Thread: Would've Dawn's skirt been lengthened if 4kids dubbed DP?

No girl in real life(at least from what I saw in Malta) wears something so short. I've been to teen parties where girls wear the shortest of skirts, and nobody wore a skirt as short as Dawn's. They wore skirts, yes, but not so... short xD. I asked my sister and she told me that wearing such a skirt would be embarrassing.

Oh and do you guys remember the infamous butt scene?(it was posted in the captions thread some time ago and it didn't get removed, so I think it's okay to post here as well)

Dawn's Butt:

There's just no way that 4kids wouldn't have edited that.

Ok, I don't think I've seen that until just now.

I honestly have no idea if they would have changed her skirt (or added leggings), but I can't help wondering about what MizuTaipu said:

Wait what episode did that come up and was it removed in dub?

-_-

I'm starting to wish 4kids dubbed DP. *shivers*

I also think she looks older than 10, I mean DP ash was implied to be older than 10 years old and she was the same height as Ash was.

Regarding that pic, its just her legs being moved in a marching fashion that gives you impression that the "line" is her backside, when in reality its just her leg being lifted up.

well the butt itself is just an extension of the legs that goes up and makes a butted shape around the pelvic region.

pretty much the end problem is from the animators being kinda lazy.

on Topic, yeah, it would have been extended(if only for the scene above at least) but this an edit I would have lived with. at least it's not total overkill like in Viz's infamous edits to female outfits/cleavage/bust sizes in the Early Pokemon Manga.

too short shorts isn't good and looks stupid
instead of shorts, they can put three-quarters
