When you think about it actually, it's kinda a moot point since the major audience is very young. Voice acting for them is not quite as... obvious for lack of a better term.

Well, since they're still on Chapter 11 bankcupty, that's why Al Kahn got retired from 4Kids.
Right now, he's joining the company that produce series for toddlers to children called Pacific Entertainment.

Abridged Series
It's because of 4kids that you're into anime in the first place.

Well, in great news, Yu-Gi-Oh Zexal is going to air in the US by October 15th.

I only like Yu-gi-oh for the hair
I only liked the first Yu-Gi-Oh! series.
i love all the YGO series ^^ well i haven't watched ZEXAL yet but yeah

Since everyone else is posting opinions.
I like Yu-Gi-Oh (second series. Haven't watched the first series except for small clips), mostly because it's amazingly funny how the rules are broken, and it's also a pretty cool story and stuff. and the Abridged series ;D
GX, I kinda dislike. It's seems more like a cartoon rather then an animu and stuff. The characters look and act childish and I lost interest in it pretty fast. They didn't even have a Lightsworn character. Also, it seems like the black sheep of the YGO family. The hair isn't eccentric, there's no real "villan" that is defeated (but they become friends or fuse souls with Jaden or something), and it's just weird ;~;. What a terrible series. . . except for Alexis Rhodes. . . >www<~ unyuu~
5D's has to be one of my favorites. Not so much because it's CARD GAMES ON MOTORCYCLES, but rather because it's a pretty good storyline with a pretty good plot. It's silly and dorky like the other Yu-Gi-Oh! series, but it's pretty badass also, and they don't bend rules that much. Except that Yusei cheats like an asshole. Nobody gets 5 tuners for Shooting Stardust. Nobody. Unless they're cheaters. And Sherry is moe too >w<~, but apparently nobody knows who she is. She's French. (also hyurp derp I like the one YGO Abridged episode~)
ZEXAL (aka CARD GAMES IN SPACE), from what I've seen, looks kind of absurd. The animation style is back to the childish sense, where the scenes are bright and colorful and the characters are all colorful and eccentric and 13 and stuff. Yuma pisses me off intensely, though. He's stubborn and he's a terrible duelist and his hair is terrible. He's like a beetle or something. The only thing good about ZEXAL is Cathy >w<~. . . and Astral. Astral is pretty cool. I find him sexy kind of, because you know, he's a feminine-looking naked ghost man, but once I found traces of testosterone, his sexy level kinda went down. But Cathy >www<~.
tl;dr 2nd Series and 5D's are cool. GX and ZEXAL are too childish for me. They're probably good for the younger audience, but just not good in my taste ;~;.

To put it simply...
Now we know why the dub took so long; they spent all of their time doing really crappy edits of the skirt of one of the main characters. \o/

Crappy edits....
I've red a few volumes of the original yugioh manga and it looks like yugioh wasnt intended to be a kid's show.
Anyone watched Season 0?
I guess 4kids took yugioh and made it 4 kids.
I agree with Ygokid tho, if it werent for 4kids we wouldnt be into anime to start with.

4Kids didn't get me into anime; to me, the shows 4Kids dubbed were always "cartoons". It was adult swim that actually got me into anime.Bobo wrote:

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...YGOkid8 wrote:

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...).YGOkid8 wrote:

Oh, 4kids! I dislike thee, 4kids.
i get the feeling that any anime that 4kids has dubbed will turn into a 4kids General Discussion. just a feeling.kokoroanime wrote:

@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.
