If this doesn't contain AT LEAST loli nipples, the line "couldn't be aired on TV" will be complete and utter bullshit, considering what they DID air on TV: rape, breast sucking, lactation, and BDSM.

I really hope this show gets licensed just so I can how insane it is. Unfortunately, Media Blasters are probably the only company who would, but they aren't exactly in the best of shape.

Bring on the illniz! Remember that "Seikon no Qwaser" is Japanese for "no friggin' way this gets licensed in North America."

Don't let the "unairable" tag fool you; this is exactly the not-done-for-the-series-but-we'll-make-it-a-feature-for-the-purists, Episode.5 that it is.

This has all the earmarks of one of the chapters in the manga (Ch 16 to be exact). My guess is that because it introduced a character that is seen only a couple of times--introduction included--and because it reveals a character secret sooner than was done in the anime, they felt it was unnecessary for the series. Never mind that because that character isn't introduced, the penultimate battle is radically different between the two media...

Which just makes no sense to me: if it was going to added back into the story back in all along, why take it out in the first place? When added back, it just makes the ending that much more useless.

Ohhh, why can't the entire series of Seikon no Qwaser be all about Katja? Crying or Very sad

I'm curious on how exactly a series that was unairable and censored to hell but was aired anyway could have an episode that was even worse and what it's content might be. On second thought scratch that I don't think I want to know.

I don't understand why people get all worked up about the word "unairable."

I realize that the implication is usually that the content will be "worse" or "more offensive" but they're not explicitly saying that. They're saying... they couldn't air it, without providing a reason.
