What’s really bizarre is that prime-time regular broadcast anime shows 25 years ago had pantsu and even some boobage (see the first episode of Urusei Yatsura–in 1981! Not to mention Cutey Honey). The sudden shyness of Japanese TV to show even pantsu (I still can’t believe it) even on satellite stations is alarming and fits in disturbingly with the Japanese government’s recent lack of spine in the face of any peep from foreign feminist groups.
I fear the worst is yet to some.

Whoa! Never thought that there’s some added scene in Haruhi DVD… this might be a good reason to buy the dvd… Are those added scene included in Singapore release of the DVD???

And yeah, agreed! Censorship sucks!

Typically, I’m not a fan of fanservice-y shows, although, ugh, the censoring in Kojikan was ridiculous. I think that it’s the worse because you really know somethings behind there, and most of the time, was it really worth censoring? Censoring pantsu is ridiculous, when I watched the TV version with the censors, I thought that they must not be wearing anything, see the DVD version and they’re wearing buruma.

Great job man! I like the samples of good censorship from overdone censorship.

Didn’t have time to read the whole thing properly, but did go through every form of censorship you mentioned. And I am so going to get episode 19 of Geass in DVD format^^
