Ok can someone clarify if this was actually printed or officially digitally released anywhere with these black bars? I'd find that very surprising. I'd think it's just done by whoever scanned this or something, in a quick and half-assed way just to comply with laws, for what they view as a draft preview release or something.
There is no way in hell these make it to any sort of print release, or even an official digital release.
It's also interesting to note how some panels have a much smaller magic light or smoke censoring as opposed to giant black bars. The first is clearly by the artist, the second is some post-processing by whoever rushed this draft release.
On that line of thought, why is the first type of censoring even done if it's not applied everywhere but just in some places? Maybe it is actually everywhere, but whoever prepared the release thought it was insufficient and added their own?
Lastly, on one panel they even censored the man's nipple, along with half his chest. Is that also necessary in Japanese laws? WTF, Japan!
