Old localizers may have done many things I dislike and delivered a final product I consider crappy, but their intent was good.
Nu-localizers hate me and wish to lecture me and socially engineer my behavior for their political ends.
Despite the fact that old anime was changed in many ways I didn't like and found silly, the intent of the people making the localizations was to deliver a final product the target audience would enjoy. The changes were often made with broadcasting regulations and social and parental sensibilities in mind, with the purpose of being enjoyed by as many people as possible.
The new style of localized anime people like me complain about never had my enjoyment in mind. The lines and character design were changed only to advance political goals.

Yes, the Nelvana Cardcaptors dub was that bad. I watched it as a kid back when it first aired (blissfully unaware of the changes) and then watched a few episodes of it again as an adult (now aware of what happened) and I was disgusted that kid me ever enjoyed it. The music was cool and the voice acting was decent, but the show itself was butchered beyond recognition.

What makes it even more frustrating is that CCS got a 2nd English dub later on that had the opposite problem. It was uncut and had no censorship, but the voice acting was absolutely horrible. Even as someone who generally defends dubs, I can't recommend either of the CCS dubs because they both suck so much ass.

>>284798825
Kids who grew up in the 90's and adults nostalgic about having watched it as a kid back then, both of which are likely blissfully unaware of all the bullshit. Anyone who's actually aware of what happened and still likes the Nelvana Cardcaptors dub is a fucking idiot.

As a kid I liked the concept but after a couple of episodes I completely dropped it.

Glad I watched it subbed several years later. I ended up enjoying it

But as a young kid? You bet I watched every episode of Cardcaptors and made American Sakura mai waifu. How would I know any better? Her VA was even a 12 year old kid.

You don't seem to get the problem: As a kid you never got to watch these shows in production order. You were a kid, your life wasn't in your control. You had a schedule that adults forced upon you, and you caught every episode only when they allowed you to. And if they wanted to use the TV, tough shit, you're not seeing that episode this week, or ever unless it re-airs in a re-run that's also going to be shown out of order.

So it being out of order or it even missing important plot-critical episodes was never a thing you thought about as the target audience of this show. For all you know, you just missed an episode. I mean it sucks but how would you know that?

Your parents didn't care. If they had something they wanted to do in the morning, you were doing it. Maybe your parents respected that schedule but most didn't, because they viewed your cartoons as just that: Visual entertainment to keep you quiet. They didn't even understand that what you were watching had a plot because in case you didn't notice: Almost no western cartoons had a plot, they were episodic.

Honestly, if the only changes the CCS dub made were the westernized names, it would have been fine. That's like the least annoying thing about it. Futari Wa Precure got a dub that was mostly faithful to the original aside from some westernized names, and that dub was solid.

The final product of an old localization doesn't upset me as much as the one of a new localizations because of the intent of the localizer. The old one made changes because they were trying to make the final product as popular as possible. The new one makes changes because they're trying to capitalize on the expected popularity of the title to further political goals via lecturing and social engineering.

I watched it, I don't remember how but I found out back then about how the dub was censored and it pissed kid me off so bad that I started watching the subbed version on the internet instead, probably one of the first non-dubshart anime I watched
I don't see how anyone can say "the intent was good" when it clearly wasn't and was just trying to copy other Americanized shows for money, it was extremely disrespectful both to the source material and to the audience's ability to engage with things from different cultures they don't know about (yet, they would know about it if they were allowed to)

They are, however, subhumans like you will latch onto to create narrative bullshit.

Here is a good example, is that you falsely make things political when we talk about why Western animation died out. You fags will bring up Reagen solely to bash him and then try to act like Reagan killed Western animation. Not because of any logical reason, but simply because you are manipulating and generating a narrative. That is the only political bullshit that can be brought up. Of course anyone who knows the history will call you out and demand an explanation about why you cry about Reagen when if anything, the post He-man regulations where animation studios were banned from being able to make animated toy commercials wasn't a death blow to Western animation in many ways, instead of acting like its some good thing.

