4Kids is DEAD. What Does This Mean For Anime Coming to America?

[Shinigami]

Personally, I wasn't all that big a fan of 4Kids, though i give them credit for the original YuGiOh and also, the first 8 seasons of pokemon; they did a good job with those. after that..eh..I dunno. they just didn't do quite as well of a job as they could have with other shows..Sonic X being a prime example.

anyway since they're gone, I guess that just means other dubbing companies like VIZ media and FUNimation will just pick up the slack.

I can't believe Donkey Kong had a show. It looks... disturbing at best. Especially DK. I just want to know why there seemed to be a TV show for everything before. I guess they thought they could make money, but it was just a bad idea.

4Kids is Dead?  How long was I gone for?  Anyways, I wonder if KidsCo is in the US?  If so, what channel is it on?  I MISS Donkey Kong Country, and all the other good Nintendo/Sega shows.

KidsCo is a division of Saban. They currently run the Vortexx block which replaced 4Kids's block on The CW. So it's on The CW on Saturday mornings.

They didn't steal it. It's still on The Hub. It's just also on CW. The Hub is a network that not everyone gets, but nearly everyone probably gets CW. This is kinda a good thing. :/

This is the best news I've heard all day. Maybe now we can stop getting these piece of crap dubs, like one piece.

At least the abomination known as 4kids is no more. Well, I hope KidsCo. does well.

I don't know if I should laugh or cry or both



Alright, I'm going to pick your ridiculous sentence apart piece by piece.  Ignoring the grammar, of course.

hey draco ur an asshole

Why yes, I am!  Thanks for noticing, sugartits xoxo

4 kids had great tv shows

Yes, they did!  I admit that.  I even say that in my post:  "4kids had it's jewels, but quality has decreased recently"

so id shut it if i were u

Or what?
I don't like empty threats, babe.

All I did was voice an opinion and all you seemed to read from that was "LOLOLOLOL 4KIDZ SUXXXX".
Which was, despite what you think I said, not what I said at all.

4Kids was my childhood. But, finding out about their...recent stuff, it's somewhat bittersweet to see them go.
