I think the nudity was a token thing in anime in the 90's. It's like with American TV ads that used to have FULL FRONTAL NUDITY with no qualms in the 70's.
It was just something you didn't make anything out of. Unfortunately, American and even Japanese TV nowadays is making a huge fuss over it. Very sad state of affairs IMO. Though it is a great reason for them to uncensor them for the DVD versions. |

As someone who was alive and watching TV in the 70's, I don't recall ever seeing any full frontal nudity in TV ads in the US back then. In fact, they still talked about waiting to have sex in the sitcoms then, unlike now. Now Hollywood movies on the other hand seemed to have wanted to throw topless women into almost every movie in the 70's for reasons not related to plot. It was almost like a check list, Topless Women... Check.

I'm just wondering if I remember the last episode correctly and that it ends with Aisha and Suzuka rejoining everyone on the ship when they said they were departing from everyone on the planet.
EDIT: After some extensive searching I found my answer. Few comments: When I first saw this anime, I thought the caster gun was one of the coolest weapons I've ever seen. I wish we could see the crew fight against the Tendo King and rest of the 108 stars. Last edited by ellifeedn; 2008-06-11 at 12:23. |

Ah, Outlaw Star. Pretty much my favorite anime. I remember sleeping in the middle of the day when I was eight just so I could watch it at midnight. I didn't remember a whole lot (and I still don't even after rewatching the series ), just the part in ep26 where Gene shot the thingy that would drain half his life or something like that, and Jim yelling Gene's name after he collapsed that one episode. When I was eleven, I spazzed, thinking, 'Oh mai godz I have to watch this anime!' after I finally remembered the title.
Personally, I think it was pretty stupid for Cartoon Network to cut the entire ep23 (Hot Springs, I think) just for some nudity. That episode had important things in there, such as Gene getting those last three castors that had huge effects later on in the series. Couldn't they have just cut some images out (didn't Aisha shove her boobs in someone's face or was that just a close-up? o.o) and maybe done a little more in the commercial break (not that I particularly like commercials -.-)? And, wasn't there a manga? Does anyone know where to find scans? o.o |
