4kids Entertainment, & the now defuncted DiC productions & Saban Entertainment were well known of Americanizing such shows as One Piece, Sailor Moon, Maple Town, Samurai Pizza Cats, Hallo Spencer, Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, & many others.

Any person from the Americas but usually means someone from the U.S.
Contrary to the popular opinion of other countries (France,England, ect.) we are not all fat, stupid, arrogant, and violent. We still have the leading education system in the world, we are well aware that 1/3 of the world hates us and are not war mongers. If people want to criticize us for stereo typing they should at least avoid using stereo types in their argument. True we do have a obesity problem because of a high fat diet with little exercise to compensate. This is mostly because are nation is spread out across a vast distance and drive everywhere because of that.We are not violent rednecks our country has only fought wars when we believed necessary for the security of our citizens. Which if you look at the middle east and Europe where pretty calm. Also most of you owe your freedom to the U.S. for saving you in world war 2. So next time you say Americans are stupid, dum, violent, and arrogant remember we are leading in education, we saved many countries from being taken over by Nazi Germany. Also we are not all monolingual, all states now require 2 years of the same language to graduate and unlike other countries that require you to learn the native language before getting citizen ship the U.S. does not, in fact we don't even have an official language.
P.S. it's not arrogant to defend you country from slander.

Ese americano es muy amable, inteligente y tiene un excelente español.
For those you who aren't Bilingual maybe you should quit mocking the U.S. and learn some Spanish so you can translate that.

The easiest and quickest excuse to get a Polish girlfriend. If you say that you're an American and she's free (single), Polish girl will be extremely friendly. Remember to talk in an American accent, and perfect it.
Polish girls cannot understand the fact that some American men are poor. They will always think American men are rich and smart. You can't convince them otherwise. In a weird, autistic way. (lol) They are so naive they consider alcoholism and fat American men to be a sign of "manliness". (A product of their isolation from Western society.)

Canadian guy: How do I get with an extremely good Trophy girl?
Englishman: Just talk to a Polish girl and fake that you're an American. Talk with an American accent. She'll think you're rich as shite.

A species of individuals who believes that they do everything right, while the rest of the world does everything wrong. Usually they worship celebrities, politicians, and everything from the magical TV box.
They are inhabitants of a tyrannical system, the sheeple are gullible and morally support genocide of any country for any reason. They tend to believe anything delusional, like jet fuel melting steel beams, Facebook being cool, or Google being a good way to research.

The status of being from the USA, technically anyone from Nprth America, but most people use the former term. America (USA) is fueled by a vast array of citizens, most are stereotypes by some other race/religon in there own country. The south tends to be more stereotypical, that doesnt mean ALL people are stereotypical. The Gaverment is corrupt, they are nothing but evil Hell-bound politicians that only care about themselves...proof? Dick Cheney and George Bush. America has so many laws pertaining to political correctness that it is slowly turning its citizens against it, can't even say "Under God" in the pledge in school. Alot of Americans are under false pretenses that "America is the best country ever!", when its not. Massive debt, corruption, rascism, and violence are not things to be proud of, unless your last name is Bush or Cheney.
Unfortunatly, most countries fall into destruction eventually.
A quick rise to power only means a quicker fall.
My name is Nikolai Nikitin, and I grew up in America to an American family for 10 years.

I am so sick of the stereotyping... yes, this has been done before, but I don't care, here it goes again.
Our country is the coalescence of just about every other culture in the world. Although most Europeans think of the average American as being a fat WASP, this is simply not true. There is so much diversity in the nation that it's too hard to generalize.
I am pretty modest and hate bragging, but I have to say that I am fairly intelligent/articulate. I cannot wait to see the rest of the world in its entirety. So many Americans around me feel the same way.
Although some people can be ignorant, I resent them, and the same is true of any other culture anywhere.
I will have a celebration the day George W. Bush is out of office. He is perhaps the worst president our country has ever seen... and can certainly stand next to Millard Filmore in the hall of shame. The fact that he was re-elected, it just blows my mind.
But I digress. Back to the point, Americans are not one people. In the same way that British citizens, Frenchmen and Middle Easterners cannot be typified. Our country has accumulated a terrible reputation over the years... but I hope to make friends in other countries anyway.
Say what you will about our excuse for a government, but please, don't think of us in the same light.

British person: Americans are stupid, fat, lazy, ignorant people with nothing to add to this planet.
American person: You're stupid, lazy and ignorant for just saying that. Look beyond the rep.