Contrary to what the contrarian retards here say, localization is necessary.

If a character makes an off-hand remark that references a Buddhist concept that nobody outside of Japan knows and the target audience is kids, then it's perfectly fine to change the dialogue to something the target audience will know. However if the series revolves around Buddhist concepts then the phrase should not be removed. It's up to the audience to decipher and integrate what it means.

Localization is not inherently good or bad.

Old localizations were worse because they were changed to socially engineer the behavior of children for political ends AND changed even more to fit American TV standards for children.
That's why dubs like DBZ basically have zero silence to them, the traditional belief was that any silence at all would cause people to change the channel.

You're probably just a poser faggot who doesn't watch any anime at all anyways.

Canadians dubbed plenty of shows that were popular in America.

How did old localizations attempt to socially engineer children's behavior? Where was the intent to impact the political sphere in the show noticeable?
As to the sheer mass of changes in older localizations, making them arguably worse than newer ones, that is a fair opinion to have. It did desecrate the Japanese original so it could pretend to be an American cartoon that never shuts up instead of being what it was.
I just personally am more irritated by the intent of the people behind the newer one to an extent where I dislike them more than the old ones.
>>
>>284805943
I think some censorship and redaction more irritating than others because of the intent of the censor, but I agree that it all sucks. I'm not as irritated by Yu-Gi-Oh cards being censored in Korean, Chinese and western releases as I am by manga pages being vandalized by gigantic black boxes everywhere that are there because the censor thought that the sexualization of women is objectifying and men who enjoy it are rapist pigs. One is trying to fit into a perceived (even if retarded) moral standard, the other is trying to dictate it to the viewers and actively condemn those that wanted it uncensored.
>>
>>284804110
America just happens to be a moralistic society, not in that their moral, but that they're obsessed with being perceived as moral. That kind of society can't help but desecrate almost all that comes from outside for one intent or the other. Some Americans may like it that way, like this >>284804363 guy, but many people within and outside the place are annoyed by such behavior.
>>
>>284805943
It is bad in general, but the simple reason that old censorship / localizer misappropriation was better is simply because the political ends they were serving were better and less sinister.

They can still fuck themselves for defacing the original work, but the point still stands.

Look at how a work like Dragon Ball was changed.
Goku becoming a Christlike figure in a similar vein to Superman is a big one, but a lot of shows were altered to imbue more Christian/conservative messaging, excised a lot of the more really violent or 'dangerous' ideas, you couldn't talk about Hell or Heaven despite the Christian slant a lot of characters received, that kind of thing.

Old localization annoys me more because they made those changes knowing it was more difficult to get information about/acquire the original show, so they knew that most people either had to put up with their fanfic or have nothing at all, unlike shitty subs now where everyone has access to the original show and can easily call out shitty subs/make better ones and spread them around

Considering parent were already trying to pass journalistic articles calling DBZ satanic with the show censored and bastardized in the manner you showed, how do you think they'd react if they released it uncut, with all the blood and none of the moralistic soeeches in that period in time? Would that movement to take down this "satanic" show maybe have grown even more?
Did the localizers making this set out to make as many children christian as possible because they hate east asian religions and philosophies like Taoism and Buddhism and wish to make them all christian, or did they make these changes so that vigilant christian parents would be less likely to turn off the TV and go on a crusade against the anime?
Also opinions aren't objective. Observable reasons to have opinions are. The judgements of value that led you to conclude the old localizations were worse due to how much was changed and how much of the original story was buried and how it disrespected the viewers and the creator are valid, and I can understand why you find that the most irritating, but I, despite also being upset by all of these changes, am not as mad at all of that as I am at the few changes in newer localizations because of the difference in intent. Old localizers set out to adapt to a culture and sell a product. They didn't have malicious intent in the sense of actively despising the target audience and trying to change their mind. New localizers set out to localize an anime with hate for the patriarchal structures of society and the intent is to dismantle the patriarchy and make as many feminists as possible. One is trying to adapt to and the other is trying to subvert, and I'm personally more irritated by the attempt at subversion even if the sheer number of changes is lower. There is no benefit of the doubt or comprehension of their situation to be found. They just hate me.

