I now know how bad FUNimation's mutilation truly was (although they did manage to sneak in some humor where it didn't exist in the original, it can't compensate for the dumbed down, TV-Y7 version they offered America). 

My only complaint about the Japanese version?  No Sean Schemmel.  Srsly.  Masako Nozawa = No.  What is this, Naruto? 

All in all, though, the uncut original is far superior.  The music isn't retarded, the dialogue is actually engaging, episodes are stitched together coherently (to the point of reeling in wayward former fans), characters swear and strut and are generally more interesting and realistic, and that one guy was decapitated.  And there's blood, buckets of it.  Plus the dream sequence of Embodiment of Fire is the same, though the episode title is different, which is really all I wanted anyway.  So thank you, Lindsey!  :D

* - Pic not related.  Except in that if I were FOX, I would hire Ben Stiller to direct the LAM.  Instead of that dumb ass who hired a music composer who thinks the overall tone is "a combination of Transformers and Harry Potter".  There had better be some fucking blood is all I have to say about that upcoming disaster.
