\\\"Many, many, many edits 4Kids made to make sure any reference to death in the Battle City arc was replaced with being \\\"sent to the shadow realm\\\". \\\"
Let me note, my two kids found the Shadow Realm concept \\\'\\\'scarier\\\'\\\' than just dying. The SR means you\\\'re tortured until you\\\'re released; death means you\\\'re dead. Really really bad idea, 4kids.
\\\"The villainess Gel Sadra, who had a bad case of being voiced by a man in the original, was changed into an alien male (\\\"Mallanox\\\") for the dub and had her tragic backstory (being kidnapped from the remains of a blown-up ship by the Big Bad that orchestrated it and mutated/rapid-aged) cut out. Saban had also claimed that Berg Katse (or \\\"Lukan\\\"), the villain of Science Ninja Team Gatchaman, was Mallanox\\\'s father. When it came time for Gel Sadra\\\'s backstory to creep back up, Saban then tried to re-instate her original origin and then gave her a FEMALE voice when in unmasked form to assert that yes, really, Mallanox was actually a woman. \\\"
Of course, they didn\\\'t include that Berg Katse was a shifting hermaphrodite / chimera that switched between male and female, which might have made their interpretation of Gel Sadra / Mallanox make something resembling \\\'\\\'sense\\\'\\\'.
