I've got some titles, what're yours? Bust to Bust is good, but this vanilla is getting stale.

Getting Bust to Bust for sure, so long as the censoring is as minimal as it was for Shocking Pink!. Of course, I'd rather have no censoring at all, but I was able to tolerate the aforementioned title's censoring.

They hadn't even decensored them? I understand why hentai scanlators don't (it's time consuming and requires drawing skills if the censorship is particularly encompassing), but when you're paying for something, that's the prime reason to buy hentai legitimately.

Many of their releases so far have been censored from what I hear, though some of it may be the pencil thin black bar type that you almost don't notice.

I read somewhere that their first announced uncensored release was Love Hair, announced earlier this year but not coming out till next year.

Thankfully these 4 titles will be uncensored, but would like to know about the other couple dozen titles they announced recently. Would also be nice if their website was more clear about censorship status.

They edit their 18+ BL titles, too, so not like they're screwing over the people that are buying these titles that do get censored.

I don't remember clearly, but they may have had to keep the black bars as a licensing requirement, if I recall. Although that may not be the case, if what was mentioned above is really a company practice. They weren't all that obtrusive, as opposed to pixelation.

Of course, I'd rather have it uncensored, but I enjoy the series too much to not buy a copy for myself.

Censorship is censorship regardless of what means it is. And it's bad.

And I know how most hentai tanks come as far as censorship, either a black, greyed out, or white bar over the stragetic areas. There's never pixelation unless it was downloaded from somewhere like DLsite, or a doujinshi artist for some odd reason decided to use it on his physical publication. In any case, decensoring the images is why people in the West place any value over pirated volumes from Japan.
