I'm guessing Honneamise is uncut, right? Always found that scene awkward.

I heard that it is uncut, but they're doing something to make that scene skipable.

I've never seen it, but I hear the issue something to do with sexual assault?

There's an attempted rape scene in it lasting about a minute. It looks like they left it in for the original theatrical release (rated 15) but cut it out of the home releases (rated PG).

And yes, the scene is awkward and was unexpected after previously watching the UK VHS then watching the Bandai Visual/Honneamise release.

There's been discussion about that scene with Andrew since they showed the film (at SLA IIRC). From Newswire 4:

Quote:
We can also confirm that as things stand the film will be presented in it’s complete uncut form, however (all going well) we are intending to make the scene that was removed from the original UK home video release (many years ago) chapter marked to make it easy for those who don’t want to watch it to skip past it.

It felt very out of place and tone wise very wrong.
