Question: I hate to say this, but when I saw a Disney movie in Japanese subtitles, there WAS swearing! You believe me!?
The movie was "Beauty and the Beast"!. Originally the line was "doggone it", but it apparently got translated to "pissed off" when seen in the subtitles!.
Other Disney movies might do this too! Like most anime does!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I've found this in many movies, not only Disney!. Sometimes the translations are a little confused and sometimes certain cultures don't see certain words as bad as others, thus resulting in a swear like translation!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
Pissed off is swearing!?
Doggone it is an American term, so I'm not surprised that it would be changed for Japanese audiences!.
Japanese wouldn't understand what Doggone it means!. They would not understand the reference that it's a slightly nicer form of God damn it!.
also most anime does not have subtitles with cursing when translated from English!.
Anime has cursing in it and the subtitles reflect that!. The curses are removed for the dub because of censoring!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
