How about joining us to learn more about the worst types of anime ? Many works lose a lot of potential due to these often unnecessary rejections. With that in mind, we decided to bring you this list. By the way, consider donating to our blog, so we can stay alive and working. Now, without further ado, here's the list:
Worst Types of Censorship in Anime – Top 5
5. Cigarettes: First, let's start with this one, which may not be so serious, but it has a significant impact on the work. Characters with this characteristic certainly lose some moral character and personality when their cigarettes are taken away. A good example is Sanji, who, when his first dubbed version was released in Brazil, ended up replacing his cigarette with a mere lollipop!
4. Weapons: Another censorship that is certainly unnecessary is that of firearms. Their absence certainly detracts from the scenes, even making them seem lighter and more pathetic. Thus, as we see in the image above, we can once again cite One Piece, where we see Helmeppo holding a contraption that has no idea what purpose it serves!
Worst Types of Censorship in Anime – Top 3
03. Nudity
Starting off our top three, a true censorship classic is the hottest scenes, such as nudity. Often, intimate areas are covered by hair, objects, or even sunlight! Therefore, they don't directly interfere with the work, and I believe it's the right thing to do. However, it's still worth mentioning here.
02. Blood
Here, we see one that is certainly one of the most boring and that everyone is already accustomed to. Scenes with a lot of blood are heavily censored in most works, with rare exceptions like Attack on Titan. Thus, it certainly limits impactful scenes and weakens the story. Furthermore, waiting for the Blu-ray version is often quite annoying.
01. Culture
And finally, let's talk about the cultural issue. This is certainly the most unnecessary and annoying of all. When watching a work from another country, a cultural shock is completely normal. Furthermore, these differences are fundamental to learning and respect for all people. Therefore, censoring culture for political or religious reasons is completely ridiculous.
So, what's your opinion on the censorship? Leave a comment, and see you next time!
