Haven't you noticed that they try to stray away from the fact they are in Japan?

The only way the names would've worked would be if the people who watched it knew that the Mew Mew's names were the names of food. The younger audience who watches it would be confused because a)the names are sometimes weird and hard to pronounce and b)the whole joke of their names being food is lost on them anyway because I don't think a lot of 10-12 year olds know that Ichigo is Strawberry.

Obviously you've been to Mew Mew Power Uncensored. But if you noticed a lot of series got more than 75% right? That really isn't bad when you think about other shows that get way more hacked than this. Besides most it was just stupid changes and dialouge changes.

*twiches* Yes, 4kids is the ONLY dubbing company that gets it wrong. I didn't realize Pokemon had fallen yet. 8 years going strong! Yes there are a lot of things wrong but like I said most of it was stupid things. Most people are for the original version, but the dub isn't that bad. I have the sub now, but I was quite enjoying the dub. THERE, I SAID IT!

And yeah..i guess there are other shows that get hacked worse than this..like Sailor Moon...

Well I'm sure 4kids thought (and well so do I), it's kind of weird to call people by food. Especially Lettuce and Pudding. They might of well just kept it as Retasu, which is better than Lettuce.Tenshi K. Tama wrote:There's an uncensored one? I didn't know that. I've only seen the sub and one ep of the dub..

Obviously you figured out that the uncensored version would be the original Japanese version. ^_^
I didn't say 4kids got it right all the time. I just meant that they aren't the ONLY ones who do. Maybe I'm being too nice, but there is a difference between American and Japanese television. If someone doesn't like the dub of something then they should just watch the sub and stop complaining that the dub sucks. I do my fair share of complaining (like Ryou's English VA), but some people a)can't get a hold of the sub so the dub is all they have and b)some people may not know there is a Japanese version and c)some people actually do like dubs no matter how badly they are edited.
