3. Pokemon Gets The Banhammer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFhgbpt7eKY I'm sure that you think Pokemon is this pure angel of pureness, but you're likely mistaken. Pokemon creators are like all show creators: they like to push the boundaries of what is allowed and when Pokemon pushed they pushed hard. What instantly comes to my mind is the fact that Pokemon tried airing an episode that included a pedo grandpa that hints to having an incest crush on his granddaughter, some very sexual shots of Misty. Yeah, that is James, with boobs. No, they're not real, but does that make it better? Didn't think so. If you don't know Japanese don't worry, you aren't missing much (and luckily I know Japanese! You can totally trust me); basically Misty is saying she cannot believe it, Jessie and James mock her being flat chested and then when James inflates his boobs more he says maybe when she is an adult she'll boobs like that. It is a very disturbing episode and one that was it eventually aired in the States: but with so much censorship you wouldn't believe me if I pointed out which episode it was.
