Digimon's way more violent than Korra. People actually get hurt, impalement, on-screen death x_x Xros Wars is probably going to be more heavily edited than the earlier series.

However, given that her Digimon Wiki page mentions "sensuality" quite a few time in the lede, I could easily be underestimating the work involved. |
Most of her attacks are sex/fanservice-based x_x

Even her partner isn't much less sexualized.

Uh, no. People in Korra actually got hurt too, and it got pretty morbid at times, plus Amon's death in the season 1 finale.

Yes the Digimon dub does change quite a bit. I don't regularly watch dubs, but having seen both in this case, I preferred the dub. Also name changes are really completely inconsequential. So they can go right ahead and do that for all I care. |
Tamers, Frontier and Data Squad didn't change all that much from their opposites, aside from changing (or adding) some jokes and the name changes. Plot was pretty much the same. The only major edits I recall was complete cut of Sexy Dynamite in Frontier and the editing of the blood out of Savers.
That aside, Tamers got away with a lot as it was near when they transferred the license from Saban to Disney.

I've seen the japanese version of Xros Wars. Most of the violence happens towards the Digimon and not the human characters which would be where any major censorship would be an issue. Since they fade into pixels and don't bleed everywhere the soccer moms don't care as much.

Excuse me, what are you citing? You're not providing any context for this.

Savers also has a lot of fanservice edits.

But they're no longer on Nicktoons, making DBZ Kai Vortexx-exclusive (at least on TV and Kabillion).

Did he? You know, it was really unclear.  That's the problem, you can't be direct or actually show anything on screen. Digimon doesn't have that problem so it's going to be more of an issue with censors. Korra is extremely tame by comparison from what I've seen so it's not a good comparison. Digimon is a lot more direct and unapologetic about it's content.

Digimon is one of the least objectionable anime I've ever seen.
Besides that, directly showing intense conflict does not make a show superior. While I have issues with the writing of that ending, the aforementioned scene in Korra is very powerful, because of how it's implied. Making that possible is far more skillful then just showing it, as it leaves the scene up to the audience's imagination.

Will there be different edits for The CW and Nick like there was with DBZ Kai?

Eh I wouldn't say Digimon is really that "unapologetic" in terms of violence when as mentioned earlier said violence is pretty much only directed towards the Digimon and since they "die" by fading into pixels I doubt it's gonna have soccer moms up in arms or anything if it's mostly left untouched. Some of said violence does have it's serious reprecussions in the show from time to time, but if Tamers was left mostly in tact(and that had waaaaaaayyyyy more objectionable content than this incarnation) this probably won't be that censored violence wise. Well again provided they create a slightly less edited version for the Nick airing.
