Moon Cosmic Power [Original VS Korea Version]

[@ZeoViolet]

I find this rather interesting, for the fact the Korean version made an attempt at more realistic censoring than just cutting or blurring the whole thing (which would have killed the _whole_ charm of the scene). It at least gives you the satisfaction of a transformation scene, just without implied nudity. (On a personal level, I hate censorship, but I can see they at least blew some money creating an alternate powerup scene.)

They actually used a clip from the opening and it'd fit really well if the background matched along with other tweaks.

I was in the Army on tour in South Korea some time ago. You stayed in a hotel before you went to your assigned base for your orders. As I was getting settled in, I turned on the T.V. I caught the movie Hostel's ending. You know, the ending with the main movie's antagonist member of the Elite Hunting Club responsible for Paxton's and his friend's predicament? And him getting lured with the EHC business card, and then getting his hand cut up and his throat slit in the bathroom stall? All the blood was just blurred out, and the violent scene was all jumpy, and edited down. My face was like: (o_____________o) Was NOT expecting that. I was talking about it to some of my new friends later in the lobby, and they just laughed. They already knew, particularly the Korean-born ones. So basically, the best part of the movie just looked like someone put pieces of saran wrap over it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJXTmYJ3jJl8qKM
