What Was Your Favorite Saturday Morning Cartoon?

[CommanderMarty]

One Piece had the worst censorship on 4Kids.

(But I found a part where they forgot to censor the blood)

[elyss]

ooooh yeah. I was watching the anime on crunchy and scratching my head a lot. There comes a point when you really shouldn't bother buying show rights imo

[CommanderMarty]

I believe they got it on a package deal.

[elyss]

Ew. At least we're beyond that now... As far as I know anyway.

[CommanderMarty]

adult swim censors some anime. (They censored Fire Force, I know that)

[elyss]

Censorship I can get over, you can usually buy the uncensored version once it's all out (except Tokyo Ghoul cries). It bugs me when there are two different stories going on with the same source material. Watching something like Dragon Ball in English with English subtitles is a perfect example. It's wild to see and frustrating to get around.

[CommanderMarty]

I actually have the entire run of One Piece from 4KIDS downloaded onto my computer for archival reasons.

(Also off topic question but have you watched Berserk?)

[elyss]

I haven't but it's been heavily recommended to me. It's my too long list atm. Though I'm mega bummed at the CGI reboot. It looked so gross

[CommanderMarty]

Don't watch the CGI one. Watch the one from the 90s and watch it dubbed.

(The dub is better than the japanese audio, I'm not even kidding there too)

[elyss]

Will do~ I'll probs dive into the manga at some point too. I hear the creator is nutters and does it all on his own

[CommanderMarty]

The manga is a masterpiece and its the best drawn manga I've ever seen.

[elyss]

All the rec I need

[CommanderMarty]

This is the art from the series.

[elyss]

Berserk and Vampire Hunter D artists on another level from us mere mortals

[CommanderMarty]

One downside to the masterful art is the amount of time it takes to get a new chapter.

Good observation! 4KidsTV had a lot of anime on Saturday mornings when I was growing up!

If you didn't live in Canada, it's probably why you never heard of it.

[lynestjules]

We had basic cable at home when I was a kid, so being a French Canadian (not in Quebec), I'd watch both French and English speaking cartoons.

My favourite Saturday morning cartoons were:

• Candy Candy
• Jem & the Holograms
• The Racoons
• She-Ra
• Rainbow Brite
• Touftouf et les polluards
• Beetlejuice
• Les Pierrafeux
• Scooby-Doo

I grew up during an epic time for Saturday morning cartoons, I'd be able to list at least ten more titles minimum.

The Raccoons!!

[colorgoat]

Ahhh, Pokemon was the big one for me. Still is. I've watched Journeys on Netflix 3 times already.

I liked Sonic X and Yu-Gi-Oh when I was little, too (no I didn't know how to play the card game and wasn't interested in learning)
