I just read through the twelve chapters of Rosario + Vampire II,and I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed what I had read. I'm a big fan of the old Jigoku Sensei NUBE,Rocket Princess R,and Shadowlady.This manga reminded me of those times.I love youkai stories ,and this filled the gap.Sure it's cliched,but I'm diggin it.I'm really looking forward to this being animated now.I hope they show more than just the ecchi side of the story.Episode one did kind of suck,but who knows.

I imagine partially this is a money thing, that is, uncesnored DVD sales. Also, some channels probably have a special deal for the uncensored stuff so they can use that as a selling point to boost ratings. On the whole, I whould say that Japan doesn't really censor as much as other countries but it does seem that some things lately have been censored some for whatever reason.

My guess is that part of that is to call attention TO the censorship, if indeed uncensored versions are a big DVD sales draw. Someone probably thought they were being clever too -.- The censorship in Strike Witches, for example, I was happier with. Its intelligently subtle. |

panties, schmanties... who decides that i can't see a panty shot but i can see dead zombies with limbs ripped off, and creatures getting chopped in half, and people being executed in worse ways than even freddy krueger could ever imagine. oh our "wholesome" audience that is too familiar with decapitation, blood flying from katana slicing, bullet holes in heads, and demon possessions that rival the exorcist movies can't even see some girls in panties? well take me away in the paddy wagon anime police for trying to see some guy on guy action in an anime! this isnt like the censored and unshown pokemon episodes that featured james as transgendered or pistols being pointed at ash ketchums head. those were designed for a children's viewership in mind and im fine if they censor that type of stuff, but clearly r+v is not for kids and im not a child. don't censor anything that includes panties for cryin out loud. thats so weak. and just for the record im not a proponent for panties because i get gratification out of seeing them im a guy and i like guys. im just saying dont edit what im to view! next thing you know they won't be showing anything that features any type of girl/girl guy/guy because of the sexual implications on the "moral" fiber of society... grow up anime police. what's next? i fear...

I am surprised that is even considered news. Censorship happens on daily basis especially when it aired on TV. I am also sure that if this show get licensed you can enjoy an uncensored version when you want when you buy the cds. Censorship is a necessary evil when an anime airs on TV. It is often not by the choice of the station, they are usually simply following law.
What do you guys think of shows that are released with pre-built in censorship such as Sayonara Sensei? |

While I do find censorship detestable, at least its "clever" censorship, and is less offensive. The show is watchable still (as watchable as it ever was), at least. It is interesting that revealing shots of women are more "offensive" than violence, though its not entirely surprising. As human beings, we tend to be a little touchy about the human body and, especially it seems, the female form.
