But...they show it on Cartoon Network Saturday nights...
yeah the edited version ... everything is super edited on cartoon network and all those other tv channels ... look at pokemon, Eva, Cowboy Bebop, etc... the list goes on but those are a few i though i would mention ...

EVA? Yeah...Pokemon? Yeah...Bebop super edited? what have you been watching?
Sure, there's some excess blood, a few quick pages of nudie mags, and a little bit of language trimmed, but I'd hardly call it 'super edited' by any stretch...I mean, compared to, say, early DBZ or Macross (...excuse me, I mean...Robotech *under breath* patience...soon you'll be able to get the AnimEigo boxsets...) Bebop got off light...I mean, if it WAS super edited Spike would be running around with toothpicks constantly, Pierrot Le Fou would probably have never aired, nor would Jupiter Jazz...
Hey, they call the block 'Adult Swim' for a reason...
p.s. For that matter, Big O and FLCL ran with next to no editing as well...CN isn't the great Satan of anime, accept it and move on (...Carl Macek, on the other hand...)
