Re: something interesting about 4kids

If someone were really cagey... really smart... they'd leave it completely uncut... with the curse words in, and let the MPAA rate it 13+. No dubs, just subtitled... with the curse words in there.. maybe just softened a little to slip it by the censors.

Then preface the shows opening with some adds saying things like.

"You think you know what One Piece is? You don't know jack. This time, try watching One piece the way it was intended to be seen. In the original Japanese. All the fights (shot of luffy being shot in front of Zoro and attacking the marines), all blood (zoro and mihawk duel ending), all the action (the two giants fighting), all the adventure (Skypia arc shot of them entering heaven's gate), This isn't your typical anime...Onepiece, Rated 13+"

And in the back ground you have some of the edgier scenes... like Zoro getting slashed by Mihawk, and some of the other more violent scenes (but not the one with Bellemere getting killed... save that for later)

The kids would eat it up, I'll bet.

They'd start looking up all the curse words.. and before you know it you'd be hearing kids shouting Kuso at the playgrounds.

Yeah, you'd get some parents complaining, but so what? The draw you'd get from kids who are watching "forbidden" stuff... or stuff that hasn't been sanitized till it's lost all it's comedic or entertainment value would more than make up for it.

The Japanese and subtitles might put kids off at first... but they'd quickly learn to adapt.

The thing is... noone's really tried it. Everyone automatically thinks it would fail because they underestimate kids. They think that they're stupid.

The thing is, kids are sharper than you give them credit for... and they're really curious about stuff that stands out as different.
