CLAMP's Famous Works > Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE

NHK's broadcasting and censorship policies

<< < (2/3) > >>

Faye-chan:
I was sure that CLAMP was unhappy about the Tsubasa anime, they did such a beautiful work and it has been destroyed by.. educational channel, cuts and commerciality >___<

I think they'll animate it, but awfully, with a lot of cuts etc. >>

Until now, I didn't realize there was such a thing as 'Japanese Censorship'!! I'm used to seeing anime butchered after it reaches the western broadcasting regulations.

But it does make you wonder how CLAMP could have signed Tsubasa away to BeeTrain in the first place. They must have been informed about what company would eventually be broadcasting it... Perhaps they were unaware of just how tight the resitrictions would be and just how badly their creation would be destroyed.

Of course, this whole thing is all about money! CLAMP is so hugely popular, any broadcasting company knows that if they have one of their manga made into an anime and aired on their channel, the ratings will be fantastic.
Never mind that any normal person would read Tsubasa and think, "No, that's not for children. With all the shonen ai, gore, horror and emotional intencity it's definately not an anime that a children's educational channel should be after."
But no doubt NHK-E's outlook is, "Who cares how much we have to cut, warp, dumb-down and change Tsubasa?! All long as the end result is something we can play on our channel!!"

Clearly NHK-E and BeeTrain have no respect for CLAMP, their style of storytelling or their fans. They're just after the money TRC will bring in for them. That makes me really angry to hear but I like to believe that the Tokyo arc is CLAMP's personal "Up yours!!" to them both!!  :hello2:

aaa...Gomen nasai Lulu, I talked about this topic in another one thanks for your information...I tried to register to CrosseDestinies Foro, but I can't...why?

In my opinion, you can't animate the Tokyo arc and edit the gore out.  Then its just skipping from the library to wherever they go next.  Tokyo has been nostop gore/blood/angst/plot/angst/blood.

But its TSUBASA.  Its great stuff to read, and we want it that way, but if they're editing things like names...I find it hard to believe they're going to follow the plotline well enough for fans who only watch the anime to follow.

Sailor Yue-chan:
season 1 went thru fairly last year follwing the censorship rules, but season 2 is complete garbage. the craptatuclar animatores and the character rape ALONE.

2 factors play into that too, 1 BT got a new director for TRC for season 2. and 2 CLAMP didnt work along side the team. season 2 could have and SHOULD have been played out much better. ifthey had simply played teh arcs MORE than 3 episodes, and included the country of idols arc, they would have made more anime plot then filler.
(only 10/26 episodes go to plot? thats a really low ratio quota <_<
 last year it was 24/26 plot. 2 fillers, one being pointlyess and plot-rape[bringing back dead people] the "strength and kindness ep was pretty decent. (mostly due to the kurofai antics and fai giving an EVIL look ^^;;)

as for me, right now. i REFUSE to watch te anime until they resume the actual plot :hmp:

they could if they took the time and care, which brigns to point that tokyo wont eb animated till next year.
Show content1 yasha cried blood...then FAi should be alowd to cry blood.
2 if ripping someone's arm off is too much, then give them a half nelson...(stupid really, but still)
3 nothing too scary about sakura stopping breathing really. theycould work around that making it exedingly shallow, but still. nothing too scary about that.
4 kamui slice-and-dicing syaoran.... they could heep that, but jsut remove the part whare kamui slashes his throat :shifty:
5 sword thru real syao's leg...god...i cant think of a way they could work arond that. real syao HAS to be injured and disabled from that point...but i dont really know how....
6 (forgot this one) kamui putting an arow in OURsyao's leg....well the arrow went almost thru his leg in the manga...they could have him be pinned, with a graze, but thst rather dumb really <_<
7 cutting of wrists to make a vampire...theres no way around that one. nor kamui scratching fuuma's face in ch 128

there are many other points that could reach a probelm with the censorship polocy etc, but their fairly minor and shouldnt have too much problems.
dont kill me for my opinions in there,,,thats just how i see how things could be worked around the rules.
