Anime Looks like Funi's takeover is beginning....(about todays episode)

[Jinzouningen17]

Well, as we all know, Funimation is now somewhat of an affiliate or somethin like that of Yu-Gi-Oh!(since their the ones selling the Yu-Gi-Oh! tapes). Well, I noticed today that they're somewhat beginning to have a little influence on Yu-Gi-Oh!.

First of all, let me first say that part 1 of todays episodes was definetly a good one, although it was only talking the majority of the time. I LOVE Kaiba's new suit. Especially with those metal bracelet type things that he has on his arms. And his new coat is somethin nice to. Also, the animation in todays episode was awesome. The way they had Yugi(the spirit one)was simply awesome. Well, enough about the animation part. The main thing that really struck me was when they called those 3 ancient cards "The Egyption GOD cards". Now I've read a few threads back that they had different names, which I think the seperate cards do, but all of the cards together are still known as "The Egyption God Cards". Thats something I never thought I'd hear on Yu-Gi-Oh!. Who knows, hopefully soon they'll be able to allow blood on there(or atleast start selling uncut tapes and DVD's.)

Anyway, although it was just the first episode, the storyline looks like its gonna be hot with Kaiba starting his own tournament, also when they talked about Kaiba being the magician from the past and Yugi being Pharoahe from the past(thus them stating that their feud is eternal). I cant wait to see the rest of the story. Well, time to get ready to go watch part 2. I'll probably edit this message and talk more about it after its over, but who knows. Anyway, for those of you that saw the dubbed episode today, express your thoughts. ^_^

Uh..Funi doesn't create any of that stuff. Its all based from the Japanese series...they just do the dubbing. It doesn't actually involve creating any new looks within the series.

Why is that so bad to hear? It's okay for them to talk about gods in this context because it isn't GOD as such- they are a group of gods. They say that in lots of series when referring to things like that. Like Mysterious Cities of Gold, and there are others, but I can't remember them.

I doubt they'll show uncut vidoes and DVDs just because they said 'God'. I doubt they'd show the gory bits anyway- vidoes have censors too. And it is a kid's show. What I think they'd do is put back in any bit cut out of the dub for TV viewing (not the bits cut out from the original) and slap that on tape/disc- I severely doubt they'd have the blood. Well, I hope not. Especially not the bit with Bakura licking it from the eye... it seems too risky a thing to do with a popular kid's anime show. But I don't know. They could at least put the guns back in for a DVD release.

:therock: Did I SAY that they had anything to do with the actual animation? No. :cross: Everybody in their right mind already knows that the animation was done in Japanese. The main thing I'm talkin about with Funi was the [b]DUBBING[/b]. I was complementing the art work of the Japanese when I was talking about the drawing. Read closely next time. ;)

And about the God thing, I never said it was a bad thing to hear. Its just that usually in english dubs, they usually change the names around. For example, Fire God Convoy was changed to Omega Prime in the dub of Transformers: Robots in Disguise. In G-Gundam, the God Gundam was changed to Burning Gundam. Its just something you usually dont get here in the dubs is the original names(especially when "God" and "Devil" are concerned). I think its a good improvement that they finally(for the first time an any dubbed anime that I've seen)allowed them to use that name.

So how about you guys read my posts more closely before you make some comments okay. ;) Your welcome. :D

Edit: I just realized Altron was a mod so uuuum, if I pissed you off in any way in my post then I'm sorry. Just thought I'd clear up things for ya so I dont confuse you again. ;)
