@coolboymew Unfortunately this is a problem as old as history, 1001 Arabian Nights was vastly changed and added to when it was brought to a European audience.

  @Zettour @coolboymew Or the studio/director just hates what's done overseas, see Ghibli for example where it feels like they basically do commissions on studios like Disney because Nausicaä got trashed once.

  @lanodan @Zettour @coolboymew There's a loophole in the Ghibli Disney no edits agreement, they just have to get Ghibli to approve the changes. I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet, I've only seen minor changes to the subtitles.
