Nukitashi Anime Censorship: 3 Versions Explained Before July 19
Fans have likely seen this trend across news outlets, but here it is: the Nukitashi anime censorship plans have been revealed ahead of its premiere. Adapted from a popular hentai game (and manga), the anime is set to debut on July 19 on AT‑X, featuring three unique censorship styles tailored to different platforms.
How Nukitashi Anime Censorship Works
While I’ve never played the Nukitashi games, I’ve read the manga—and trust me, it’s quite risqué. When Kadokawa announced the anime adaptation, the big question was: how will they handle the explicit scenes? Their solution: three separate versions.
Fully Regulated TV Version
The version airing on Japanese broadcast television is heavily censored. During steamy moments, the screen is completely obscured—basically a giant censor block.
Streaming Version (Bird Cover Censoring)
For streaming platforms, viewers get a glimpse of what’s happening—but the characters’ private parts are strategically hidden by animated “birds” (the classic pixelated mosaic replacement).
“Island Seiran” Uncensored Version
The uncensored version, named Island Seiran, will premiere on AT‑X and later be included on the Blu‑ray release. This version shows the full unedited adult content.
Fans wondering about fan service should note: the Blu‑ray edition of Volume 1 comes with a risqué figure of one of the characters—yes, it can be displayed nude.
About the Story
Set on a fictional island where sex is law—and those who refuse are arrested—Nukitashi follows a group of students who oppose this rule. They choose to stay abstinent while plotting to overthrow the island’s bizarre regulating system.
