| The official site for the anime series Shigofumi, announced on Friday that the eight episode will be altered (titled "Hajimari" or "Beginning" in English). The reasoning behind this seems to be due to recent events in Japan and in society at large, the same reason for the editing of the third episode back in January. On May 13th, the first volume of the series will be released in the U.S. by Bandai - only a couple of months after the Japanese release on March 25th. For more information: ANN. |
| NO. *flames* |
| LAME. *2nd flamer* |

| I haven't started watching yet but *FLAME* This gutless industry that alters anime episodes has left me in despair T_T |
| DVDs for Anime are the only uncensored, real versions of anime. |
| Gah, again. So lame. |

| BVUSA, the shun is temporarily lifted. *pulls out wallet* |
| My first novel, Kardia has been published! Click here to read! |
| I personally still want to see the uncut version of episode 3. |
 ilu Mathes. thanks for awesome Beato sig. <3 ilu mah_marina. thanks for awesome Beato icon. <3 |
| Wow, again? Well, Shigofumi seems to be doing great even when censored. Time to buy the DVDs... any chance for the light novels to be translated? |
| oh Japan and their recent events. STOP. *FLAMES MOAR* |
     |
| That sucks! I don't like watching half a screen for like a quarter of the episode :P. |
| Gah, damn crazy Japs. Altering Shigofumi should be a sin. *fans the flames even more* |
 |
| great.....now I will need to watch the episodes again for uncensoredness. I just hope they don't edit it too much to where it's just stuped. *7th Flame* |
  |
| Again? sad |
 |
| jeez i cant believe it at all i love violence and cant bear it to be censored as well as anythiong in anime as well 8th FLAME |
 I signed my screen and now its all smeary "When you meet your God tell him to leave me alone." check out my bloghttp://corpse69.wordpress.com/ fix MAL already |
| Bah. I bet this'll happen a fourth time before the series is over =/ At least it still seems to be doing okay even with the censors. |
     |
| They can't handle the truth in Shigofumi. |
 |
| This is getting ridiculous. >.> Nerull said: how many school girls must go skitzo over there for all these eps to be censored lulz. |
| I just want to know why they announced it. It's not as if anyone outside of the makers would notice if they didn't tell anybody. :p |
| Another one? Wow. They should just cancel it. >_> |
     |
| fail |
逃げちゃ駄目だ。 |
| Is this an issue related to someone getting killed? I saw School Days and read about that crazy axe chick, but I haven't watched Shigofumi yet. Does it have something to do with a situation like that? I can understand respect for the dead but, to this extent, I didn't know japan was getting more PC. |
 |
| WHAAAT, again!? I can't take anymore of this censorship. Enough is enough! >.< |

 |
the_seventh_l said: Higurashi Kai was cut? How? At the same time School Days was cut, it was uncertain whether or not they would air the 12th episode of Kai. The episode was delayed. Also, if you didn't notice, I believe they removed Rena's axe from the OP. Something like that. I learned something interesting just now http://zepy.momotato.com/2007/09/20/how-to-axe-an-anime/ Damn, they stink for doing this. |

| y dey ceep mesin wit mah sho mayn? daz s0 stoopid. |
| Not again..-.- |
     |
| Another altered episode? =/ Imo, Shigofumi isn't that controversial, why do they keep doing this (first was the altered episode 3, then some stations didn't air episode 6, and now it's episode 8) =S |
| The censorship policy of Shigofumi is excessively strict. I think some of the production committee member are pretty much coward. Recently there were two or three cases where children killed their parents. The description of Fumika shooting her father Kirameki will be censored. |
| WTH . There were some really gory series aired with no constraints and they're concerned with 'society issues'. Strange country indeed. |
"There is a road in the hearts of all of us, hidden and seldom traveled, which leads to an unknown, secret place." |
| I'm getting pissed of here give me the 8th episode I was curious |
 |
| I'm new to all this, but why would the DVD have everything (i.e., no censorship)? At what point is the censorship taking place? Wouldn't the DVD come out after the censorship had been done? Sorry to be stupid about all this. |

animedreamer said: I'm new to all this, but why would the DVD have everything (i.e., no censorship)? At what point is the censorship taking place? Wouldn't the DVD come out after the censorship had been done? Sorry to be stupid about all this. Because the original episode isn't censored. |
| Real Life sucks doesn't it? If my favorite series is Kodomo No Jikan, then I have to wait a year or two to watch the series in a form that's actually watchable. If my favorite series is a normal series, I have to watch half of the show before I can watch the whole show 2 years later for several hundred dollars. Real Life is so pitiful and Japan needs to realize that artistic freedom should not be limited based on society. All the governments in this world are screwed up in this sense. |
 |
| "due to recent events in Japan and in society at large..." even the reason got censored. Apparently only filler episodes containing sweet little kitties can survive the screening... and animedreamer, it's okay for the DVD to contain the originals because people can choose for themselves whether they buy it or not. It's the same with American singles and albums. No bad language in the singles but you can "fuck" as much as you want on the album as long as it has the parental advisory sticker/whatever you call it is on it. |
Say Satisfied Fans |
| ug. I am seriously flaming here. GRRR!!! |
| I just watched it, I for one am kind of happy they censored it. It was done so well I didn't really notice it (plus I wasn't thinking about it) when I was watching, but if it's where I think it was....thank goodness. Poor child. |
| *Sends moar flames* |
 |
| ZETSUBOUSHTA!!!!! -_- crapeth i say! |
