One Piece Dubbed changes

I keep reading aroung this site how 4kids completly messed up one piece shen they dubbed it, but I do know what they did to do this. So this thread it to list all of the things that they changed. If it is against the rules to make this thread, then delete, close, or do whatever.

And I know that there is a one piece thread on the first page, but that is about the story, well, from what i have read of it anyway.

I heard that they missed some of the episodes out. Ho many, and when should they have been on?

Well, with all the cutting and merging, they cut over 30 episodes worth of footage. But those are including merges. As for completely skipped eps, they skipped the Apis arc(which was filler anyway), the Laboon arc(Which was not filler) and the Little Garden arc( Which was an actual part of the plot, they skipped it to get to Chopper faster and market him to all the kiddies.) They edited Laboon the whale into an iceberg, gave Sanji a lollipop when he shoud have a cigarette, edited marines' guns into supersoakers, all blood is erased, I could go on and on. Go to opguide.bravehost.com to see for yourself all the butchering.

Right. I thought that i would look on the internet to see if i could see a list. And I found this site. http://opguide.bravehost.com/
I do not understand why they made so many edits. I can now understand why people like EE said that they butcheder the show. I mean, i have heard of people doing edits, but this is rediculour. The may as well as make there own show, instead of ruining a completly good one. I mean, why edit cigaretes out of Smokers (Chasers in the dubs) mouth, and then leave the smoke. I mean, me and my cousin wondered why it was like that. And i still think that it was wrong that they skipped so many arcs. I mean, fillers or not, they are still part of the anime. I also think that it is tupid how they make it so that no one dies. I mean, didnt they make it so that Zoro's friend, the girl, just got really ill, not that she died. I am not watching the dubbed any more. I will stick to the subbed.

I know that this is kind of going off topic, but have 4kids ever made such drastic changes to other anime before?

Also, on that site is a list of what episodes were and wernt edited. http://opguide.bravehost.com/episode_list.shtml.

44.Fantastic Voyage
The entire Apis arc (7 episodes) were skipped by 4K!ds, and then this episode spliced 3 together while skipping the Laboon episode
48.Saving Nami
4K!ds skipped the entire Little Garden arc (consisting of 10 episodes) to jump to the Chopper saga here.
58.Doc Rock
At this point One Piece took a winter hiatus on 4K!ds TV after a mere 33 had been skipped or spliced
I think this about covers it.

To be fair, they only took the death thing one step further than the creator of One Piece (who's notoriously unwilling to kill off characters outside of flashbacks...) already did.

Yes. Mostly Yu-gi-oh.

Yeah, besides One Piece, the main heavily-edited show you'll hear about is Yugioh. Just about everything that can kill you in the show can only send you to the Shadow Realm in the dub. Plus, excluding the virtual card battles, all violence is toned down in the show (like Joey punching the Pharaoh). Plus everytime someone's holding a gun, it's either turned into a pointed finger or the whole scene is edited out.

Yeah, that's the main stuff I can think of right now...

Yes, well it wasnt just the violance. I mean, come on, mixing 3 episodes into 2, and editing out over 32 episodes out of 78. That is half of the series. They didny need to go that far. I have yet to see all of the subbed manga, but i am guessing that it is better than what i have seen of the dubbed, so i cant wait. And why on earth did they grap the liscencing to a show about pirates, if they are against violance? I swear down these people do not think.
