Did you just decide you didn't want to read the posts? Because, at least in my posts, the point was that it's silly to be upset when it was almost certain the initial broadcast would be censored and there's going to be an uncensored version within two weeks of broadcast, much better than the "wait a few months" deal most other anime have. Complaining seems kind of silly. What is there to complain about? That your preview (and it was beyond certain it was just going to be a preview, what with industry standards and the fact that even the previews were censored) isn't the full show? That you have to wait less time than usual before getting your jollies?

Also, the "It's essential to the story" argument is a whopping load. It becomes less and less prominent as the story goes on, and every instance can easily be covered. The nipples are fanservice, they don't even need to be in the show.

Not saying it's wrong to watch it for titillation, but it's beyond silly to complain when the broadcast is censored like every other anime broadcast and you get your uncut version so soon.

I don?t get your point. An incomplete, (very badly) censored version is airing - and I need to wait another 2 weeks to see the normal (very likely, in lower quality) version. I don?t know about you, but for me thats just teasing and tedious.

I don?t want to see this anime. just for its entertaining and humoristic story. I want it complete, including the fanservice and tits in addition to the whacky plot.

Maybe thats just me but - if someone promises me a beer but hands me pi** I am not thankful that at least I got something to drink.

Okay. I never post, but it's quite obvious they censor because they want people to buy the BD. Okay?

[zdarkness]

Alright guys, seriously. Lets just wait the two weeks (or closer to one now I think) before we erupt into some flame war.

Except you were promised not beer, piss, or nipples. You were promised an anime series would be aired on July 7th that would be based on a series concerning breasts. It would be aired on cable, and less explicit works on the same stations were previously censored. You were also promised an uncensored version two weeks after the fact, when, in most cases, it's usually months before an uncensored version comes out. If you were at a bar, the bartender said "Sorry, we're running low on beer, we can get you a root beer for the moment. We should have some more beer in two hours.", and you told him he may as well have given him piss, I doubt he would take kindly to it. Of course, this whole "beer" analogy is stupid.

I seriously don't understand this adamant belief that people have been utterly WRONGED for getting silly censorship as a trade-off for quicker access to the uncensored versions of a show. For free. I'm not attacking anyone here, but it seems like people are taking it that way. I'm just asking that people stop griping about something so trivial and silly.

I would really, really appreciate this.

[cursereaper]

I agree. So we have to wait a little bit. So what? We should be grateful that they actually made such a great manga into a show to begin with.

Oh I am; just a little sad about the whole censoring garbage which seems to be the norm today.

Anyway, episode 1 looks amazing so far, I believe the uncut version will be epic.

AND we'll have episode 2 to look at tomorrow

Currently downloading the second episode from: http://www.gogoanime.com/manyuu-hikenchou-episode-2

Will know in 10 minutes whether it has BE... =)

EDIT: Okay, well, when it is uncensored it will be hilarious to watch I'm sure (giant nunchuck-like boobs?) and will hopefully show a little bit of BE, can't really tell by the censoring; but there's some definite boob stealing.

On that gogoanime site I found a better quality (newer upload?) video of the first episode too (subbed) that some people might feel worth getting.

Yeah, just watched the episode myself, it goes through the chapter where they fight the assasin who drugs them at the onsen. The bad news is that the censoring is much worse during the BE/BR sequence this time since, unlike in the first episode, they're completely naked when it happens in this one so they had to cover everything up.

The good news is that this ep the BR goes really fast and the BE gets what seems like a nice, slow, detailed shot, quite the reverse of the first episode. So when we get uncensored versions in a few weeks it should be aces.
There was litrerally nothing but lazor pew pew to .gif up this week, so I'm not even going to bother, you literally can't see anything.

Holy crap, this one is even more censored to hell O_o. You literally can't see anything. It's a full body censor. lmao

[Yugo]