And in relation to new localizations, which even has an opportunity to receive a benefit of the doubt? Which one could be explained even if only partially by external pressures from parents and broadcasters and which observably comes entirely from a desire to subvert le evil societal norms and move potential political pawns?

The removal of those elements alone is equivalent to talking shit about it and deeming it incompatible and/or inferior with american ideals.
America is an aggressively imperialist culture which is why it has the most blatant censorship of foreign products, whether it is outright change or simple removal doesn't matter because the underlying purpose is the same, to protect the perceived american values and identity.
Saying that a bad localization/censorship is not actively offensive because it doesn't explicitly say "fuck that buddha shit YEEHAW" is a feeble apology for the most morbid forms of cultural imperialism, removal, changes and/or substitution of any part of the original source material are equally bad and stem from the same cultural issue.
Whether those changes add elements of certain sociocultural currents you personally disagree with doesn't fundamentally change the nature of the practice, that's your own nation's internal sociocultural issues that are mirrored as a byproduct of the confrontation with foreign cultures and ideas.

NTA but Yes, unironically. It was not just common for people to shit on Japanese shit, it was normative and widespread through the mid 2000s. You even saw this in nerd culture like vid related
https://streamable.com/0fameq
Western localization made a lot of entirely cultural changes to the content because the target demographic was white christian boys. Even nowadays localizers largely target a white audience (not a multi-cultural audience) so they purposely get rid of certain cultural things that Asian Americans and Japanese Americans would have no problem understanding (because they're not the target audience).

Compare this with the localization of anime in Latin America (where puritan religious values and superstitions are even more highly regarded) and you'll see that they for the most part just stuck to direct translations, even leaving in honorifics and stuff at times.

>But why change anything at all?
Because of a variety of reasons.
The biggest one is the simple incompatibility between sociocultural norms or customs between cultures, it might be religion or simple everyday life customs, sometimes it can also be something a bit deeper like certain themes or topics but those hardly get censored nowadays because the material that does get localized in the first place has usually passed the check at a localization level for those themes to be deemed safe, otherwise the product simply doesn't get localized to begin with and the problem is removed entirely.
Another extremely common problem is dealing with the lack of intercultural knowledge on common life topics or elements, e.g. Brock's (Takeshi btw) Jelly Filled Donuts™ are a thing because Onigiri are intrinsically japanese and not common outside of Japan's area, back in the days of the 70's-90's this was somewhat understandable as the internet wasn't really a thing, nowadays while not being as common it shows its true colour as a cultural practice because the localization process arbitrarily decided at a cultural level that kids are too stupid to make a simple google search on their phones about Onigiri/whatever or worse, there's specific cultural interests of various natures about limiting children's exposure to foreign cultures as much as possible.
Some other problems come from intrinsic linguistic or cultural issues, mostly figures of speech or specific cultural references that are too obscure for the everyday man to get, but these are probably the rarest case of localization issues because again, if such material even gets past the localization process it usually has an audience that can get those things to begin with so change/censorship is not needed as the product has a specific niche.

Trying to avoid backlash and actively causing it are equivalent now?
I don't think america censors because it is imperialist, but because it is moralistic and prone to purity spirals. Spain is extremely imperialistic, no one would dare to say otherwise, and yet they tend to respect anime way more, with many uncut dubs in contrast with the American abominations. Yu-Gi-Oh Zexal in Spain, for one, is completely uncut, even describing every card activated in the same tone as the Japanese original and trying to respect it.
Also I'm not American. Apparently that's relevant now.

Was this in the 90s? I recall we did air a localized fennoswedish 90s moomin anime, but that had some mild censorship too (one or two episodes cut and some knives removed i think)
Otherwise it was probably even closer to the source material than the Japanese release.

