Default Re: The DIC lost episodes

Believe it or not, a lot of what they did (dubbing via rythmo band, rescoring the show's music, ect.) made the dub cheaper to produce, rather than more expensive. So I don't think they did it because they were running out of budget or anything.

The most likely reason some episodes were skipped actually seems to be for syndication purposes, since you only need 65 episodes of a show to get that. Had they dubbed the episodes in order the show wouldn't have had a good stopping place, but by cutting episodes here and there they were able to get a much better one. Now rather than ending on a filler like the Jupiter/Venus fighting episode (which they would've had they gone in order), they ended with a more important resolution episode -- the last two Black Moon Sisters being healed.

Another reason they probably skipped episodes was due to some having stuff they thought would be too hard to edit, and/or them thinking certain episodes didn't fit in with the storyline they were making for the show.
