[Music]
we're just lucky i guess
welcome to watch mojo and today we'll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
most censored digimon moments
[Music]
[Applause]
what have you done to my wicked
beautifulness what on earth is that
thing
for this list we'll be looking at the
scenes across the digimon franchise
that were cropped and edited for western
audiences were these for the best
or was it nothing short of digital
discrimination
let us know in the comments and as
always you can catch me on twitter
ashjaebow so head over there give me a
follow
and let me know which digimon list you
want to see next
i don't know what she said but it's
pretty clear what she's doing number 10
sake and milkshakes digimon tamers
that's 100 pure digital data they're
missing in
get it dirty and the shakes are
worthless apparently they really do
bring all the boys to the yard
though in this instance it's because a
bunch of gekkomon are being forced to
whip them up
to quench the first of the sinister
orochimon
to keep the peace we devoted all our
energies to making milkshakes for that
hideous creature
before you start questioning why a giant
set of snakes are obsessed with all that
frothy goodness
it's worth noting they were originally
brewing up alcohol
okay so maybe that just raises more
questions about digimon getting hammered
but still hard to believe we nearly had
a digital booze up
gun to the face digimon adventure 02
don't worry matt will even the odds
that's what i'm afraid of wait until
those guards get a good look at you and
warm on
as the digidestine embark on a world
tour
they endeavor to aid their fellow chosen
ones from the enemy digimon
whilst trying to prevent any
international incidents
how dumb do you think i am you little
punks just want to get in there and take
the ruins
tag the ruins now get out of here go
home
a trip down to mexico almost saw the end
of ken
and matt where after being caught by a
guard while trying to sneak into a
temple
had a gun drawn on them the kind where
you have to ask yourself
if you're feeling lucky all right are we
back
[ __ ] you all right well like a pair of
punks the two dash away before getting
dropped then and there
he called me a punk number eight
citromon digimon data squad
[Music]
okay so they won't let kids see guns
makes sense right
but how about bombs well turns out they
went to even greater lengths to censor
those
in this episode the data squad is
confronted by bomber nannymon
a giant sentient bomb they decided the
best way around this was to turn him
into a much more child-friendly orange
prepare to get juiced now named
citromon this bad boy traded in his
explosives for
citrus fruits which he chucked at the
team it's a type of censorship you
wouldn't believe
unless you saw it i'll be back
[Music]
number seven no kisses allowed digimon
tamers
[Music]
[Applause]
accidental kisses between two characters
of the same gender
nowhere to be found here move along in
spite of this little interaction being
nothing more than a quick gag following
kazu and kenta falling on top of each
other
the scene was removed completely in the
dub if they ever do get a digimon they
might as well just go and order them to
jump off a bridge
well it's about time it's the furthest
thing from gratuitous
and while its absence doesn't exactly
take away anything from the grand design
of what amounted
to a filler episode it's nonetheless
interesting to see where the mind of the
execs were at the time
and don't yell at us like you're our
teacher or something
yeah right number six no buddhism
digimon adventure
i once saw a show about this roman
physicist he believed that repeating a
phrase helps you focus mind over matter
remember that scene where joe took on a
giant bat game on and made it lose its
power thanks to a chant about
mind over mata yeah kind of weird when
you look back on it
pokemon lose your power pokemon lose
your power
pokemon lose your power turns out this
was an addition to the dubs part
since in the original he was actually
using a buddhist mantra
to undo the ghost digimon's power not
only does it make way more sense given
the context
but casts the change in a poor light
were they afraid about kids being
exposed to another religion
[Music]
number five that's not a toy digimon
adventure
this was always good for a few laughs
monster
yes that's very entertaining lord puppet
man but guess firearms were a big
problem back in the early days of
digimon
as one of the dark masters puppetmon was
already a little messed up in the head
but toss in this now deleted scene and
his idea of playtime
becomes a whole lot more dangerous you
know kiwiman this isn't as much fun as i
thought it would be i should just
destroy them
all going through his toy box puppetmon
at one point pulls out what appears to
be a real-life
gun before loading it up with fresh ammo
does the digital world have a gun crime
crisis that we've been kept in the dark
about
i can outsmart him how boring i'm not
having any fun at all
what number four zoe's outfits
digimon frontier now in this one i'd
look like a race queen
the stripes are nice but white is so
boring while we're not saying digimon
can't have the occasional
implied innuendo perhaps the creators
might want to be careful with who they
choose to do
said innuendoing zoey what's wrong are
you okay
in this instance we've got zoe who
whilst going through a brand new
wardrobe at a digital resort
shows off her figure in everything from
a bathing suit
to a full-on bikini hell if she hadn't
noticed that toucanmon was peeping on
her
she would have ended up flashing the
audience
[Music]
given her actual age this would have
been a bit of a problem
so they completely took out the third
more racy outfit
maybe sense ring was the best option
here
okay bella but not much there
now this one's nice number three cousin
did you want adventure
[Music]
don't get in cars with strangers it's a
valuable lesson to teach kids
and obviously something the show wanted
to enforce while trying to hitchhike to
their next destination back in the real
world the digidestined luckily managed
to catch the attention of sora's cousin
convenient right
just one problem in the original
japanese
that wasn't her cousin it was a random
stranger who gave them a lift
because he found sora and mimi too cute
to resist
yeah not sure how we feel about that one
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
number two digimon fusion
finally we come to the pinnacle of
digimon censorship
at least when it comes to dramatically
downgrading a character's sex appeal
we can only imagine what the studio's
reaction was when they took a gander at
mirvamon
tall amazonian busty as hell with an
outfit that gives away
way more camel toemon than expected
the sensor machine went into overdrive
here while they couldn't take away all
her ravenous features
they did do their dardis to cover it up
either by adding more layers erasing
kids
and doing whatever necessary to bring
the sexy factor as
close to zero as possible you helped me
make amends with my brother
and i'm glad i could finally return the
favor thanks

apocalype
digimon adventure
[Laughter]
they may not have changed his appearance
but what the dub did to this final boss
was nothing short of character
assassination
in case you weren't away apocalyn was
originally meant to be a figure of
terror
a monster straight out of your
nightmares
his screams the way he carved up his own
body
it was terrifying so much so that the
dub dialed it back
all the way into the negatives by making
him a
laughingstock
wait a minute what am i laughing at i'm
supposed to be depressed
running on hot and cold water jealous of
humanity
always being left with the crust and
never the pizza
this was just painful to watch answer me
this
why do all of you get the pizza while i
get the crust
oh i can't take all these metaphors do
