But 4kids did get me into anime because of DoReMi and Tokyo New New. 4kids' not the first, Comcast on demand did...

I guess I speak for myself when I say that then.
for me too, 4kids dubs were always cartoons to me.
however like Bobo, i can't say that i would've got into anime if i didn't first introduced to "cartoons" in the first place.

i mean love of "cartoons" -> want to watch more online -> learn of anime? maybe?

Yeah, I just started watching anime on demand television when I was 12. Thanks to RetroJunk getting me into them though...

I feel out of place now.

I got into anime primarily through stepmania :<

4kids actually turned me off anime, specifically Yu-Gi-Oh! and Pokemon (yeah back then I did distinguish between anime and western animation).

you must've been a pretty mature kid if 4kids turned you off anime as a kid o.o

I decided the change the title earlier, because 4kids' problem with Yu-Gi-Oh it over and Zexal's be aired in the morning in here and now it's a 4Kids' discussion thread, Yu-Gi-Oh will be moved to a new thread next time.

As you see, 4Kids turned me off because I just found out the Japanese version compared to it (One Piece mostly...).

i get the feeling that any anime that 4kids has dubbed will turn into a 4kids General Discussion. just a feeling.

Lol, sorry to be irrelevant but that reminds me of a shirt I saw at an anime convention a while ago.

For me, 4Kids is just some company that dubs Anime for English children.

Hahahahaha! I want that shirt!

@Quaz: 4Kids is the second-worst company that does that, though, which is why they stand out. The worst nowadays is Nelvana Enterprises, known for the really shitty voice actors they consistently hire that make you want to drill out your ears because by golly do their voice actors blow. Trust me, you cannot even try to purposely be as bad as their voice actors; they're *that* bad.

But Im pretty sure it cant be more worse than the 4kids dub of One Piece

are you serious? the 4kids dub of One Piece is awesome! it was how i got soo into One Piece, making me dedicated enough to watch every single goddamn episode.

i mean when i rewatched the dub sure it gave me cringes and stuff, but the voice acting is good, and imo 4kids does a great job getting kids into anime.
