What ever happed to the good old days with censor bars in shows nonthless anime? Its all now cover ups like cans or arms,hair,fat,legs,and cut-offs. Now watch AMV Hell 3 again and see how many censor bars there are to cover ups like i listed just now.

less actual nudity so they can market it for North America

Worst idea ever... Not saying I glorify hentai, but come on, people... America gets so turned off by anime cause they think it's only tentacles and...other stuff.

also, they cut out nudity, then included it on the DVD's to make people want to buy

I dunno if I would call it "fun"...Maybe "culturally educational" or something.

I agree. A well placed plant, rock, bottle, drawer, etc. can add lulz to an otherwise "meh" scene. At the very least, it doesn't take away from the scene. Using censor bars is just too crude, and usually ends up just being a distraction.

The Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei way of hilariously censoring was probably the coolest thing ever. I mean it. That cemented my appreciation for the series.

I'm pretty sure they could have gotten away with not censoring it. It's just much better that way.

Actually, it's more frustrating. Your eyes wander for some candy, but only making contact with some random guy. Not cool! >:(

When you are right, you are right. Sometimes, it's all about the tentacles!

Actually Cartoon Network put English over all the Japanese writing, even full page technical documents. It's even more thorough than my DVD box set in that regard.
