Actually, 4Kids work is pretty good. I think they do have the best voice actors and aside from the restrictions placed on them by the censors, they at least try to keep the spirit of the show and characters and not completely rewrite it and distort them. True enough. To be fair about CCS, much of the things in that anime is stuff that parents would probably frown upon--such as Li's crush on Yukito (The cause of which was not due to sexuality), the fact that Sakura's father was her mother's teacher and the pseudo-incest yuri (However one-sided) from Tomoyo. Still, it could have been done a lot better. 0_o
I could see Mokuba hitting a bratty phase (heck, all of us do) and Seto being completely nonplussed by it... Me, too *Points shamelessly towards own LJ entries ^_^ * I got tired of reading the same old brotherly fluff fics and decided to write something that deviates from that, which shows the poor kid wanting to be seen for himself but at the same time loving and still caring for Seto. (The newest chapter got eated by a computer virus, though. Hopefully, I'll be able to retrieve it when I take the computer in tomorrow and complete it sometime before Valentine's DaySt. Patrick's Day The Fouth of July. :)
I think it might be part of being a teenager to entertain thoughts of suicide Really? O_O The only time I gave serious thought to killing myself, I was really, really depressed. I didn't think about it before-hand, and the only other friends of mine who thought about it had serious bad shit in their lives (Such as one friend who lost both parents within two years).
I think some of the people writing Mokuba as a depressed emo don't understand depression at all. There was one fic where the author herself claimed to be into cutting and taking drugs, and that story was way out of character. There's no other explaination behind the change besides "Most teens get depressed because of hormones." (Hormones, I guess, explains why Seto apparently didn't try too hard to take Mokuba to a doctor for treatment, or how he didn't seem to notice any change in the kid well before. *facepalm*) I have it excerted at WTF_Fanfiction, if you want to see it. It's horrid.
And to be truthful, most depression fics in every fandom just make no sense.
