Soft tennis anime Softenni is in its third episode serving up plenty of pantsu-related action, most of which is ending up being faulted by censors for being injurious to disc sales it would seem.
More interesting than the usual DVD sales malarkey is some quake-related “self-restraint”:
“Due to circumstances part of the broadcast has been changed”
Purported to be the original scene:
Apparently even alluding to people drowning is now unfit for TV, even as the same stations endlessly broadcast images of entire towns being swept away…
What?...Did they censored an armpit now that's new. I'll just wait for DVD release but only if the story is really interesting and also my taste in anime fan service.
The fact that you went straight from lolis to sucking cock without considering all the hot female alternatives in between makes me think that you're a little gay in the head. >_>
really? if anything the vast majority of fanservice anime girls today are decidedly non-loli, what with their giant boobs and overtly curvacious bodies and all.
Now anime and manga artists are sweating because they actually have to think of good plots without relying on the distraction of T&A. Sure, everyone likes T&A, but fuck plots have been shitty lately.
So what would happen if, say, a tornado or something similar hits Japan? Would they cut scenes that depict slightly enhanced wind-formations?
Maybe we won't see "beach-episodes" for quite some time, since that would show us animated sea panoramas. And that is something evil and unhealthy for the youth now.
Interestingly enough, i bet that nuclear technology in anime is all well.
I just wonder how long it takes until all that dumbfuckery turns into a serious curve-ball. I mean, the Japanese are pretty retarded, with them voting for Ishihara and all. But even stupid people sometimes notice that something is wrong when everything is going down-hill.
If they want to air anime uncut in Japan, then they need to create a premium channel like HBO. They wouldn't have to worry about censorship and they wouldn't have to worry about commercials, because they would be funded by subscription fees. That's why HBO is able to air such awesome shows and not have to worry about the FCC.
If there was an HBO for anime in Japan, then censorship wouldn't be an issue. Of course, they have to use the 1983 intro before every show...
I just checked out the ATX version and found that out. I wish people would boycott these companies for this kind of crap. I would never buy something from a company that uses censorship to boost sales. I can understand the show being censored on broadcast stations since the station requires them to censor it but censoring on a premium station that doesn't require censorship (especially to the extent that was in this episode) is bs.
I stopped watching the episode when it got to the several minutes of cut scenes. I deleted my episodes and won't be continueing to watch the show.
Because foot fetish/p"o"dophilia (not to be confused with p"e"dophilia) is most of the time not well known outside of the internet. How many people will you meet, which will say straight into your face that they love feet? Not many in real life, but it is not enough that it gets censured. Considering that any bodypart can be attractive, they would have to censur whole persons to avoid any kind of fetishes and paraphilia, but that would be absolutely ludicrous in the end.
Don't bother trying to tell people that it's over-rated. They don't care. They just want to pretend it's great because that's easier than actually finding... More
Is it me or am I seeing some candle wax here? That is got to hurt!
actually the wax used in bondage is a low melting point wax, its hot, and hurts a bit, but wont burn like normal wax would.
and for purposes of finding this post when im not logged in, alidan.

It's actually the boobs on the girl in the back that got censored, but I agree that armpits are damn sexy since Reimu came along.
Trust me, you can see a bit of her nipple through the censor.
Agree x1000
It was definitely the waki that was censored.
Don't worry Hayabusa, you're not the only one. I'd have fapped more if it wasn't for those goddamn animals.
God Damn Animal!
I saw this before watching the episode, thought it was censorship by strawberry jam, and had no complaints.
JOHN! please do something about this site. I'm tired of seeing this same old boring fan service loli crap. it's predictably boring.
Pot some stuff about grown women with big boobs and tentalces. ONLY YOU CAN SAVE US!
You want to try something new? Getting tired of hot lolis? How about trying something new like sucking a cock sir?
The fact that you went straight from lolis to sucking cock without considering all the hot female alternatives in between makes me think that you're a little gay in the head. >_>

Sounds like you got yourself a fan, Mr. Hayabusa. As for this anime, I'm just gonna wait for the uncensored DVD/BR version.
And anon, this site is jam-packed with 'grown women with big boobs.' Just check out Manyuuhikenchou.
Obviously he's talking about me, the savior.
Don't worry man, go in to google, type in "Big Boobs". Problem Solved.
Got a problem with animals do you?
ooooooohhhhhh, so ur still around? ur pathetic! just like da censor annimals!
HOW DARE THEY PUT COWS ON MY COWS!
HOW DARE THEY~!(,゚Д゚)
Yo dawg, I heard you like cows, so I put cows over your cows so you can moo while you moo.
God, No!! You guys even tried to censor my innocent waki service!!!
Ghost censor.
Pedobear was there in spirit...
I see Pedobear is a normal/ghost type pokemon.
Wild Pedobear appeared!
Loli is too scared to move!
Damn you censors.
And I would have exposed myself if it wasn't for those meddling censors...
oooohhhh dos censor guys must pay for this!
^20th century boys

as long as they deliver T&A, plots can go to hell for all I care.
Anon 20:32 is trying too hard. This here is a closet faggot.
i think the censorship helps sales of dvds somewhat by pissing off us viewers.
why bother, we're just gonna download it from someone who buys the DVD anyway...
If ya can't put it on T.V, put it on DVD or Blue-Ray. That's how uncut versions bypass the censors and shit.
se cequye estara buena la serie, pero las matan por esa estupida censura
is this an anime or a zoo?! UNLESS ITS A FARM!
so... this is about tennis?
censor sucks :P
Pic 007 that foot is not right..
An anime with no story, and now the fan service is censored = drop
Wait... so this is about tennis.
They fooled me...
The uncensored version of this is going to be great.
Japan itself is a hypocrite.
So what would happen if, say, a tornado or something similar hits Japan? Would they cut scenes that depict slightly enhanced wind-formations?

Can't wait for the BD...
What's with all the blatant animal-sticker? Damn!, those PETA reach their hands a bit too far
They get off by watching teeny tiny animals.
The pussy stickers were a bit more entertaining, though. In a way. I think.

This airs on a premium channel (AT-X) and it is also censored, so it's not the stations doing the censorship.

I can understand the show being censored on broadcast stations since the station requires them to censor it but censoring on a premium station that doesn't require censorship (especially to the extent that was in this episode) is bs.

How does the foot in picture 7 work?
Because foot fetish/p"o"dophilia (not to be confused with p"e"dophilia) is most of the time not well known outside of the internet. How many people will you meet, which will say straight into your face that they love feet? Not many in real life, but it is not enough that it gets censured.
