Line 61:
* Not many people know of Singapore's English dub, done by Odex. Not even ''Singaporeans''. Mainly due to the fact that it only did the first 104 episodes. Even fewer people know that Odex got their license ''before'' [[4Kids! Entertainment|4Kids]] did.
* '''[[Misblamed|TOEI]]''' [[They Just Didn't Care|Just Didn't Care]]: Contrary to popular rumors, 4Kids never wanted to acquire the show. The true reason why it landed in their hands was because Toei desperately wanted to sell a license for their smash-hit ''[[One Piece]]'' to '''anyone''' who would air it on American TV. Thus, when 4Kids came over to Toei with the intent of licensing ''[[Ultimate Muscle]]'' and ''[[Ojamajo Doremi]]'', they wound up receiving ''One Piece'' in addition to the two series they were shopping for. They never watched a single episode before agreeing to the deal, and as the masters rolled in, they became increasingly shocked at what they'd gotten themselves into -- Toei's control-freaking over the series couldn't have helped. The result of this was overreaction on 4Kids' part (even more than usual), which led to the notorious [[Macekre]].
* [[What Could Have Been]]:

** Preview showings of the 4Kids version apparently had a different opening, one that used the overall music of ''We Are'', but used new, different lyrics. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrHO6DtFJ-Y It was uploaded to Youtube for all to see].
** Blackbeard's crew was originally going to include his mother and two sisters; these would be [[Enigmatic Minion]]s who would appear and disappear ominously. Supposedly, this would be a reference to [[Macbeth| that unmentionable play by Shakespeare]], with Teach representing the protagonist and his family members as the Weird Sisters, but this idea was scrapped.
* In the Fishman Island arc, citizens were coerced into stepping on a picture of Otohime. Something similar happened in real life Japan when authorities wanted to root out christians.
