I don't really think that makes a lick of sense. If anything, our media is oversexualized. Have you ever heard and seen a 1st grader mimic Britney Spears? Fucking disturbing. And furthurmore, if Japan is so ok with genetalia, how come everything is blurred out in their pornos?

not that I'd know... that's what someone told me

It is weird how here in America we try to censor and flip out over all these things more than any other country in the world, and yet if you look at our mainstream media, we're one of(if not the) worst countries about it.

You're getting two different complaints mixed up as if the same people are making both of them. It's two groups, basically. And chances are, if one person complains about censorship in other countries, they're less than happy about the censorship in their own country.

When I went to Germany, big ol' bare boobies were everywhere I looked. So you are wrong, sir.

True, but they're more restrictive of violence. Still, I'd trade pain for boobs any day.

Would someone please make one of those split-screen images between Dbox footage and these new sets? I know it's a lot to ask as we already have some pics floating around in here, but I do very much enjoy the comparison shots.

It came in! Just watched Episode 1 in Japanese for the first time. I lol'd pretty hard at:

"Did a snake bite your weiner?"
"I guess I didn't save her after all."

I have to say though, dub credits with subtitles really seemed out of place and strange. I guess alternate angles would have been nice. :(

I live in Bulgaria in the summer and most women don't wear tops when at the beach. Seriously, that's how it is. And no one does "anything strange" with that because its natural.

Indeed.

I still need to watch more of my Dragonball set. I've been terrible lately with watching my anime DVDs.
The series doesn't start with the arrival of Raditz. Stop being lazy and watch Dragonball.

Well, for that aspect, yeah. :lol:
But it is the poorest country in Europe and not all the roads are cement yet....etc.

Anyways, Season 2 contains what episodes? I'm curious. Or do we not know yet?

I'm the same on a lot of stuff. Need to finish Shuffle, His and Her Circumstances, Rumbling Hearts, Angelic Layer, etc. Heck, bought One Piece up through season 2 vol. 1, but haven't finished season 1 vol. 1 yet.
