The Stars Of 4kids Sing The National Anthem

Okay, picture this: It's the bottom of the ninth, bases loaded, two outs, and the crowd is roaring. But instead of a tense silence before the pitch, the stadium speakers blast… something utterly, wonderfully, unexpectedly 4Kids.

Wait, What's 4Kids?

For those blissfully unaware (or those whose childhoods were miraculously devoid of Saturday morning cartoons), 4Kids Entertainment was… well, let's just say they had a *unique* approach to adapting anime and cartoons for Western audiences. Think heavy editing, rewritten dialogue, and soundtracks that could curdle milk.

But, against all odds, they were also a massive part of many people's childhoods. And, more importantly for our purposes, they employed a stable of voice actors who were ridiculously talented.

The Dream Team

Imagine Eric Stuart (the voice of Seto Kaiba AND Brock from Pokemon!), belting out a soaring high note. It's already epic, right?

Now throw in Veronica Taylor (the original Ash Ketchum) adding a youthful, energetic harmony. You can almost hear Pikachu cheering in the background!

And don't forget Dan Green, the voice of Yugi Moto! He'd bring that calm, confident energy to the lower register, grounding the whole performance.

Why This Needs to Happen

Because it would be the most hilariously amazing thing ever. Seriously, think about it! The sheer unexpectedness of it all would be enough to make anyone smile.

And let's be honest, the National Anthem could use a little… pizzazz. We've all heard the traditional versions. They're fine. They're respectful. But are they FUN?

A 4Kids version, on the other hand, would be an experience. A rollercoaster of emotions. A fever dream of epic proportions!

Possible 4Kids-ification

Okay, let's brainstorm some potential 4Kids touches. First of all, the key change. There MUST be a key change, and it MUST be dramatic.

Maybe a random rap verse thrown in there? Perhaps something about friendship and believing in yourself? You know, the usual 4Kids stuff.

And of course, no 4Kids production would be complete without some questionable editing. Maybe they could replace the rockets' red glare with… uh… a giant sandwich?

“Oh say can you see, by the dawn's early light… what so proudly we hailed, at the twilight's last gleaming… whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight… o'er the giant sandwich we watched, were so gallantly streaming!”

The Internet Demands It!

Look, I'm not saying this is a *realistic* proposal. But I am saying that the internet is a powerful force. If we all band together, maybe, just maybe, we can make this beautiful madness a reality.

Think of the memes! The reaction videos! The sheer, unadulterated joy it would bring to the world! This isn't just about the National Anthem, it's about bringing a little bit of that chaotic 4Kids energy back into our lives.

So let's start the petition! Let's tweet at the 4Kids voice actors! Let's make our voices heard! Let's get Eric Stuart, Veronica Taylor, and Dan Green to sing the National Anthem, the 4Kids way!
