Toys R' US manga incident

Viz still hasn't come close to the level of censorship I heard they did after the Toys R us incident.

Besides, all they're censoring is...a few little things here and there. The big problem with them at this point is things like "Djinn".

Back then, all they were editing was frontal nudity and perverted references. o_o Now they're just editing violence done with weapons, have a few nude edits here and there, and changing names.

I'd say the latter is worse.

Well, yeah. There's a huge difference between "aimed at kids" and "aimed at US children". Even uncut Sailor Moon earned a 15+ rating in the US, for crying out loud. Americans are crazy.

Yeah I guess so, I mean they show guys without a shirt on.....girls are just bigger.

Well, that's just part of the hypocritical sex-separatist view that dominates the world. I hate it, but there's nothing I can do about it. No one wants unisex bathrooms.
