You know how 4Kids sometimes calls onigiri "sandwiches"? Well...

...they've taken it a step further.

This is beyond ridiculous. It's impossible for a sandwich to roll down a hill, but this one did.
 
-_-

You guys get shook up too much. It's just a switch to a sandwich. If you want it to be exactly like the original version, then go download it and watch it. I for one am tired of those donut thingies (whatever they are) - nice to see a sandwich in the show for once.
 
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Sorry, for some reason I find that very funny. It's probably the concept of a rolling sandwich. *snerk*
 
They most certainly can. They've done it many times before.
 
Well, 4Kids basically wipes out every single sign in Sonic X, even ones that are in proper English. Hell, in Ep 28, they edited out the Casino sign and had it as a normal building.

EDIT: Actually, it was 28. In 27, they cut the scene of the cops shooting at Chaos 0.

You = Moron.
 
omg thats hilarious. the sheer fact that 4kids wasted their time with the effort it takes to paint over it makes me laugh. and the idea of a rolling sandwhich...LOL
 
You have to wonder, how much money went down the crapper to edit something as stupid as a rice ball. Seriously, the madness must end at some point.
 
Heh, that's awesome! Okay, so yeah, no rice balls, boohoo. But then they actually went and replaced it with a neat looking sandwich?

Edits, pointless or not, are getting more sophisticated in this age.
 
They could have at least replaced it with a donut.

Seriously though...this is just pathetic. Why bother changing something like that? It's not like the soccer mums have been upset by it at all. They've had plenty of other Asian cultural references that they couldn't cut out (temples, etc), so why this? It's not like we don't eat rice in western culture, and it makes a lot of sense for reasonably poor travellers to be having mainly rice dishes to boot.
 
Oh, Jeebus.

I don't watch One Piece, but I heard on Pokemopolis that they edited in cookies over onigiri and changed a whale into an iceberg. I was thinking, at least they didn't do something like that on Pokémon.... (Somehow forgetting the "prune juice" and the "Pokémon Contest" signs.) Then this. Why?
Stupid americanization. At least those who know nothing of the original will be none the wiser.... Crap.
