20 years later and I'm still salty about Cartoon Network dropping the hot springs.
>same animation block has Tenshi Muyo with an onsen built in and bathing characters every episode
That's okay, we'll just painstakingly edit them wearing bathing suits
>...and Cowboy Bebop has a shemale in the shower
It's a good story, and we can just shade out the boobs like with a lot of violent shots
>Melfina's naked in her brain-tube most episodes
That's fine, we can edit her a couple times in underwear and reuse those shots throughout
>Oh, and later OLS has an onsen episode with maybe 2 minutes of actual nudity, but it's a long-awaited conclusion to the assassin trailing them, tells us more about caster guns, magic, and it's right before the finale–
CUT IT. IT NEVER EXISTED. ANYONE WHO ASKS ABOUT Ep. 23 GOES TO SUMY OBLAST.
