Idolmaster U149 Blu-ray Increases Ecchi Content
In the Spring 2023 season, another idol-themed anime was broadcast alongside “Oshi no Ko,” and that anime is “The iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls: U149.” It focuses on young girls training to become idols.
This anime tells the story of nine young girls who are training to become idols. Given that it features a cast of small girls and belongs to the well-known Idolmaster series, no one expected the Blu-ray release to increase the “ecchi” content.
Idolmaster U149 Blu-ray Increases Ecchi Content
There is a Twitter profile that purchases all anime Blu-rays and compares scenes from the TV version with the corrections made on the Blu-ray. Imagine the surprise when the Idolmaster U149 Blu-ray increased the ecchi content.
Firstly, let’s take a look at the scene below featuring the character Matoba Risa. In the TV version, we don’t get a clear view of her body, but the Blu-ray release made some changes:
Another unexpected alteration occurred in a different scene involving the same character. As you can see in the two images below, Risa in the TV version is wearing a skirt that covers most of her legs, but the Blu-ray release “adjusted” this:
I came across some comments, and from what I could gather, these are changes that literally no one expected the Blu-ray to make. One person jokingly commented that the “Second season is guaranteed now,” suggesting that Blu-ray sales are likely to increase.
Another commenter humorously suggested calling the police in this case, and there were those who couldn’t believe that these changes were actually made for the disc. In any case, this was just one of the Blu-ray volumes, and we’ll see if there are more unexpected changes down the line.
