Yeah but... it's unfunny.
>>
>>219077972
To mock Japan. Very disrespectful honestly. It was a successful show in Japan. Dubbing it as meme show was super racist. Like if you think american children can’t relate with japanese ghost stories, then just don’t license it. Again, super racist. Each episode actually explains the lore patiently. Because, you know, it’s a show for kids.

Americans are so racist. And they made up this myth how it failed in Japan or something. Very rude. Very dishonorable.

You clearly didn't watch the dub.....

https://youtu.be/m5LjA0gjeX8?si=H0GLzCYlCyi_QlC6

While the reason supervisor Ste7en Foster was able to get away with the dub was because the studio didn't give a fuck as the show bombed in Japan.

Also, if you liked Ghost Stories I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you watch Golden Boy.....

It's just a simple fact that the producers at the time understood that anime is a medium for braindead morons and children, so they had fun with it.

"The anime's original run was overly successful in terms of audience and readership ratings. According to Animedia, the series was ranked 9th out of 10 by readers as the most anticipated anime of 2000.[14] It peaked in the magazine's top 10 anime at least twice: it was given the ninth highest audience rating of 11.8% for December 2000, and was given the seventh highest readership rating of 37.3% for episode 8.[5] The series had an overall top audience rating of 14%, which placed it 12th out of 30 when it comes to anime (2000s era) with a rating of 11% and above"
I don't get this rating system. How is 11.8% good? Is that 11.8% of the magazine's readership has seen it and liked it or what? I am confused. I had also heard that it did poorly and that is the reason Fuji "didn't care" and only gave ADV two rules when making the dub but that seems debunked. I found it surprising that the show allegedly "didnt do well" because I thought it was good even with the serious Japanese script.

i think it was heavily edited/censored here in the UK. broadcast during the daytime, on Fox Kids. some jokes about butts and farts, that was probably the limit.

Kids anime is popular among kids in Japan, but most of them are not big with international anime fans. Even Shin Chan only has a small following. Thwy tried to make it more adult, partly due to some comival nudity from Shin how you can't really do it in US cartoons for kids. They aired it on Adult Swim, but it nevet caught on.
Though I did get a plush of Shin doing the elephant dance.

it wasn't viable for american television because not only was it too scary for what american kids were used to but it also had lots of quite explicit panty shots.

I've watched the subtitled series and it's actually really comfy, comparable to non non biyori just with added ghost stories.
>>
>>219091635
American kids were used to R rated movies thoughbeit
>>
>>219091635
The panty shots weren't removed from the dub were they? I think I remember at least a couple. I torrented it and watched it on 9anime or something. Also watched it on retrocrush or whatever it is.

Western boomers and Gen Xers were SEETHING about anime dominating in the early 2000s and were looking for any oportunity to shit on anything from Japan. The video game journalism media was also shitting a lot on Japanese games.

>>219091876
hehe now I remember Hajime was always after Satsuki's panties. yeah it wouldn't be removed because it was only a DVD release in the USA it was never televised that I know of at least not back in 2005.
Yeah I know parents would complain about a lot of shit just making a joke that me and everyone I grew up with saw R rated movies when we were in like 3rd grade which makes all the stupid karen cunts bitching funny
>>
>>219091990
I went to a rural elementary school where most kids weren't even allowed to watch PG-13 and the couple of kids that had seen an R rated movie or two bragged about it. seems like parents these days don't care about ratings at all but a lot of them were paying attention to them back then. I remember my mom pointing to the "M" on a video game we wanted and not letting us get it.
>>
>>219091918
Momoko rules in the dub though. She seems like a pretty generic animu schoolgirl. Satsuki is probably my favorite in the dub though Hilary Haag rulez.

This kids parents let us watch species for his birthday when we were like 3rd or 4th grade lol... my parents would not have let me watch an R unless maybe it was a really good comedy like kingpin or airplane when there was no pg-13 anyway... or predator if thats R

What are you talking about? It was dubbed by ADV Films, retard. The VA's all work in and love anime.
>>
>>219092196
American dubs change shit all the time, creating false fan fiction. Funimation did it with Dragon Ball, brought up fucking Gamergate in another show, 4kids in general. They don't love anime, they love changing anime to fit their leftoid political ideologies. Not to mention all the casting couch incidents while acting morally superior. Remember kickvic? Sabat threw Vic Mignona to the wolves when he is an actual sexpest.

although as i grow older, i appreciate a good localization more. they took a second crack at the One Piece dub, and the preview they put out was all shit like
>SANJI-SAN! I JUST SAW THAT BITCH'S PANTIES!
i suppose they really wanted to make the point it wasn't the 4kids dub, but it'd be weird writing this juvenile nonsense as if it was originally in English (which is how a dub should come across IMO).

don't give me any crap about 'Japanese culture', obviously they can and do make some great cartoons. and i seriously hope the average Japanese citizen is against shit like middle-aged men ogling junior idols.
