Sigh, nice names for this badly animated, poorly scripted adaptation. The source material was decent, it really is being done an injustice.

I expect few people are still watching this, since no one has commented that now when attempting to watch the lastest episode (or anything other than the first episode), Nico Nico displays a message that you must be a premium member.

I dunno, I think a lot of people are still watching it one way or another. Aside from myself, I doubt most fans are regular ANN forum goers Razz
Anyways, premium membership on Nico is 25 cents and I'm still able to watch it there, though that will change end of this year. And you can currently also watch it on Funi. Though I suspect some or many may opt to wait for bluray releases for the uncensored version as well as additional footage.

Unfortunately, Funimation is lower resolution.

The biggest problem with paying the 25 cents at Nico Nico is that it just doesn't seem right to have to do a bank transfer for 10 cents (my PayPal account currently has 15 cents in it).

I am more concerned about the premium requirement spreading to more shows, such as Shana. It doesn't help that Nico Nico does a rather poor job of informing users.

I'm still watching this show. 'Coz of all the big titties and crotch shots. Er, I mean, because of the exquisite characterization and powerful thematic elements.

I stopped after the first episode due to the censorship. I do want to watch it but I will wait until the uncut episodes appear before I watch more of it.

Same here. The thing is, the censoring is so baffling most of the time. There are plenty of times where the panty shots are shown with no obstruction at all, and then others where the damn sun has to interfere (I would say the moon is innocent, but we've seen plenty examples of mysterious moonbeams before in other series). I suppose I could just enjoy it for the story.......yeah, I'll wait for uncensored panties.
