Again, the problem is...?fps_anth wrote:They censored a cigarette?!? I thought smoking was much more accepted in Japan...or something :?
Being of the straight-edge belief, I wholeheartedly applaud this censoring.

Because there's nothing more hardcore and mature than........A pink monster that turns people into chocolate?B wrote:Too minor for me to care about, too minor for Toei to bother censoring it.
Dragon Ball is hardcore and mature, and as a hardcore and mature viewer, I need a cigarette.

...Wow, TOEi. Are you seriously just making fun of us?
[quote="Brakus"]For all the flack that FUNimation gets on this forum for their quote about DBZ, there's some modicum of truth to it: a 9-year-old is born every day. Or in some cases, "reborn". DBZ may be a kids' show, but it's been so close to so many hearts all over Japan, America, and quite possibly, even the world.[/quote]
They didn't censor that shot, they just cut out the shots in which it appeared. It goes flying out of his mouth when he opens it wide; Kai begins with that mouth open shot.
The only shot in which it might be censored is this one:
...from DBZ, but the ciggy is barely visible there anyway. In other words, this shot is cut from Kai:

Again, people, quit fucking whining about it. It's just a pathetic cigarette that shouldn't have even been there in the first place.
Thank you, Toei. You've done something right for a change.

So, I'm supposed to just agree with the masses on everything? Is that what you're saying? "Yay! Smoking is good! Looking at a kid's penis is awesome! Gogeta is the greatest character ever and you're a faggot if you hate him!"Mystery Person X wrote:Kindly stop telling off people who don't share your opinion, on a matter where you're obviously in the minority amongst anime fans and especially DBZ fans for very obvious reasons.

Thanks.
Um. No. Thanks, but no thanks.

And that, my good man, is bullshit.

You stated your opinion.Saiyavenger2941 wrote:

Someone else stated their opinion.
You said "Fuck off, your whining isn't valid". Nobody told you that your opinion was stupid or invalid. Mr. X here is telling you not to tell others to fuck off. If others respect your opinion, it's just common courtesy to respect back.

Nobody told you to fuck off. You expressed your opinion, other people expressed theirs with an equal level of civility. It doesn't matter who is the minority or the majority, both still shouldn't tell the other to "stop fucking whining".Saiyavenger2941 wrote:Yeah, but that's a huge "if" right there.Super Ghost Kamikaze wrote:If others respect your opinion, it's just common courtesy to respect back.

But like I said, it shouldn't take much thinking to deduce why people find it hard to respect your opinion. Coming on this forum with a pro-censorship POV is about the same as preferring the FUNi dub to the original. The forum's userbase is built around a position diametrically opposed to that, and if you go against the grain you've got to expect you'll get a reaction to that. (And even bearing that in mind, people were pretty civil until you told them to "quit fucking whining".)Saiyavenger2941 wrote:Yeah, but that's a huge "if" right there.
And, more to the point, your opinion isn't especially logical. I hate smoking and I have no particular desire to look at a child's penis, but I'd still prefer these things to remain in any media where the creators felt it was appropriate. Being anti-smoking and anti-censorship are hardly incompatible.

Saiyavenger, I think you're missing the point. It's not always what you say, but how you say it.
You're saying that you want to be allowed to voice your opinion. Well, no one told you not to. Unless your opinion is this.

I'm sure no one minds that you think the cigarette is unnecessary and can be removed. That's fine, that's a valid opinion. But by telling people to 'quit fucking whining about it,' you're not only telling them that their opinion is invalid and should by kept to themselves, but you're swearing at them while you do it. How can you not see how this might offend someone? Maybe you don't mean to, but that's how people are taking it.Saiyavenger2941 wrote:Again, people, quit fucking whining about it.
