Urotsukidoji: Legend of the Overfiend (1989).

Yes, I still have the 3rd disc. There are a couple blurred scenes, but it is still pretty graphic.
What do you mean ''blurred scenes'' did they (netflix) censor it?

There was a scene where this athlete, basketball player guy is fucking two or three women and it was blurred out. I also know that when my girlfriend first put in the 3rd disc, accidently out of order, it seemed far more censored than disc one. All penetration was blurred on that disc.
 
That might be at the source, rather than the distributor, though. Different companies have different interpretations of Japanese censorship laws, with some only having thin black bars that hide essentially nothing and others massive blurred out circles from hip to hip.

Yup that's the problem. All anime hentai released in Japan is optically censored, though with newer releases this isn't a problem when they are released overseas. Not so with Urotsukidoji. The censorship appears to have been applied during production of the original master, so in order to remove the censorship a new master would have to be produced, possibly requiring going back to the original materials.

Interestingly, the movie versions of 1 and 2 are not censored in this way.

I did not know they ''self-censor'' in JAPAN! who knew?:confused:
 
^ Presumably, everybody who's ever tried to watch Japanese porn, animated and otherwise, and had to settle for hot pixel-on-pixel action instead. :D

:censored: = :wah:

Yeah, it's quite annoying. :scream:

On the other hand our releases in the states (obviously the DVD kind) are uncensored (thankfully) so either we alter them somehow to remove the filter or the original master copy our companies are sent was completely uncensored. The real mystery is why bother to even make pornography in the first place if it just gets censored anyway? :wtf:

Doesn't that kind of thing defeat the entire purpose of porno. I'd laugh if it wasn't so sad and pathetic. I mean hentai has better storylines than most porn but it's still not enough to carry a movie or series along and it's not like people watch them for the plot anyway. I imagine there's a lot of reverse importing going on with the laws the way they are there.

Only the genitals though. Unlike here, breasts are not censored.

I'm a little confused on this point though considering they censor extreme violence in some shows, especially if they related to current real life cases. For instance there was a series of axe murders in Japan around the time that
School Days and Higurashi no Naka Koroni Kai
were airing. Those two series (written before the incident happened) had scenes involving violent stabbing/hacking murders so scenes in them were censored. In both cases the series went on hiatus while they did this. :(

No. No they dont, and thats just the regular stuff ;)

Actually they do, it's just to a far lesser extent ("Yes, that barely visible 1mm translucent bar is really obscuring the filth."). Of course I have no idea how I could possible know this :shifty:

What tends to happen as far as I can see is that the censorship gradually gets weaker and weaker over time until the authorities decide to prosecute someone. That then pushes the censorship back to a more severe level and restarts the process of it getting weaker again.

I am really SPEECHLESS that a thread on the first ''TENTACLE'' porno has survived 4 pages! :wtf: only on the TREKBBS!:lol:

Well, think about it. Who doesnt like tentacle rape :lol:

It should be noted though, that while it seems like japan accepts this type of entertainment, hentai anime isn't exactly considered an acceptable thing over there and its sort of a "dark hobby" type of thing. There has also been a recent backlash against sexual exploitation in anime and manga recently so there is at least some people over there who dont like it

^ Just in JAPAN or the rest of the world?
 
I just wanted to say, I was at hastings today & I came across a manga titled ''Battle Club'' and most of the Naughty bits were pixallated! I couldn't help but laugh!

Well as an Anime fan from the timeperiod when that OAV series was first released; the 3 OAV version WAS completely un-edited; but this was the one that finally had the Japanese 'clamp down' on what could be depicted once and for all.

If you watch other hentai OAVs; the Japanese lad always pixilated or 'glow globed' animated sex scenes because there was a law that stated you could not depict graphic sex between two human beings.

So, the producers of Urotsukidoji (when I saw the 3 episode OAV series, the title was translated to me as Wandering Kids) put it out depicting everything -- and were taken to court; and their defense was "Hey, we're not depicting any sex acts between two human beings; one of them is a Demon... (yeah, and it's just a coincidence they have human type genitalia and other 'human' sexual characteristics) and while the case was going on a few more anime producers got into the act and a new hentai genre was born.

Eventually, they (the Japanese) re-worded the applicable law; and thus everything became pixilated, blurry, glow-globed, etc. again.

Mostly Japan but I think Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the Phillipians (pretty much any place that has almost instant access to anime over the air) has sort of jumped in on it
