series. The original episode ended on a very bitter and downer note, with Masaya calling Ichigo by name (But did not learn the truth at that point), and the episode ends with her terrified reaction.
*** They even removed Lettuce's transformation. It's understandable since she's naked through most of it (And not in a Sailor Moon transformation way) but this leads to her never transforming on her own in the dub.

* ''Creator/TelevixEntertainment'' did this with some anime that it distributes in Latin America, such as ''Manga/{{Inuyasha}}'' or ''Anime/FullmetalAlchemist2003'', making visual edits to remove blood and tone down scenes that they considered violent or inappropriate. The most infamous example occurs in Inuyasha episode 1, where a digital bikini was added to Mistress Centipede to hide her nudity (ignoring that bikinis didn't exist in the Sengoku period). However, the scripts do not feature major changes and remain faithful to the Japanese versions, and the visual censorship is only for the TV versions, since streaming or video releases are uncensored.

** Characters who smoked in the original were (surprisingly) allowed to keep their cigars or cigarettes in the dub, though the actual flames and smoke were edited out.



** Any examples of smoking such as cigarettes and cigars were usually kept in the dub, with the smoke or flames removed.

** Overall the anime is much LighterAndSofter compared to the far more Seinen manga. For the most part the blood and more sexual gags are no longer present. Funnily enough Creator/FourKidsEntertainment seemed to go out of its way to insert even more adult humor into the show.
** In the manga, Hanzo has a gimmick of [[TearOffYourFace cutting the faces off his opponents]] and using them for his Tatami Puppet attack. The anime changes this to the faces being absorbed into his arm blade. Leaving his victims dead and TheBlank without any blood.
** A couple early episodes edit out Kid Muscle wetting himself, with the second example turning it into him farting. Later episodes have no problem showing Mantaro wetting himself.
** In the manga and Japanese version of the anime, Bone Cold, a major villain from the No Respect/Gruesome Threesome arc kills Minch, [[spoiler: revealed to be Meat's father]], by impaling him with his HookHand. The 4Kids dub attempts to dance around this by stating Bone Cold only shattered his hip, even though the way the characters behave points to him being murdered.
