Newly airing anime series Ladies versus Butlers! (universally known as れでぃ×ばと! / Lady×But! in Japanese), adapted from a light novel series of the same name, has instantly attracted favourable attention, along with comparisons to top oppai anime Kanokon.
Viewers had initially been led by previews to think censorship marketing shenanigans were afoot:

However what was actually broadcast was rather different:

Doubtless not the last that will be heard of this series.
I find amusement in this series.
Umm these scenes weren't in episode one of the show. Is this from from promo episode?
Convenient censoring is not uncensored ....
Are these screen caps from the Promotion Video? Because I have episode 1 of Ladies vs. Butlers and I don't see the bath scenes anywhere.
Screw the promotion video and download the REAL episode 1 from which the pics were taken.
Fresh loli! Yay!
there is no *actual* loli here.
dropped like lightning.
Must watch.
What happened to the days when companies just normally censored things with black?
Nice ! Been waiting so much for the first episode to be aired of this anime, looks delicious...
The first episode of this has a lengthy face-sitting scene, so in my book it wins 2010, and possibly this decade. :D
Normally they save stuff like this for the OVAs, I'm impressed
It looks like 2 episodes are up on animesuki now
It reminds me of kanokon :3
Why don't you mention what channel it airs on in these sorts of articles?
I'd say it's absolutely relevant in articles about censorship, and it's a bother for everyone that cares to look it up for themselves.
I agree because the one I watched was fully censored like the pictures above. I would like to find the uncensored version from the channel that aired it.
:D THIS is why i love anime and japan. This > evangelion, by a million
Hmm, hey Arte! It seems the majority here hate anything ecchi in Japanese media, just going off comments. but... the hit numbers say something else, don't they? Funny that so many are here to redily comment against this kind of anime when the majority of the site consists of articles like this. Interesting stuff, eh?
It's like my parents, when they are watching the news (in my country) even though they know all theyre gonna see is celebrity gossip, and they just complain about how that's all they talk about the whole time, while they keep watching it. I wonder how many people in the world are like my parents and like to repeatedly contribute to that which they hate. Maybe the majority of pop music sales are from people who actually detest pop, lol.
I LIKE ecchi. I HATE the fact that we're getting nothing BUT ecchi, season after goddamn season!
no we're not... why are you thinking that way?
most of the popular shows are actually just moe and moe is not the same thing as ecchi
Do i really need to look up all the non-ecchi anime from 2009 and make a list for you??
Commenting behaviour is basically independent of popularity, and with less than 1% of people commenting it is rather foolish to take them too seriously.
This show is so extremely bad that any amount of fan service can not make it even remotely worthwhile. Kanokon is significantly better than this crap.
That's saying something.
Me too
Seems like it might be a little more generic than I thought though
15:46 was meant to be in response to the comment about loli. Bah.
... It looks like they got all their character designs by hitting "random" in Artificial Girl 3.
fukken lol'd
She insists she is 19, the main character ain't falling for it.
I love boobs period.
Reverse trap spotted.
All I have to say is.. thank god for AT-X!
Bottom left looks like my waifu. Yes, both of them.
FUCK U ALL LOSER SHITHEADS XD!!!!!!
hurray for humanity
Sorry. There is no way to watch Ladies versus Butlers! online. Flat out impossible. Nope.
Don't worry, the lolis doesn't have any roles...
Also, my eyes burned out from the fat girl.
The one I saw was censored.
Tan girls? gotta watch.
You will be surprised when you know who they really are.
I can see a loli!
Gonna check this out...
lol, Your avatar shows us just how happy you are
I've always thought ichiro's avatar really suited his posts =p
Actually, I think that that avatar is just way to perfect for all his posts. So far, each time that he comments on something, the avatar just hit the spot. He could write "I came", "I want", "I like it small" or anything, his avatar does the rest of the work :P.
Sexy! =L
yes, but censorship ruined everything!
What censorship? The point is that it was shown uncensored, unlike the ads for it.
top-right corner is serious business.
SERIOUS LOLI BUSINESS! WOOO
Read carefully. SanCom is serious business.
:(
No way this was aired on TV like this in Japan. I thought they stopped doing that and only do that for pay channels like ATX now?
You're right. Because this airs on ATX.
a webo, la censura me pela el webo y la tuerce
por fin sacan algo chingon sin censura mae..
But it had been aired uncesored.
