@satyamkumar4005 okay, think of it this way - this is an ecchi show, where the studio is clearly failing to deliver on. It is also a battle shonen series, with fantastic spicy scenes in the source material, with phenomenal art.

In episode 4 of the uncensored release, you really can't defend the dumb censoring decisions that were made. The premise of the series is ecchi, and the adaptation already skipped out on one of the best reward scenes from early chapters involving Kyouka, and now we're seeing stupid creative decisions being made in the "half" uncensored release lol.

Honestly, terrible adaptation which really had potential. I blame the producers and the studio lol.

Yeah well sure , what are those dumb decision (s)?
As much as i remember there's only one censored echhi scene which isn't even a big deal when whe compare it with other things they showed. You don't like the adaptation that's fine , but if you want others to acknowledge why you don't like it or if you want to prove that what you don't like is logical, you have to give reasons, you can't just say "they did dumb censoring" , you have to give what are those censoring and how's it dumb . Not to mention we are talking about episode 4 so please don't talk about the other episodes . So again ,i remember one scene of not showing himari's big sister's "nipples" and for me that's not even a big deal cause' they have literally showed himari playing with her breasts for the mc .

@satyamkumar4005 lol, intentional whitening on the nipples despite clearly showing them in previous episodes, and then terrible lighting effects for lesser visibility of the panty shot during the early reward scene and so on. Yachiho's complete censoring despite the "uncensored" parts of Himari's white nipples during the reward scene within the same episode just do not add up. The adaptation is absolutely butchering it despite how great the source material is. I don't have to spell that out again. How is this a well thought out creative take? I'm more surprised on why you had to ask me of this for convincing you. And why not mention previous episodes lol, are they not part of the same show we're watching? 🗿
It's great if you enjoyed the episode - but that doesn't mean you shouldn't acknowledge the obvious glaring issues the adaptation has. This is supposed to be an ecchi series anyway - the studio is fumbling hard and it shows.

Edit: I blame the production committee more than the studio, wanted to make note of that. I'm just disappointed as a source reader with this bland battle shonen anime which is fumbling hard with the fan service, for which the manga series is popular for, aside from its amazing art and action.

The REAL issue with this anime adaption is that the anime staff does NOT want to give importance to ecchi scenes.Its like anime staff was forced to animate the ecchi scenes instead of doing those scenes passionately. It is also evident from such low rating of 6.99,whereas the underated anime Gushing over Magical Girls did much better ecchi with more passion. We dont want hentai but we want ecchi done passionately not forced. High School DxD is one of the biggest example of less ecchi done with huge passion. It is less ecchi than Shinmai no testament but its still far superior for ecchi fans. Chained Soldier anime was supposed to be the Next Gen High School DxD but till now it has been a disappointment :(

Your standard reminder that "censorship" is banning or the imposition of changes by a powerful outside authority and any director who makes an anime by just copying what the manga does shot by shot is incompetent.

Doesn't bother me that much, I take what I can get, it's better than having no adaptation at all.
People are lamenting way too much about anime not adapting 1:1 from the source, I once did that too but not anymore.

Anyway, the anime can partially be saved, technically, at least from censorship.

If even the blu ray version is crapped all over like the ""uncensored"" version we have now, someone will have to take the matter in their own hands.

Like people posed a threat to bad localizers by using AI to redub anime episodes to fix their localization, some madlad with AI prompt experience and a semi powerful GPU can run these episode mkv files through some engine and ask them to uncrap the censored bits.
(example for ep 4 you would color the titties in the rewards scene, unblur the onsen scene from the steam and add some more coloring to the nips, and as for the shower scene, it can be completely redrawn by using the manga page as a reference...animators make use of still images from mangas in their anime all the time, and so can AI lol...i mean live2d exists since forever lol)
I think they are not hard to fix with the means AI has now.
Think about it...
(if you are one person that matches the description above consider doing it if the blu ray really sucks...pls lol)

The selling point of the manga was the ecchi scenes. If they failed to adapt it properly then I can see the frustration of the fans. However I will still wait for the BD release and then watch it. Maybe, just maybe there is a slight chance that we will get the uncensored version.
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.

Another new episode, more censorship for whatever reason.

The anime team is really lazy as hell as and inconsistent with the censorship for whatever reason the girl got barbie tits.

Censoring ecchi is removing over half the reason of watching it in the first place. Utter foolishness. I guess I'll just read the manga when I have time

censorship is directly proportional to popularity.

more the anime is more censorship will be otherwise westerners will get upset(their ass tabooos goes brrrr)
so yeah its very saddening but we are going this way in future

with Japanese studios realising the money they gonna generate from west , they gonna do anything to align western views into anime.

FK those were good times when Japanese used to "don't give a fk" attitude toward anyone outside japan

@ClutchNorris

I'm gonna watch it and keep criticising it, to give it rightfully a low score if the quality is gonna remain supbar.

Thankfully we got another show this season which has absolutely shown how to do an ecchi right.

And that certain show sits currently on number on niconico rankings and also has number 1 preorder numbers.

People choose with their wallet what to buy and mato seihei anime is not on that list for most folks lmao. 😂😂😂

@Mathi786 Gushing over magical girls. Unlike MatoSlave, it elevated the source materials beautifully.
And niconico rating is about how many viewers watching the show in japan during its broadcast.
