I see what you mean, excessive profanity that's added in. I actually
did a parody of that once, well it was so ingenious that it managed to
parody both excessive swearing and the G-rated dialogue of CCA's
subtitle track. I went into CCA's subtitle track and started changing
all of the lines to include ludicrous amounts of profanity and other
various dialogue (such as "You fairy! You company man!" in the midst
of battle talk between Amuro and Char). I didn't get far with it but I
still have the unfinished script. :P
