Also worth noting, since no one's brought it up yet: there'll be three versions airing - TV-censored, uncensored, and super-uncensored - and for some reason, the TV version is only 15 minutes while the uncensored cut is a full 30.

Just how ecchi will this show be, if that's the case?

There's a mini anime called Naoe-kun wants to lose weight which airs as part of the AT-X broadcast from what I can see. The show itself doesn't have the standard "Viewer age restriction" on AT-X either (pote pote), which you'd find with shows having nudity in them.

They have "TV Broadcast", "Potato" and "Very Plump" version. The latter only streaming on AnimeFesta and while Hidive says they have the "uncensored" version I would assume it's the AnimeFesta once.

One joke I've seen on Twitter about this series is that it was made to appeal to Jamaicans, because allegedly Jamaican men love their women plus-sized.


Way to bring up something that is both sexist and racist.


Jamaican isnt exclusively a race.

Also they ain't wrong.

As someone from the Caribbean, I can confirm the Jamaican allegations, it's not sexist or racist, it's literally just how it is. It's not just Jamaicans either, it's a bunch of Caribbean people.
The Jamaican memes are founded lol

Also Jamaican isn't a race, it's a nationality.

Does anyone even watch the censored versions of these kinds of shows?
