive me for knowing a thing or two about bankruptcy. Oh well, I'll just have to let you guys have at with things you don't understand. Just read the word 'bankrupt' and celebrate, despite that not meaning the company is dying. You're just going to be disappointed in the long run. |

Onibokusu said: I agree that this merely means they are hiding from the lawsuit while they come up with a battle plan so yeah, this is as far away from giving up as it can be. While I agree with you on that, you can't deny you've defended 4Kid's editing and americanization over and over through this thread and the other similar ones.ycart59 said: Onibokusu, you're STILL here arguing this?

Yeah, because I don't see anything wrong with 4kids' Americanisation. It's not like they represent all licensors or anything. And besides, as other people have said in this topic about the whole rice ball thing, kids don't care. It's only you older anime fans, that don't even watch 4kids' broadcast dubs, that hate on them and complain. |

We did when we were kids (I know I did), but do you still watch them now? Most of the people responding to this thread probably don't, some probably haven't ever. I'll only find myself watching a 4kids broascast dub if I'm re-watching old episodes of Pokemon or something, and that's not very often. |

@Onibokusu OK, what if you're right about your views? You're in favor of 4kids is because you percieve that they've done no real wrong. You've got quite a reasonable explaination for your support too and that's just fine the way it is. I'm sure you've made your stand point clear. But why are you being so excessively persistant about it. Was it necessary to argue with just about everyone who posts negative comments against them? |

I'm rewatching dubbed Pokemon right now, I'll admit to that. But that's merely for nostalgia. I just find it strange that you KEEP coming back to defend something like this. Most people would've given up by now, unless they just wanted to show JUST HOW MUCH more "informed" they are, even though your argument has gotten very far away from anything legal (even if it was my comments that derived it). And you don't seem to want to inform, either, so don't bother falling back on that. You wouldn't argue so much if you were here to inform. |

Seems like you were just looking for a way to incite an argument, considering what the general consensus about 4kids was in this thread. You didn't even follow up when I gave my opinion on why the rice ball was changed, you just asked 'are you still here?' |

ITT people resort to flames and petty insults because Onibokusu rained on their hate parade with actual logic. Good show. Onibokusu sure does have a lot of logic and is probably smarter than the rest of us. I for one humbly admit that my thinking skills aren't worthy enough to qualify a discussion with him. But the thing here is, I find his arguments, in bigger words and more complex writing style, to contain somewhat of a provocative tone, fueling the flames for others to argue back. Of course, it's NOT the superiority of his language ability and logical reasoning which infuriates people so much. Rather, it's his determination to prove he's right while, for me at least, looking like he's rejecting those against him to be wrong and unreasonable, hoping they'll see the error of their mind set. And no, not because he's arguing with a lot of post, but there's gotta be a limit somewhere. Also, certain the remarks such as .. Onibokusu said: You've never watched the uncut version of 4kids' Yu-Gi-Oh dub, have you? That's what happens when people who don't know what 'uncut' means don't buy the DVDs, due to them discounting the release due to the 4kids logo being on it. Well, I wouldn't expect you to know what 'irony' was anyway. It just sounds like you're calling me a troll because you don't agree with me. Name calling isn't going to get you anywhere, especially considering name calling comes about when you've started to lose things to say. Wow, you really think that? That's pretty sad. ...etc, wait wasn't there more to the rice ball discussion? Sheesh, I see no reason why he should be wasting anymore time dealing with these 4kids haters. A highly talented and rational person such as himself should just leave this topic in dignity and pride, whilst looking down upon us as we continue to enjoy posting inconstructive comments. Sry Onibokusu, but this guy here made me snap. I knew it started out as nothing more than some simple, inoffensive counter-argument which people had trouble accepting. but it gradually picked up it's intensity up to this point. I won't say that you're entirely at fault here. Feel free to say whatever you want, or just shun me by ignoring this post as I'm too unskilled at my language proficiency and uncreative for your consideration. |

And why are you frustrated? Because it's hard to realize when you're wrong and have nothing to fight back with. I know the feeling, trust me. The thing is, no one wants to be wrong, so when things get tough and your views are challenged it's instinctual to want to fight against it, and that's why people kept responding. |

Why I'm mad is q good question indeed as I've never even argued back that much myself. I just let it go of it after he replied to mine, and he did so in a decently lenient tone too. What I'm actually more frustrated at is the fact that he's dominating the whole board. Why does he keep lurking around like a vulture, waiting to strike at each and every one whose 'logic is screwed up' until he achieves ABSOLUTE victory? Shouldn't he consider when to give it a break and let others roam free for a change? Just because he's right and we're all wrong doesn't mean he should force people to change their opinions. There's a difference between being smart by giving out a splendid counter-critique and just acting like some arrogant higher-up elite who thinks he owns the board, which in this case he's both. And did you notice my quotes up there? I find them insulting towards the other members who 'were' here. Without it I might have even over looked this whole matter. |

If I remember correctly, I'm the one being responded to, not the other way around. It's evident in all your 'examples', considering I was just responding to others. None of those are examples are of me 'lurking around like a vulture'. Sure, they can look that way, out of context mind you. There's no rule about how much I can post in any one topic. I'm not spamming, nor trolling, I'm perfectly on topic. You're free to leave any time if you get fed up with it. And did you notice my quotes up there? I find them insulting towards the other members who 'were' here. Without it I might have even over looked this whole matter. Insulting? axlecampos used irony incorrectly, 4kids did release an uncut dub of YuGiOh, I am being called a troll simply because I disagree with some of you, and the guy I called 'pretty sad' contradicted himself mid-post. Cashdaxxx said: I'm not trolling, I'm just suggesting for you to stop since seeing you in every page in every news thread is already annoying. And if I were to construct something, it would contradict my request for I'll be increasing your post. Well, if 'every news thread' is this thread, the Aya Hirano thread (of which I made a single reply), UK Streaming thread and the FUNimation thread, then I guess I am in 'every news thread' which would be pretty annoying, wouldn't it? You could, y'know, look in other threads too. Couldn't hurt. I'm pretty certain I haven't posted in them. Actual Logic? You mean; I watched some 4kids production stuff so I'll counter everything you say about them. Nahh, I'll pass to that. Well, if you like to base what you're saying upon misleading information, go ahead. I'm not stopping you from thinking they're a dying, evil, culture blocking company. You can discount absolutely everything positive about the company if it makes you feel any better about yourself, but you'd be pretty silly to bring an attitude like that into a serious discussion though.
