It doesn't matter if Smile is dubbed by a different company. Viz Media redubbed Sailor Moon after DiC/Cloverway dubbed it, and Viz called it Sailor Moon.

Americanizing is the worse excuse because schools have social studies where students learn about different cultures in other countries. And you're saying the audience would not understand Japanese and Europeon culture the same way as learning world history in schools? Has the Madeline book series ever been Americanized? No. It's set in France, and kids understand that.

Seizures never happened in the original Smile, so there's no reason to dim the scenes. Japan learned what happened to it. Are people that lazy to turn down the brightness from the TVs menu settings.
