I think I saw one person mention this in the ep 45 thread, but wasn't this "fast talking" guy contest thing stupid or what? It's so fake, the guys doesn't actually talk fast... they just fast foward him. Oh and his message is the 4kids web site? Meh, just more of the "forget the foxbox" I gess. (by the way has anyone noticed that they still have foxbox commercials (not in the morning but...at other times.) Hehe, after all they do to try and get into our heards... 4kids... (meh I don't like either of them anyway)) What will they come up with next . . . (scary) Thinking about it is really freaky, I mean, just imagine fastfoward guy signing with the 4kids 5!! *dramatic music*

Yes! >< It was obvious they fast fowarded (word? ) his speech. His "secrect messages" weren't even difficult to decipher! I easily figured them out...>< Another thing...the sound it gave off...like a strange noise...like if his voice was being altered by a machine...0_o I don't know how to explain...it just didn't sound natural....

Who cares, it's 4Kids, they suck. Yep. couldn't put it better myself. I think that someone's brother need a couple bucks for rent this week so they made up some stupid job for him to do. 4kids: You are now fast forward guy!! FFGuy: I've hit a new low!! W00t!!11 LOL. *gets shot by Jr.

Ugh... As I was watching the guy, I couldn't stop thinking: "If they gotta give us crap, they could at least make it quality crap. Or at least convincing crap."

Yeah...how stupid does 4Kids think children are, anyway? I mean, some of them aren't all that bright, but most of them aren't as stupid as 4Kids thinks they are.

Well, using Yu-Gi-Oh and Shaman King as prime examples; They will erase and digitize out nearly ALL text in the environments (shop signs, street signs, books, etc.)
Not only that, but they also seem to change country and place names (Ex: in shaman king, they refer to america as "desert to the west")
Apparently, their logic is "Kids can't read, and japanese text will make them think too hard. We have to keep em stupid so they don't know we took a good show and made a mediocre product out of it."

"NO, THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS JAPAN! NOW SHUT UP AND BUY OUR POKEMON CRAP JIMMY!" That's exactly what 4Kids does. If I was ever a creator of a manga/anime and it was very popular, and 4Kids wanted to license it in the states, I'd say no and say "This would ruin the way I want people to expierience my work. I'm doing this for the fans."

Erm...what does that have to do with the topic of this thread? Please don't go off topic, you can say that in the "Naruto's licensed!" thread.
