Well, I said I wasn't gonna post. But, how often do I listen to myself?

I pretty much hurt EVERYWHERE. 4 hours straight of sword work, katas and what not. Then another couple of hours on the machines... then another hour of Wii sports.

And for today, mowing my jungle of a lawn. Half an acre isn't exactly a minor task.

OH, I sat down to watch the english dubbed One Piece episode on Saturday. I've pretty much been just reading the manga, so I haven't had to endure the attrocity that is 4kids dubbing. I was almost in tears as to how bad it sounded, and all of the rampant censorship. The episode was Zolo (son of a !@#$% it's ZORO, the best swordsman ever) vs. Mr. One (a guy who's made of steel and can turn any part of his body into a blade). Ok... both people are using blades, there's gonna be blood right? WRONG, they can't have blood on TV, that would be horrible, there could be kids watching. No, Zoro (it hurts to type it with the L) gets hit with a one-two buzz saw punch, and all that happens is he's winded and his clothes are "darkened". It's not even a decent censorship. He's supposed to be covered in blood, and instead of redrawing it, they just splice in a non-matching shot of his clothes smudged. Bleeding from the mouth? Most people would do that after that kinda of trauma, but nope, all that happens in "4kids One Piece world" is that apparently your mouth no longer moves when you talk. Gods I'm glad Funimation is taking over and rereleasing the episodes.

I think I'm gonna stick to the manga from now on... in fact, I need to go reread that section just to get all of the horrible one liners and puns and censorships out of my head.
