美国有两个版本的圣斗士/Knights of the Zodiac
第一个改得面目全非，最好笑的是把血染成蓝色，称之为“汗” [s:22] 这个版本只有32集就停了。。。在网上看到这个版本的片头以及几集的片断，感觉超怪。。。
第二个据说忠实于原版，做了60集，东映就不给版权了。我也没见过
from wikipedia:
The US "Knights of the Zodiac" version was heavily panned by fans of the series, due to the extensive amount of editing used to remove the violence, bloodshed, and religious themes (blood was colored blue and called sweat; fans have joked that characters "bleed Gatorade", characters were imprisoned rather than being killed, and in a particularly infamous change among fans, when Shiryu let his blood flow to repair the damaged cloths it was called his "mystic energy"). While the characters retained their names and the bulk of their back stories (only Phoenix Ikki's back story was changed for the US dub, with his evil mentor Guilty and his daughter not dying, simply being separated), Saori Kido was turned from wealthy corporation owner to a princess named Sienna in the US dub. The US dub also featured all new music, most notably a cover of the A Flock of Seagulls' song "I Ran" as its theme song performed by the punkrock band Bowling For Soup.
Also, the characteristics for some characters (especially Hyoga, who talks like a stereotypical surfer) are diverse from the original version, that is one of the reason of the panning.
Another factor in the show's failing was low ratings, which led to Cartoon Network moving the show to 12:30 a.m. late Saturday/early Sunday morning timeslot. The series was pulled after 32 episodes.
ADV Films, sensing the backlash, quickly rushed out an uncensored DVD release of the series with the original music restored and the US voice actors providing a more serious accurate dub. The DVDs were successful and appealed to the hardcore fans of the show and quickly went up until episode 60 of the series before ADV Films stopped production of the series. According to ADV Films, they originally only bought the US rights to 60 episodes and that Toei, for unknown reasons, decided to not renew their contract with ADV Films to allow them to dub and release the remaining 54 episodes. As it stands, ADV Films has implied that they will at least attempt to get Toei to allow them to release the remaining 13 episodes of the Sanctuary Saga (which makes up the first 73 episodes of the series) and have re-released the single disc sets of Saint Seiya into two 30 episode/6 disc box sets to drum up interest in the series, but no move has been made yet.
It is unknown whether or not The Hades Chapter OVA or any of the other following soon after titles will ever be licensed in the US, but some speculate that since the 2003 Hokuto no Ken (Fist of the North Star) OVA series Shin Hokuto no Ken (New Fist of the North Star) was given a full US release, despite the fact that the original series went unlicensed past episode 36, it may be possible. |
