My country still doesn't know anime exists outside of a few kodomo series that aired on TV in the 90s. And I'm glad for that.
Elijah Roberts
Look at those fat thighs.
Daniel Phillips
It doesn't exist, since anime is not shown on TV anymore.
Anthony Campbell
I haven't watched local TV in years. I always watch cable or Netflix. I heard local censorship is getting pretty ridiculous these days, considering cable is lightly censored as well.
Michael Smith
Funny when censorship makes it look lewder than it is. There isn't even pantsu shot.
James Torres
Haven't watched anime on national TV for a long ass time but in the 90s in pastaland they went full retard with the censorship
Any sort of violent scene (even light wounds showing blood), nudity scenes (ie showing breasts like in ranma 1/2) got completely cut off. In some cases plot points had to be changed in order for the episode to make sense, in some cases completely fucking up the whole plot of the anime. Controversial topics and plots that where either considered "too heavy" or inconvenient were completely changed. In some cases just referencing japanese culture was enough to get shit cut or completely changed, making a complete mess of some animes. What's even more sad is that started happening out of nowhere and became a common practice for several years right after we got a stupid amount of animes in the 80s in the purest vanilla form.

america where you can see people graphic
deaths in the news, but can't see two girls kissing in the media
Ethan Foster
Pretty retarded.
They love taking series clearly not meant for children then ripping/blurring half of it out to try to make it so.
This is because of 'animated=for children' mentality. Applies not just to anime, anything not live action is assumed by parents to be targeted at kids, then they get offended and scream "how could you show this to kids?!"

DID SOMEONE SAY JELLY DONUTS?!

i don't watch anime on TV, so I don't know and couldn't care less.
Connor Rogers
I haven't watched dubbed TV anime broadcasts for like 12 years
Joseph Williams
>deaths in the news, but can't see two girls kissing in the media
Obviously.
Luke Gonzalez
L-Lewd!

Netflix censors the shit out of anime. TTGL, KLK, and NGE being the worst offenders in my opinion.
Joshua Mitchell
What was censored in NGE?
Matthew Clark
I wonder what they did during the mom-kissing-son scene.
Levi Martin
Brock isn't so much an example of censorship as it is just goofy localization. Nothing's being hidden.
Julian Russell
rent free
Henry Taylor
They removed scenes where Mineta is assaulting girls. So now he's being punched and hated by everyone for absolutely no reason.
Also All Might don't cough blood. They just removed that gag completely.
Anthony Gutierrez
They totally censored the original where Goku calls Gohan a faggot.
Easton Miller
What about Momo?
Jaxon Rogers
My country bans censorship since we used to be under commie rule so all Anime is uncensored but dubbed.
James Davis
Eh, can't be as bad as Malaysia's.
Julian Myers
They removed a few close-ups on her naked body (when her suit is torn up) but other than that it's actually fine, her suit isn't edited or anything.
It's just a very lazy censorship. They just took the uncensored DVD release and removed the bloody/sexy stuff without any care for the continuity. Though they curiously kept all the swear words, I really don't get it.
Almost makes you nostalgic and impressed at the 4kids days where they would redrew every single frame. That was actual dedication and didn't affect the plot too much. Almost.
Landon Sanchez
Brazil had such a good run with anime before this fucking piece of shit TV channel decided they needed ANOTHER audience show with an annoying ass presenter talking about sjw shit every day and so they cut out the only anime/cartoon timeslot.
If it weren't for that I bet we would be getting dubs of last season anime voiced by Brazilian goku by now. Shit sucks.
Christian Lopez
>without any care for the continuity
That's the best censorship.
Isaac Thompson
Anime in the US is almost never censored anymore because it all airs late at night. The last thing I remember being censored is Kira saying cock in the last episode of Jojo part 4, which is weird and I don't think is usually censored. There was less censorship in the Jojo anime on American TV than there was on Japanese TV.
Brayden Walker
I wonder what they did for this scene
Jace Scott
Seems it's time for Bolsonaro to act and make anime real.
Kevin Martinez
Imagine anime airing at daytime in your country. Metoos raging on the street would be hilarious.
Nathan Ramirez
Old TV5 is better, feels like they put effort in choosing their VAs. And they have replays from 1pm to 5pm I think during weekends.
Blake Perry
I'm Korean
Landon Cooper
Its even lewder when you sensor it.
Henry Ortiz
Is porn still illegal?
Aaron Hernandez
They did show early DB, the whole DBZ, Elfen lied, ikkitousen AND kodomo no jikan uncensored.
But used the 4kids version of YuGiOh even thought they had the rigths of the original uncensored one.
Shit Is weird tho
Jacob Roberts
They cut out shinji and kaworu's bath scene
David Watson
This is why licensed will never be striving industry. Too much censorship or americanization (or should I say africanization?).

Why even bother showing something on TV if you are gonna ruin the experience with censorship? Just find a show that you don't have to censor.
Zachary Carter

Aiden Russell
This.
Charles Morris
There's that later one where the replaced the onigiri with a giant sandwich though.
One piece has it beat with wacky laser guns, or Yu-gi-oh invisible guns.
Owen Butler
>countries that aren't the US censoring their versions (sometimes even worse than the US did in the past, which doesn't happen anymore in the US) is "americanization"
Benjamin Barnes
No idea about today, but in France back in the late 80s/early 90s, violent anime like City Hunter or Hokuto no Ken were dubbed with a very light tone to sound harmless.
Lincoln Campbell
I strongly support a federal censorship regime. I am always glad to see certain content censored, because I find such content to be disturbing.
Gavin Reyes
Nah, they don't do this anymore (it was funny tho). Now that they respect manga as an art form, they wouldn't dare disrespect an author like that.
Instead they translate it perfectly for the DVD release but air it censored like said (TV networks don't give a shit about art, and they don't want parents complaining about "blood in my children's chinese cartoon").
Isaiah Nelson
Have you considered just not watching?
