do not highlight the stuff posted if any, if you hate spoilers.

I haven't seen much of it yet (first disc only), but I didn't really see much that would be overly offensive for Adult Swim.... nothing that really jumps to mind, that is.

They barely cut FLCL, after all...

So with it not being so bad, that means it could be shown to it's full coolness. Surprised

Bandai will probably give them a shortened ED with English credits like they did with .hack//SIGN. The show doesn't have a clip preview. Its just Robin reciting this coven thing and displaying the next episode title.

I hope they keep the OP.

Sounds like something they'd actually do too.

Just remember:

Talking about what possibily could be edited sometimes leads to stuff being edited on Cartoon Network. The people at Williams Street aren't suit-wearing snobs; they're actual fans of anime and animation and like to browse messageboards just like regular people do.

And that means they can often see discussions of people talking about what should/could be edited from CN shows. For example, people talked about when CN didn't edit the shot of Kikyo's crotch in "Inuyasha"; on the next run, it was edited. Another example is that people wondered how CN was going to edit the "Birthday Pursuit" episode of "Lupin III" because it featured nudity. When it aired, it was edited more severely than other episodes in the series. It's also happened with several of their original cartoons, though I can't recall any specific examples.

If you ask me, we shouldn't worry about what could or what should be edited from "Witch Hunter Robin" or any other show out there. We should just let the folks at WS do their job, because they ultimately respect the anime shows their air.

Yeah, no discussion about potential spoilers, or "Hey, look! They didn't edit this!"

I'm hesitant enough about Kyle Pope's "NOT AN EDIT" inclusions on his Edit Lists. We don't need to discuss those further, anyway.

Accept what's on TV; complain about what was edited, but don't make such a big deal over what hasn't been edited.
