Original post: https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=2210651 (intending to merge that to this here)

ICYMI and/or are living under a rock about the situation with Takamine-san's release:
- Japan has no delays on releases, not on AT-X nor on TV stations
- There IS a "Special streaming" less-censored version released on dAnimeStore AIRING 6 DAYS after the OG schedule, which BOTH Crunchyroll and Bilibili WILL CERTAINLY air episodes as per "coincidentally" scheduled.



So ultimately, make that of what you will if CR is given the less censored version by delaying a full week instead.
Alternatively, there's Bilibili if you still want the uncensored version, but this is probably NOT the right move to censor much more.
EDIT: Looks like Bilibili is also not spared from this delay as well.

Censored episode counts (if you know where to find them): Ep 3, Ep 5

NEW UPDATE for Ep 10:
CR delays Ep 10 to Jun 10 from the OG release on Jun 4.

if it were true, then crunchyroll should have said a heads up at this point, no one else is reporting this and crunchyroll has made mistakes before, that's why I don't believe it's true, even if the website says so, because they have made mistakes before.

Well, the episode should've dropped by now so it seems it's really true.

I had no idea there was a total THREE versions of this show, I thought there was only TWO.

Can somebody do a side by side comparison of the fully uncensored version of the less censored version of the previous two episodes?

I also double checked the previous two episodes on CR and they remain unchanged. Maybe the version they have the entire time is indeed the slightly less censored version unless somebody can show comparisons. Regardless, I know this is definitely out of CR's control but unfortunate situation if the licensor gives them the slightly less censored version starting next week.

I have a Google Doc set up with all the shows I watch, what day and time they stream, and when I looked at CR's release calendar and it wasn't there, I started wondering if they pulled another "Interspecies Reviewers"

@HOOfan_1 I actually just watched the third episode and I now I see why there are three versions. I think CR this entire time got the slightly less censored version which will still show titties and ass but have certain scenes completely cut out or edited because the third episode had about a 5-7 second scene that is literally hentai (not 100% straight up) and they're obviously keeping this version exclusive for AT-X and blu-rays.

@paulchaested There were actually two scenes in this episode that caused a ruckus:

The first scene, as you mentioned, the male-fluids scene on Takamine.

And the other scene, In the imagination of the male MC, when Takamine was at the park alone, and he just imagined her getting touched by random men

With those two scenes, the anime entered "h e n t a i" territory, or OVA-disc-only territory

Can somebody explain to me like im a 10 y/o? I dont care if I have to wait until next week for ep 3... somebody please just tell me if we are gonna get the *fully* uncensored version along with the normal schedule every week or if we're gonna have to wait for Bluray lmaoo

(and if we're gonna have to wait for Bluray, is there an ETA on that?)

If this has anything to do with what scenes are being implied, maybe the first scene mentioned but I doubt the second scene. Freezing Vibration has a scene way more disturbing that that park scene in Takamine-san. Pretty sure it's that episode if anyone wants to compare but it's not for the faint of heart, S2E06 (E18 on CR). I personally thing that Freezing episode is worse than the 2 in Takamine-san put together.

Now that I remember, I should also mention Tsugumomo S1E08 (also on CR) which has a scene almost exactily like the "male fluids" one. While it doesn't animate the "shot" is does however go off screen with when Kazuya reaches his limits and then shows the aftermath when he's done and it's all over the girls. CR does have the censored version of this anime but there is no difference in that "finishing" scene that I can remember between censored and uncensored version other than some oppai. It's tawards the end of the episode is anyone wants to compare.

At the end of the day, CR is a streaming service that aquired the rights to an uncensored simulcast and they should stick to it. Ratings are there for a reason and if anyone did complain, their complaints should not be taken into consideration because the warnings are there under the rating. I mean, for anyone not familiar with the manga, it should say it all in the video description.

It's definitely regarding the first scene and the shot is fully animated, no off screen. The second scene is really tame and not a big deal and probably won't be cut out in the less censored version. I have no issues with h or borderline h stuff in anime but the first scene did make me say, "Hmm... there's no way the Japanese licensor is going to air this on TV."

