I had no idea manga was censored. bigrazz I'm guessing manga publishers/companies do that or something here in the U.S...?? But I don't really care anyway cuz I don't buy any mature-rated series that need censoring... I think.

Pokemon had removed episodes in non-Japanese releases.. so I daresay censoring goes quite far :/
But I am against censoring, just leave it in its original form.

So, the results on the censoring poll really aren't surprising.

I don't really care. It's not that annoying, and you have to use your fantasy at least a bit.

I'm not a fan of censoring, but some manga actually benefit from censoring. THere's a difference between intentional censoring and forced censoring.

Some people on this site are extremely sensitive to adult works it seems though.

You can't put up a manga cover that needs censoring without making the entire thing white and black boxes it seems. If not that... they cut the art all the way to the top so it just shows a character's head or something.

It's either a censored cover or no cover.

Also, we don't need covers on the site... it's not like this is the actual art work... just a snip-it or preview... so, censorship here does not matter.

Alternative Rock would have been my second choice.
