Well, as far as I am concern, bad words are not exclusive to American
English (Dub dialogue). Americans tends to use words they have no idea
where the original came from or to use words our of context most of the
time. The "meaningless of words" if you will. Bad words really have no
meanings these days.

I have no problem that Asuka (the dub version) saying words like
"B*tch". In fact, I think it might be something the voice actress added
to the scene through her observation of Asuka's character--to spice
things up. Yes, it is not true to the original but I don't find the idea
offensive either.

My 2 cents and have never watch Dub Eva by ADV film. Have seen Cantonese
version though.
