4KidsEntertainment can eat dog crap for all I care for turning a pretty confound deep story into...dog crap...(guess that means they should eat their own creation). It may be for kids but can you imagine the mass of children who already know of the crap being made by translators? (Those kids who didn't know are ignorant and will fail in school -_-) I will tell you the crap put in the American version:
1) "Heart of the cards" - What an idiotic emo-ish theme. The Japanese version didn't have this shit. In the japanese version, it was "the cards may give me something good or I'm killed".
2) Graphics - Monster relife (Monster Reborn here) was a cross. "That's everything a non-christian fears! OH! NO! CHANGE THE PICTURE! WHILE YOU'RE AT IT, TAKE AWAY ALL VIOLENCE AND REPLACE ALL BLOOD WITH WATER"
3) Death - Even Celebi at the end of the Pokemon Movie was about to die. No one in YuGiOh America dies. They get sent to the "shadow realm", which does not exist in Japanese version. I guess the "shadow realm" is hell because apparently, when you're about to drop 500 feet from the sky from losing a duel, you automatically are transported to hell.
4) Non-sense - Too many goof ups in the American version. Since 4Kids did such a bad job at censorship, they destroy any coverups of goofs in the plot.
5) Lip Syncing - I know what you're thinking "It's anime. They don't lip sync". That's not the point I will make. Anzu (Or TEA for you American watching bastards xD) can amazingly speak without the camera being on her face and she can speak paragraph speeches without any sign of her on the screen. Runon sentences also additional to the fact characters can speak without moving their lips at times as well.
6) Taking away any sentimental value - during the japanese version, you were able to be given at least ten seconds of silence. No characters speak which adds to the atmosphere. I suppose kids like it that people are speaking EVERY SECOND of the show

Okay, enough bashing YuGiOh America.
GX is more of an "action" based show in comparison to YuGiOh's original series. A duel is always completed and every episode needs one. It's not really my taste. It's not quite plot developed for me to become interested. (I've never seen the American version and I don't plan to)
