Magix Club's Forum _ 4Kids Discussion _ Random 4kids Edit Pieces of Info

Posted by: winxclubrox23 Aug 19 2009, 3:23 AM

I was just looking around randomly awhile ago, and found some random pieces of information involving the 4kids edit.

QUOTE

"The series is aimed toward children between the ages of six and fourteen"

I can't BELIEVE how high the target range started out as! Holy jeez! It's been lowered alot. What is it now? Ages 3-9? Or something ridiculous like that? Anyone in that target range? Anyone? That's what I thought.

QUOTE

"...Other changes include a general weakening of romantic elements contained within the show."

BOO! HISS! CATCALL! Teagan does NOT approve. 4kids should expect a very, strongly worded email in the next few days...

All around weakening? Does that include making Diaspro actually in love with Sky?

I have no idea. They didn't seem to change that one at all...

They do. A very good part is when, in Season 3, Diaspro is talking to the mirror right before Valtor arrives. Allow me to Quote:

4Kids: Why doesn't Sky love me?
Rai: I bet that Peasant girl Bloom is the centre of attention....

Spot the difference?

Haha, wow. That's quite the change there.

Yup. They changed an entire mindset of a girl. (And opinions of the fandom.)