Come on man, what's next, tv shows for children should be written using 12 grade SAT vocabulary language?
>what do you mean? of course it should, they can just look it up hurr

No one has any issue with stuff from different cultures by the way, stupid strawman, parents plop their kids down in front of the tv to learn Spanish shit from Dora and nihao kai lan (I don't remember what the name of that show is), and before those, the Karate Kid was one of the biggest zeitgeist of the 80s. How do these fit in with the nonsensical persecution complex that Americans are super scared of the existence of foreign cultures for their kids? It doesn't. The thing is there's a time and a place, I'm watching pokemon for the same reason a Japanese kid is, not to learn about foreign foods but to be entertained by pokemon. The intent of the scene in the show is to display the character eating a familiar food. If that intent is lost on your audience because you want them to just be confused, think the characters are aliens, or grab a dictionary, then you did a poor job of translating that scene for your audience.

They do, which is why they're changed to begin with.

But somehow that doesn't apply to Pokemon's japanese shit which the show is literally full of, curious!
It's almost as if there's tons of sociocultural subtexts including the simple fact that spanish/latino culture is inherently less alien than japanese culture due to America's large latino demographic...

>>284811337
Yeah, I barely watched it either since the channel was mostly toddlerslop and I was in my edgy teen phase where shoujo was too girly for me, but I remember watching a couple of episodes ironically and laughing at episode titles like "Sakura and The Dangerous Piano" and the loan/slang spellings of words in the songs being left untranslated, leading to phrases like "the U2 Monday". We also had FMA03 and Naruto (although it only aired the first 52 episodes of it on repeat) on ZTV back in like 07-08.

>Removal, change AND even simply leaving the product as is are ALL sources of potential backlash
I'm not talking about what people could be potentially offended by, but whether or not it was the intent of the localizer to offend or not. I'm comparing my disdain towards different types of localizers, observing the probable intent behind their actions as the main factor irking me, not expressing my disdain for the American or Chinese censorship complex.
But I guess you could call this desire to prioritize messages they expect will better resonate with American children, parents and community leaders imperialism. It personally doesn't irritate me as much as the purposefully controversial political subversion of new localizations.
>>
>>284811597
I think the only place I actually caught anime somewhat regularly was TV5 back in the day (around like 04 or 05) and maybe some on Cartoon Network (pokémon and the usual) that had a Swedish channel. I did have some Sailor Moon and technically Moomin (though most people consider it a cartoon just cause the source material is fennoswedish) on VHS too.

What's your aim here? I know you didn't stop reading there so what did you think was gonna, I was just gonna forget that gave you not only one but two east Asian examples, with one covering bases by giving a Japanese one that came before pokemon, and I would just go "oh wow you're right"?

This is what I mean by an utterly nosensical persecution complex. Even weirder, you're not Japanese so i can't even imagine how this manifests, a persecution complex for another culture.
Do you just want to consider yourself special for consuming Japanese media so you make up some reality where you and only you are tolerant and enlightened enough to hear a Japanese word without recoiling (even though everyone around you is driving Hondas and Toyotas, to their kid's karate class in the evening before they head out to eat sushi at the karaoke for the night)? You're delusional.

