4Kids no longer dubbing Pokemon?
Well, I'm surprized no ones posted this here yet, but I found this at Serebii and Bulbagarden.

...are you serious? <3
Please don't tell me this is some sort of sick joke ;_; I hope they do better with the anime than 4kids. ^^~ |
So is this a good thing or a bad thing?
I mean. 4Kids don't really do much changing to the original Japanese verison except make bad pun titles and jokes. It not as bad as One Piece and other animes. What the difference? Then they said that 4Kids will still work with Pokemon USA on dubbing. Then what change will come to the anime? So not much change you ask me. |
Man, finally! I do hope for some VA changes, not all. Just James, mainly. -_-;
Hopefully they also stick more to the original version. >.>;; *celebrates* |
This is a Christmas miracle. =P
Maybe now we will actually get a more decent and better dub...and Onigiri that's actually onigiri. :P |
Sweeties, you just pray, and pray, and pray, and when the day finnaly comes...you don't know what to say! *Tears of Joy.* This IS a Christmas Mircale! XD
|
OMG I....I TOTALLY CAN'T AGREE MORE!! :'D *cries* Its so..so...so.......I can't even describe it X3
|
This could be good news. I hope it does mean some good changes. But for some reason, James' voice has grown on me, lol.
Now we need to get someone better for One Piece too...... |
No, I carefully read this same article at Bulbagarden.
And guess what? I think the only thing that Pokemon USA is getting is the liscensing of Pokemon. They're not getting the production. And I think that's a really good thing, because I wouldn't want them to get the production too, cause the 4Kids VAs do a great job doing their characters' voices and stuff. ^_^ |
I'm... speechless O_O; I never thought such thing would happen. But I'm hoping for a better dub!
|
Wait, does this mean that they may show some blood now since its not 4kids anymore? If thats the case then I gotta cry *cries tears of joy* What an awesome gift.
|
So is that what it means? Licensing and distribution? I mean if Pokemon USA gets the show I bet they keep the VAs.
Still what is the change? I mean the story plot will be the same anyways. Can anybody explain what this means? |
Reyna_de_la_fire, the liscensing has absolutely nothing to do with the anime.
It's just who gets to keep what properties and rights with Pokemon and stuff.... So, anyway, the production of the anime is sill with 4Kids, thankfully. ^_^ And I'm so glad that it is, because I couldn't handle any new people doing any of the main characters' voices (especially Ash's voice, I love his voice!). |

Dubbing wise, 4Kids has an almost flawless script. They hardly 'dumb down' Pokemon as it was always like that. They do change some jokes, but often those are jokes meant for the Japanese and not one a native English speaker would understand, and of course there are some episodes that can't be shown due to content differences in Japanese and American children. Since the new script will be written by Nintendo, it'll be about the same, but chances are it will have a lot more jokes thrown into it since Nintendo does have a habbit of doing that. |

And I just posted the news to here! The 4Kids boycott continues... |
4Kids have done nothing to the dubbing of Pokemon except adding bad jokes and making horrible pun titles like "A Whalord of a Time"
I don't give a care who have dubbing rights as long as they still show the show. That all that matters to me. I just want to know what this dubbing rights thing has to do with the anime itself. What does it matters if 4Kids gives up dubbing on Pokemon. They don't make that much changes to it. It is nothing compare to what they do to One Piece. I don't really care about dubbing anyways. As long as I able to watch my animes easy by TV then it is ok with me. |

For those of you who are still worried about the VAs, worry no more....
Here's a post (from Bulbagarden) that will probably make you feel better. ^_^ *copied and pasted from bmgf* Water Pokemon Master: I just talked to (a VA) and he said it's just the licensing of items. 4Kids used to handle the licensing when a company wanted to use Pokemon characters on a product, but now PUSA will. So, it really has nothing to do with the dub. It's just the company. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ So, there we go, he just spoke to the 4Kids VA, and he basically confirmed that the change with the liscensing won't affect the anime. |
Well that's a relief. Some people thought that it also meant change in VAs. But glad it's cleared up.
But I could say that I'm glad that 4Kids isn't dubbing Pokemon. It's not about the titles they make, its the edits they put in the series to make it more "American" when it's only making the anime clueless. xP |
Well, if 4kids is still dubbing it, then that means that the voice actors won't be changing.... actually I'd prefer because I like the voices for the dub, mainly Veronica Taylor's voices.
|
People keep confusing me because they don't seem to have all their facts striaght, so let me put everyone on the same page by using a quote that seems to distinctly sum this all up.
