    I'm NOT going to watch this XD whether it's the American version or the Chinese version or whatever version if it's censored in my opinion it's not particularly worth the watch. Not trying to sound pervish but the characters should be the way that they should be. I mean you don't see a change in how when women especially in America go to the beach they wear the most skimpy attire possible. And children come face to face with that almost on a daily basis during the summer months. So to censor something in a cartoon at least to that degree in my opinion is ridiculous. Not that I'm completely against censoring because some anime out there are .... a little too spicy for lil tikes to watch.

      Agreed. The fanservice and degeneracy is one of the main reasons I'm just kinda giving up on modern anime and sticking with older stuff. It's like what Hayao Miyazaki said about the industry "being filled with people who can't stand being around other human beings", it's not made for normal people anymore, it's made for the otaku basement dwellers.
      And it's not that I have a problem with adult jokes in animation, hell my favorite channel is Adult Swim. It's just how obnoxious and disgusting it gets in anime nowadays. Also, I agree with you on Fire Force, that "joke" made me so annoyed after a while, especially after the creator spent a whole chapter basically strawmanning people who complained about it.

    @AshXXMayftw Před 2 lety +2

    When fans ask why it is I didn't mind 4Kids as much as some of the more recent censored examples, it comes down to what each of them offer. With 4Kids it is crystal clear they had no intention of following the source material, but they did have their own fun with it. I go back and watch some of their work on Pokemon and Yugioh, and it's clear they're painfully aware of how stupid their edits were, some even going so far as to break the 4th wall wide open. So, with 4Kids I see them as most an official abridged series that worked with what they had at the time. When it comes to modern changes and censorship in modern shown from companies like Funimation, that is absolute negative. Funimation prides themselves on being true to the source material, and they are...to an extent. They still change some stuff not only in their dubs, but in their subs as well. And since they boast about being faithful, it comes across as being far more backhanded than 4Kids. As for these Chinese versions, whatever. So long as Funimation doesn't start using those for their releases, fine, they can have them.

    I'm usually against censorship in general, but honestly the censorship of Demon Slayer in China isn't a big deal to me. The fact that they put in the time to make it actually look good is kinda awesome compared to how lazily implemented some visual censorship can be. As for the 'slave' stuff, changing the name of the series to not use that word is not censorship imo. It's localization. That word has a very dark history in America and the purpose of localization is to make works more accessible to people of a specific region. If that means changing the name slightly to not prominently use a word with so much baggage, I say go for it.