>It personally doesn't irritate me as much as the purposefully controversial political subversion of new localizations.
I mean, that's largely a personal problem that depends on your personal values so I won't really comment on it, I'm not really hot on the American "left" either as far as I'm concerned but not being american myself I could give less of a shit because it's just two wings of the same bird.
If you ask me, all changes fueled by sociocultural interests are bad regardless of the orientation, whether it is something that personally offends my ideology or not doesn't bother me in particular, at worst it makes me a little more irritated just like your case.
Thing is these things are also deeply tied by the specific zeitgeist we live in and are not just tied to foreign stuff, most of the time in fact we have issues with the stuff we make for ourselves because "times change" and we look back at old stuff through a different lens and find some things offensive, or things that were previously thought of as offensive become acceptable.
See how long running IPs often reinvent themselves to appeal to the changing zeitgeist, e.g what happened to stuff like He-Man
>>
>>284812019
>all changes fueled by sociocultural interests are bad regardless of the orientation, whether it is something that personally offends my ideology or not doesn't bother me in particular
I can agree with that. The localization of pokemon Gold/Silver , as an example, is complete garbage compared to the Japanese original. It's the main reason why I play it raw. Monks are actual monks instead of angry cross armed skin heads.
>most of the time in fact we have issues with the stuff we make for ourselves because "times change" and we look back at old stuff through a different lens and find some things offensive, or things that were previously thought of as offensive become acceptable.
That is true. Old stuff I used to find egregious, such as movies like Sharknado or games like ET or Shadow the Hedgehog are fine and enjoyable by my standards today.

This is quite possibly the first time I've seen anyone claim that there's actual "nostalgia" for the hack Cardcaptors dub. Even at the time, the consensus seemed to be it was horrible, especially how they tried to edit it to elevate Syaoran to being an equal to Sakura (and failing miserably despite their best efforts).

What do you call old localizers only ever censoring anything gay like pic related no matter how chaste it was while leaving all the straight stuff intact no matter how sexualized it was then?

There are no "cut episodes" in the original dub. Why do you retards still not understand? they skipped ahead to episode 8 for Cartoon Network and Kids WB, and later dropped it due to poor ratings, but even then, they re-cut a later episode to include a full episode 1 flashback. The show was dubbed and aired completely on dvd and in Canada.
>>
>>284810717
>Then they replaced it with this abomination during reruns.
wrong, retard. They are two different dubs, dipshit. The first dub was another ocean-funi colab that never made it past 13 episodes, while the 2000s complete dub was by Ocean's budget studio. The second theme is a localization of the French opening.

I just watched the first episode for the first time. The animation is cute and the colors are really nice.
Maybe it's just my lolicon instincts kicking in but I did notice how there were tons of low-angle shots focused on Sakura's legs and skirt, and how her school uniform exposes her legs almost up to her butt. The little bit after the episode with Kero-chan looking at her uniform in detail felt way hornier than anything I'd expect from a kid's show.

And Toriyama eventually spoke out about how much he disliked that shit. Part of the reason Goku was the way he was in Super was to hammer in to fans that Toei Goku was not what the character was actually like.
>>
>>284826175
wasnt because Toriyama started to pander to the american DBZ fanbase because they were the ones who kept the IP alive in the US during the 2000s because of the games?

Also Kai only was made beause of 2 reasons, they fucked themselves with the Pokemon Porygon histerya they still to this day believe it was real (it wasnt) and could not air OG DBZ with the flashy lights, so EVERY SINGLE SCENE that had light effects got poorly traced on photoshopped.

And also Kai was just filler slot.

I had just looked it up. Nothing I said was incorrect. Nelvana is a Canadian company; the "major" edits, such as "making Li-kun the protagonist", were exclusive to the American market, specifically for Kids WB. CN and them did not finish the show, but all of the episodes were dubbed. That's not the same as, say, a 4Kids dub, which outright has missing episodes.

>muh Frankfurt
Destroyed after WWII, re-created by Dr Money in American universities. Current troon ideology and literature doesn't come from Frankfurt School, it comes directly from Money's work.

The concepts of gender and sexuality being social constructs that are used in all of medicine and social sciences today comes from Money as well.
>feminism
Buveaur was the precursor to modern feminism, but modern feminism was gestated entirely in American academia and denounces Beauvoir as a bigot.

Current black worship and the insistence on retarded shit like reparations all come from America.

Other shit like intersectionality and critical race theory (the basis for the entirety of the modern woke movement) are theories created entirely in American academia and sold to the world through American propaganda (Californian movies and TV series, American social media.)
