The reason I'm against this is because if I support Glitter Force then I would be considered a traitor or a 4Kids Lover in front of the whole anime community. So you only hate Glitter Force because most other anime fans want you to? It's perfectly fine to hate Glitter Force, but I want to make sure that's your genuine opinion. If you were to support Glitter Force, the community here would accept that, even if they disagreed.

Here's my opinion: 4Kids dubs are worse than Glitter Force. I can't say much about Glitter Force Doki Doki because I've only watched the first episode, but I can say that most of the episodes are dubbed well. As I said above 75% of the episodes are the same as their Japanese coutnerparts, just with the names changed. I don't mind this, as a character named Emily is just as sympathetic as a character named Miyuki. Plus, the voice acting is quite good once you get past episode 1. However, 25% of it is on the level of 4Kids. 8 episodes are removed, and 4 more are heavily edited/censored for no good reason. The reason I don't dislike Glitter Force as much as a 4Kids dub is that if 4Kids had made Glitter Force, it would be heavily edited all the way through.

Plus, One Piece was originally an adult show, so making it a kids' show would butcher it by definition. That's what makes that dub truly terrible; even in concept, it's just plain bad.
