Shows you want to see uncut?

[Jeikobu]

Just for fun/sake of discussion, what anime do you feel need to be released uncut w/ the original Japanese language (and possibly a new, uncut dub) in the US/Canada/etc.?

Personally, I think practically everything licensed should have an available uncut release. But here are some of my top picks:

-Pocket Monsters
-One Piece
-Toukyou (Tokyo) Mew Mew
-In the Beginning (currently it's only available in dub-only VHS tapes, which I'm sure are long since OOP)
-Tetsuwan Atom (Astro Boy)(the 1960s and 2003 versions (1980's already out here uncut, thankfully), and anything else Tetsuwan-related)
-Jungle Taitei (Kimba the White Lion)(all of it that isn't uncut, especially the 1960s series)
-Mobile Suit Gundam (the original series)
-Zoids Zero
-Zoids: Chaotic Century

You know, thinking about it, I've been lucky. No show I am really dying to see has ever been released without an uncut option coming at some point. I'd like to see every show uncut of course, but it's not like, say, anything licensed by 4Kids interests me much.

Word.

My picks are...

-Dangaioh (Worst. Dub. Ever.)
-Shaman King
-One Piece
-Space Battleship Yamato (A re-done and competent re-release for Star Blazers would be nice too)
-Astro Boy: 2003 version (since the Korean release is never going to finish, apparently. )

Same here. There have been shows I've followed that were unfinished, like Slam Dunk and Fist Of The North Star, but no shows I've collected have been released edited. The one exception I can think of is Rave Master. I like the manga alot and was terribly disappointed by the hackjob that TOKYOPOP did on the anime. If they ever got around to releasing an uncut, bilingual version of RM, I would still be interested in buying that...

Aside of the very small bit about eps 14, 15 and 18, isn't it already uncut?

And I thought that was just a matter of getting the broadcast version versus the home video version? I guess that can be called cut, in a way, but when I see a thread like this I think of things that just have been outright censored, or monolingual.

The only thing licensed right now that I can think of is Pretty Cure, though I'm really only interested in the first two seasons. And Tokyo MewMew. Of course, the first two seasons of Sailor Moon could use a decent and Dic free release (and an accurate dub for all of it would be nice, too).

The only shows I'm interested that have been released edited or dub only are Zoids: Chaotic Century and Mobile Suit Gundam. I hear they both have pretty good dubs and only the former is edited (and its not much, from what I hear) but its still a deal breaker for me.

I don't expect to ever see Zoids: Chaotic Century uncut (which means I'll never see more than those couple of episodes I saw on TV), but I think there may be a chance of Mobile Suit Gundam getting a bilingual release someday.

I'll second Tokyo Mew Mew and Pretty Cure. (TMM didn't even have an R1 DVD release of any kind.) Did Pretty Cure even air on TV?

And Ojamajo Doremi of course!

I'd also love bilingual Sailor Moon and Mobile Suit Gundam.
