Lost in the Translation - AFLAC in Japan

The AFLAC duck is getting a bit of a makeover for the Japanese market. He'll remain a duck, but will lose his voice, or more specifically, Gilbert Gottfried's voice. It appears some feel that Gil's signature sound is a bit too much for even the land of fugu and tentacle sex.

"The Japanese culture does not like to be yelled at," said AFLAC spokeswoman Laura Kane.

But would things be just as ducky without Gilbert? I think not.
