Japan’s top broadcast watchdog has published complaints denouncing Puella Magi Madoka Magica as unfit for TV.
The nation’s main broadcast censorship body, the BPO, published the following complaint about Madoka:
“It is a late night anime, but it still had scenes of a little girl having her head bitten off by a monster!
The producers have stated their intent to go on profiting from these cruel scenes each week.
Even if it is late at night, it is outrageous for TV programmes to be so flagrantly profiting from this sort of horrible material.”
Notably, Ore no Imouto suffered similar criticism.
Rather less surprisingly, Ochinko has also been coming under fire:
“It may be broadcast in a late slot, but it’s still based on incest. Scenes in which characters expose their underwear with the intent of titillating the viewer are frequent, as are scenes with clothed sexual touching. How does this differ from the contents of an adult manga?
I think this is inappropriate material for age-unrestricted broadcasts.”
Ishihara’s ban will presumably see such filth purged from the airwaves soon enough.

pretty sure i was watching stuff way worse than this on nickelodeon 15 years ago
If I remember correctly there was an episode of rockos modern life where there was a montage of him having different jobs. One of those jobs (though not explicitly stated) was him working at a phone sex line. Which I didn't realize until I saw the episode again when I was older and noticed a poster in the background that said "Be spunky, Be wild, Be sexy" and him saying "Oh baby, oh baby, oh baby." on the phone.
Rememeber the "I used to like rainbows..." episode.
Lol, yeah! I remember that! Loved that show...
Nickelodeon still does stuff like that. Which is why Sponge Bob also popular with parents, and not just kids too.
and I watch Madoka full screen AV to my television and my mom watched it with me lol she approves
Wow, i love your mother..
MILF? Pics please...
Agreed with Arbjarb. I do think Cow and Chicken is way worst than this
I don't think so at all.
moral fags.....enough said.
I blame Kyuubee for starting this shit in the first place.
"All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing" --Edmund Burke
copy and paste from wiki, history repeats itself.
as soon as the moral fags get organized and force their value onto people, while most of the general public dont gives a rats ass, by the time they realized that moral fags are raping them, it is already too late.
urgh
All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for evil men to be called good.
Sadly, good men are in the endangered species list...
Not that you can call the people who put in this ban good people.

@SOTER
So you don't like the type of company I provide?
@utsukushiioto
You really have some issues about me. Writing insulting personal messages and now open harassment. You're probably really lonely. *_*
@SOTER
I thought you liked my company ^_^
@utsukushiioto
Yeah, a company, but not being insulted every time. You apparently misunderstood me. My obnoxious little friend. ^_^
SOTER, I came to that resolution when I was 9 years old. Your mental maturity has decade long ping
@YakomoFujikawa
they were right so fuck you
i smell butthurt fag who thinks hes better than moral fags
Fuck yourself and die shit head! How would you feel if someone died in your family because of this shit! Think about that fuckface!
Are you seriously suggesting you had a family member die after being decapitated by by a magical liquorice stick with a face?
Seriously, people are more likely to have lost loved ones in traffic accidents and the likes, but these are still considered acceptable for use in entertainment. Hell, entertainment even invokes open warfare, which is *much* worse than anything in this cartoon.
If society can deal with the typical summer blockbuster fare, it can deal with this, so stop being a pillock. Thanks.
This is no joke, fellow Anon. Magical liquorice sticks are a serious threat. Last year alone, over ten thousand people were decapitated by magical liquorice sticks.

Fuck yourself and die shit head! How would you feel if someone in your family would become a Puella Magi because of QB's shit! Think about it fuckface!
i doubt that anyone die ddu eto watching this.
Oh what pussies, scared of a little violence.
BPO = Bitchass Pussies Organization.
They are iShitHara's official bitches.
BPO = Butthurt Pansies Organization.
I am with them and will ban anime the they agree with me. So WTF are you going to do bitch? IRL WTF can you do bitch? NOTHING! ROFL!
You mad?
lol you need valiums m8
What cracks me up is that they say "it's late night anime" but still complain about violence as if was a saturday morning cartoon show. What a bunch of moral crusaders.
No fag, they are smart enough to know kids stay up late idiotic fool!
Then its the parents fault for letting them watch that late.
In my country sex commercials start around 23:30 and full time sex commercials (IE only those commercials and nothing more) begins about 0:30 on weekdays. So if parents let children watch at those times its their damn fault.
Since Madoka airs in a nighttime slot its the parents fault for letting them watch not TBS fault.
Kids aren't still up an 1:30am.
Even if they are, their *parents* would be there and would have some say. Or do you think it's your job to parent everybody else's kids for them?
Fascist.

The shows are for us young adults to enjoy, not for government bastards to say it's unfit for TV!!
I know! Hell, I never got to see a Mami topless bathing scene. When do they goto the Hot Springs or Beach?
It's hard to masturbate with so much ground breaking plot and cutting edge visuals - what are they thinking?
Ground breaking? Is it really that good?
YES, YES IT IS! It has to mean something when people praise this series for the awesome plot and not for some gratuitous fanservice. Not to mention that Gen Urobuchi is the script writer, who presented such lovely and heart-warming story like "Saya no Uta".................
Okay, who can I fool, the story is about as nightmarish and cynical as "Narutaru" or "Bokurano". But THAT's what makes the show totally AWESOME!!!!! /end fangasm
It's the best thing since slice bread.
It's good in a sense that it deconstructs the "typical" magical girl type of show. For me this is exactly why im watching it and why people are so entertained by it, because it's different from what you normally associate with this type of show. Gone are the abundant pink colors and repeated cries of friendship conquering all and a trip to the ice cream parlor after a defeating last weeks monster of the week...
Oh no parnelli, starting with 2 episodes of pink fluffy cotton candy... episode 3 and onward it goes from bad to worse to "I'll never look at magical girls the same way again... EVER!"

Ground breaking ? Storywise not really but it is not a 0815 mahou shojo story with obvious hero and obvious enemy.
Combined with a really awesome animation, good characters, and some else very very nice things. But i am too drunk to explain it now.
It is.
It isn't. There is only heavy emo bitching and some nice vistas. For some reason people think the occasional violence makes it unique enough to care a monkeys behind.
Why don't they try mentioning all the LIVE ACTION BLOOD, GORE, AND SEX on Japanese TV at the same time of night? Asshats.
Let's just hope they never get to watch an episode of Tom and Jerry...
Yeah! Those incestuous rodents on feline in the mix shots at the beginnings of an double flick movie bijou really twicked the twits of the days. Canna we all just get along~~~iiSHIThara?
@Human Shuriken
shut up bitch
so movie counterparts like aliens, predators, saw and the likes are deemed fine to broadcast at 8:30pm when children might still be awake and watching it. but 2D fictional animes are too much for grown ups at midnight...
