Oy.....it's bad enough that when we finally got a Kirby series, it was made kiddy as hell. Now 4Kids is going to further tarnish it with one of their home-made movies, just like they did with Yu-Gi-Oh.

Nothing in the blurb said that 4Kids had anything to do with production only release.

You're kidding right? What other way could they possibly make a Kirby TV series or movie but kiddy? It's not exactly the epitome of action and teen angst. Rolling Eyes

erm. I somehow doubt it was anything but "kiddy" orginally.

Kiddy? What did you think Kirby was before? Did you ever actually play any of the games to see what he was like. How could you make a tv show or movie and not have it be kiddy?

That's not to say that kiddy is a bad thing. Nothing wrong with E-rated games (and I know you're agreeing with me, I'm just emphasizing it). It's not like 4Kids ruined the drama that is the Kirby anime. It was probably pretty close to 4Kids' version when it aired in Japan anyways.

Yeah, I remember seeing the uncut version, where Kirby dealt with serious issues like underage sex, heroin abuse and suicide.

Yeah, because Kirby is such a badass.

"It's just the last couple episodes [of Kirby] put together. Big deal. Kirby [isn't that great anyhow]. Jeez. Calm down about it. (I love Kirby and all but it's all right)"
