Disrespecting A Classic Taiwanese Puppet Show
jeremycrimsonfox31 January 2020
Wulin Warriors is a dub of Pili, a puppet show from Taiwan that aired as far back as 1985. Basically, it was aired on Toonami, despite protests from the block's co-creator Jason DeMarco, but was cancelled after two of the fourteen episodes were aired due to bad ratings and complaints (then again, it was a puppet show airing on a network that was supposed to air cartoons 24/7).

But the main problem is that this dub is so horrible, it is disrespect to the original show. The theme song is a stupid hip hop song that basically makes most 4Kids theme sound like masterpieces, and characters are ruined. Mainly the character of Scar, whose Pili counterpart, Ye Hsiao-Chai, was a mute, but here, he is voiced by Sean Schemmel (famous for being the English voice actor of Goku), and he spews some awful one-liners (like the infamous one in the first episode where he asks Lone Sword, the main protagonist, pizza-related stuff, including consulting to what he calls a "pizza oracle"). Also, some of the names are horrible (one character, a female mercenary, is called Rainbow, while another is called Crybaby). This is a horrible dub, and Cartoon Network should have taken Jason's warning seriously and rejected it.

Warning: Spoilers
.. what was CN thinking a puppet show on a network called Cartoon Network, the plots are dull the voice acting is cringe and doesn't match the puppets the characters are annoying and forgettable the scenery looks cheap the puppets look super creepy one of the worst shows Cartoon Network has ever put out at least secret mountain fort awesome had a budget, and not to mention this show is incredibly boring it's impossible to watch an episode without falling asleep I feel bad for any kid who watched this brainless nonsense this show probably gave kids nightmares it should've stayed lost media and should stay forgotten.
