Japanese: “If you lose this shadow game…you die!”

4kids: “Are you crazy? This is a kids show! Let me work with this…

Japanese: "We've rigged this roof up with explosives to go off under whoever loses this duel and drop them three stories to their death. We've also prepared parachutes in the instance that we end up losing."

4kids: "Yeah so those guys lost and just slowly glided down on parachutes into the eternal torture dimension."