Like I mentioned earlier, I think CR got the less censored version from the very start which will still show uncensored stuff if episodes 1 & 2 are anything to go by, it's just very specific scenes will be cut out.

I didn't want to post anything from a jolly roger site but go to about 20:10 and listen closely. if this can be on CR, Takamine-san can also be.

also, I should point out that I'm not arguing or anything like that, I'm just voicing my irritation with CR if this happens to be the case.

Tsugumomo S1E08, I couldn't find the sub on YT so this is the dub. The sub says something along the lines as "he's still rock hard" check it out on CR if you have it.

Suspected from the start that CR only got the less censored version and not the completely uncensored, they've never done that for currently airing seasonal shows in the history of their service.
CR just doesn't want to pay for it as the less censored version is presumably cheaper. At best they upgrade it to uncensored 6 months later once the BDs are out.

paulchaested said:

No, AT-X for one is only available in Japan, they don't care about overseas markets. See: HIDIVE licensed the AT-X version for multiple shows the last few seasons just fine, and for a longer time ADN (France/Germany) and Baha (Taiwan, famous for accidentally receiving a version of Ishuzoku Reviewers with uncensored genitals in the OP) were able to do it too.
It's only Crunchyroll that never does.. sure is a coincidence.

(Rant) Just hope it’s just a delay and both episodes come uncensored next week.

If they bork this just because of Twitter trolls that don’t even watch anime, I might cancel my CR subscription and binge watch some of the seasonals once they end, because a barrier would’ve been crossed.

I’ve payed to watch it uncensored because they said it was, and if they can’t keep their promises, then I’ll give them as little money as possible.

I'm confused, so episode 3 has been delayed because there's like a censored version of this airing rn that's going to censor some scene in episode 3, and it's going to air along side the version that's already out next week? Is that what's happening?

@Alkimia We don't know what's happening but there are three theories.

1. Crunchyroll has the fully uncensored version but there is a contractual issue that they were just made aware of which prevents them from streaming until 6 days after the AT-X broadcast, to line up with other streaming services.

2. Crunchyroll has been airing the fully uncensored version but is switching to a partially censored version for ep 3 and onward. The streaming date will be the same as the partially censored version on the d-anime store website in Japan.

3. Crunchyroll has been airing the partially censored version this whole time, but nothing was extreme enough in the first 2 episodes to warrant extra censorship so it appears the same as the fully uncensored version up until this point.

Unless Crunchyroll says something (they won't) we won't know until they drop the 3rd episode what the situation is.

@GrumbleDango Ugh... please let it be the first case :/

Everyone was so surprised to see the first two episodes like pretty much uncensored, plus that scene in episode three that I've seen people talk about sounds fun. I really hope CR is just waiting for the other streaming services to catch up and they just give us the uncensored version. I know they don't really have control over which version they get, but that would still suck. I guess we'll see on the 23rd.

I emailed CR a few days ago and from what I understood from their response, they had issues with the subtitles. I really hope this is the case. Come Tuesday and we get a censored version, we as a community should mass email them and persuade them to reconsider their choice.

I really hope it was just a subtitle issue, I don't want to have to wait for the DVD.

To be fair, Tsugumomo was definitely not an outlier to the "borderline Hentai", though standards were a lot different back then.

But then again, can you expect Crunchyroll to be THIS transparent about altercations? I don't think so.

Take a look at Tsugumomo S1E08 toward the end. It's pretty similar and CR does have the censored version of that.

Crunchy, after this episode 03, not only did they censored the male-fluids scene, but also some none-Oppai-scenes (bootea, panties-vajayjay).

Crunchy has basically implied that from episodes 03-to-12, the anime will be censored, with the exception of Oppai scenes

Well, I guess ill watch the rest of the anime on an un-subbed website, which will give the uncesored version.

Hidive can't even stream yandere dark elf uncensored.

And wdym they "chickened out"?? They most likely had this version since the beginning, so it's not like they changed which versions they had mid way through the simulcast.
