So do you think that people will view this show in general poorly due to the censoring and having to wait for BDs?

I don't know about others but I won't even be viewing the anime to begin with anymore, til the blu rays comes out.

AT-X is slipping, we just seen Hagure last season and Dakara with everything uncensored to the extent of Japanese law, then we get this mess, something that should get the same treatment that ends up near unwatchable.

While To Love Ru is basically just fanservice, I will watch it just for entertainment now. And rewatch it for the fanservice later.

Why AT-X... just why? =/
I'll still watch it, but son of a bitch...

Edit: Changed my mind. I'll read the manga and wait for BDs.

They leave the tits and ass uncensored of course, but everything else is blurred out. A hentai needs to go through a certain licensing process to get fully uncensored. Not entirely familiar with the process, but I think it mostly has something to do with getting shipped to the U.S. since Americans wouldn't be too keen on the concept of censored porn.

Xebec is probably the reason why the show is censored on air, but, this is just a vague guess on my part as they like to censor the nudity on certain anime. I know they didn't censor To LOVE-Ru Darkness OVA but that came straight out in Blu-Ray and DVD when you think about it.

Whilst I do think it would be better if the show was uncensored I personally can tolerate the censorship until the Blu-Ray comes out. ^.^

This is hard, we have a lot of readers here like myself, so we know how the censored scenes look like uncensored but it sure is annoying when even some delicate panty shots are censored.

Despite the ridiculous censoring I think it's still worth watching, I for one enjoyed the crap out of episode 3 and Darkness is really more about plot and certain relationships.

Well, I don't like waiting, but I will seeing as half of my screen is a mess of white blurs for the majority of episode one.

Does anyone know if subbing groups will release uncensored versions of the episodes as they're made available on BD?

I don't think people like it when there is a streak of light covering half the god damn screen every 5 minutes. It makes u feel like ur missing a lot. Despite that, I still enjoyed the series. I'll watch it later uncensored for the "plot"

I thought maybe i could just watch it for the plot with the censors on but what the hell why do they censor panties too? and whats with those censors anyway? you don't need to nearly cover the entire person to censor out just nipples. Now i don't now if i should finish this now or wait 6 months to...

I can watch it with the censors, but I much prefer watching it as the people who made it intended it to be watched, without having half the screen covered up all the time.

I was able to handle it for a bit. But enough is enough. EP 4 is really ridiculous with the censoring. At this point most of the show is blurred. Too much for me. As much as I like the anime. I will have to wait till the uncensored is out... Oh well. Other anime I suppose.

I ended up finishing it after all. Definitely re-watching when ATX comes out or whatever. Uncensored. Nice series. Still so much more need from the anime though. So hopefully there will be more seasons.

Censoring is the greatest evil in the world but im still going to watch and retreat to the manga after words.

You know there is too much censoring when half their bodied are missing and nothing but floating heads and walking feet.

I don't think it takes away from the enjoyment one would get out of the anime at all, but personally, I'm choosing to wait until the BDs come out to watch it. I can deal with censoring most times, but with this it's like every other scene, so I just think it's worth it to wait. Plus, it's been a while since I've seen the first two seasons, so this gives me a chance to rewatch them before I start Darkness.

Censorship in ecchi anime is funny when it's done to a level of tact or irony, but when it's done THIS BADLY and it makes it unwatchable...then nah man, it ruins the reasons alot of people watch ecchi anime i.e. for the ecchi. I miss shows like Girls Bravo which were mad shameless and funny, not afraid to push the boundaries but still have ok stories and funny moments. Closest to that is High School DxD which is over the top and doesn't give a fuck, haha. But i feel that if this 'light rays of modesty's bs becomes the norm then we can say goodbye to good ecchi anime, at least until the blu ray releases. *sigh* I was always afraid that my anime watching days on the internet would be hindered in some way, but i never expected this, haha. I like To Love Ru, the first season and OVA were damn good fun, but after Motto To Love Ru and a bit of To Love Ru Darkness, i honestly feel like it's unwatchable. I may like the story but I aint gonna lie about the ecchi cause I feel like that's half the point I'm watching it. And if that's censored every 5 minutes then damn, haha

I think this show lost its chance to be extremely popular from Fall 2012 due to the censorship, and it's not going to recover.
It sold well in Japan, but it just never became popular among MAL, ecchi watchers, etc.
