The TV broadcast of induced lactation anime Seikon no Qwaser has incensed fans by broadcasting a second episode even more heavily censored than the first, with scenes of skies and ceiling replacing anything with so much as a hint of sex.
Deliberately censoring TV broadcasts to increase DVD sales is an established tactic, but some are starting to wonder whether this excessive censorship is actually a cunning marketing ploy designed to stoke outrage amongst fans, ensuring further publicity and driving fans onto the online and uncensored “Director’s Cut” version?
It seems to be working…
I'm starting to believe this is a market ploy for people to buy more manga...
You know, I like my fan service just as much as anybody else...but complaining that blatant pornography mixed into a story is getting edited on BROADCAST TV...just silly.
The companies shouldn't be broadcasting if they're gonna have to edit THIS much.
"The companies shouldn't be broadcasting if they're gonna have to edit THIS much."
Precisely. That's the bottom line right there.
I DEMAND ALL VIOLENCE TO BE EDITED AWAY ON ALL BROADCASTS.
Uncensored ver. here!!

Anime Seikon no Qwaser. DEMO VERSION.
If you want more, purchase the DVD/BD.
What a shame.
They might as well have just put it strait to DVD. Well...here's hoping AT-X actually airs it as uncensored as the webcast (or even close would be good).
I'd rather have oppais than moons any day.
At least they're offering the uncensored version early, I guess.
why oh why, there is no need to be afraid of breast milk or those who like to suckle...
Brest Bukkake is the Best!
If this is indeed a plot to get fans worked up to increase DVD sales or publicity, there's clearly only one solution. Don't watch the show and don't buy the DVDs.
i'm so fucken just pissed of by this crappy amine...
On top of that being censored. Who the hell do they think we are ? I just feel no f..cking respect to the public.
Crap, I'm gonna remember this title - not to buy it ever-ever whatever happens.
Awesome anime with not as dumb fanservise as QB has\
and pretty funny, Sashas "Horosho, Vkoosno", man i loled over and over it
AT-X just as censored, looks like they're going the DVD route.
definitely a marketing ploy.
ZA WARUDO!!!!!
the censors! it burns us!
One part of my original motivations for learning Japanese was to be able to watch anime uncensored and unaltered in any way (not butchered to HFIL by American rights-holders). Now I'm basically fluent, and I discover the anime televised in Japan is often itself censored.
Irony.
Сраная Япошка катится в сраное говно...
случайно увидел это на niconico
Полная бредовость одной половины идей и полная шаблонность второй половины просто Ну никаК не позволяют сознанию(как бы оно ни старалось, даже если бы захотело) воспринять эту штуку всерьез.
Единственное из-за чего посмотрел пару серий - очень прикольно было слышать как Александр время от времени умудряется отмочить совершенно не в тему ченить по русски - "борщ, вкусно, хорошо"... нечасто такое услышишь :))
Я вот думаю, может он со временем разовьется, проапгрейдится и начнет материться во время битвы ? xDDD
In other words (from Ru post above)
I'm a simple Russian guy not very obsessed with religion(i mean with church)... I accidently saw it on niconico. Deam, i haven't seen such a crap for a long time(maybe i'm not very fluent with jap so i dont get something ?)
I mean the plot is somewhere between madness and idiotism. While the pantsu service was done so awfully stereotipically. No fun seeing same ass fullscreen for every 2 minutes.
And this milklicking totally killed my attempt to keep serious about whats going on.
well, i was inspired by hearing some russian words though, such as borsh, horosho, vkoosno.
I wonder if there gonna be some rus-lang badmouthing ("mutt" - мат) during tha battles.
Hahahaha people actually give a shit about obscure anime
and why shouldn't they?
we're all for tits and ass... and lots moar tits in this case
why do you do this religion? whyyyyyyyyyyy?
Religion is how the elite class control the masses by making them believe that there are things they should not do, not because it's the law but because God said so. Religion tries establish a popular ethical practice in communities but these often clash with the already establish ethical practices of their (the community) culture.
Um... this is not the Middle East nor is it Middle Ages Europe. QFT
Religion has absolutely nothing to do with this. The references to the Orthodox Church in Seikon no Qwaser are as vague and meaningless as they are every time a manga author includes an "exotic" (to the Japanese) religion to spice up his story. Religion has even LESS to do with the censoring.
To save your soul so that you may go to Heaven and watch any damn thing you want to, uncensored.
OMG, Jesus and Mary..
Are religious troops behind this?
Well first of all, any religious troops are going to explain to God why they were even looking up such things in the first place.
Sometimes popularity makes it apparent without them having to look something up.
Take Da Vinci Code for example. I'm sure no catholic clergy was reading that unless people who weren't catholic or were horrible catholics clamor over it.
Then the clergy would be obligated to read it to ascertain that they're not about to condemn a blameless work.
"Yes, I have to uh, watch this Japanese cartoon to confirm whether it, um... is sinful. Yeah, that's it. I'M DOING IT IN THE NAME OF GOD!"
Seems like the perfect excuse, heh
Amen to that.
Yes. If you mean that the a japanese publishers learnt too much from jews.
oh well, ladies vs butlets FTW
I first read this as ladies vs bullets
Ladies vs bullets, the dead hooker arc
same here
Well... at least that doesn't pretend to be serious.
Whew, glad the moe boom is over so we can get quality shows like this.
Successful marketing ploy is successful.
Weird marketing from hell is successful. Hell, Haruhi sold the same episode eight fucking times!
The industry now knows that there are always some Otakus dumb enough to suck up whatever shit they decide to dish out... -_-
That really irritates me because it's true. Big companies only think of people as money.
Not if it pisses everyone off and they go watch butlers instead
ARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ZETSUBOUSHITA!!!!!!!!
wrong ava to say so xD
Are you going to post this every episode?
just like he keeps crying over how bad is FFXIII even tough he doesn't have the game.
It's apparently what you want seeing as you keep coming back to publicly stroke your hateboner all time.
What makes you assume that?
Only if you keep coming back every episode.
Now i see the main criterias for sankaku ...
that's pretty much the criteria for any form of media
