Getting Crap Past the Radar cleanup

Yes: both of the examples also seem to be about self-censorship (or, rather, the absence thereof) and not actual censors, and there is no evidence that the lack of self-censorship was because the creators pushed the "crap" under the radar.

There is a cut request pending by ~Doctor Cooper on Radar.Where On Earth Is Carmen San Diego because The examples are bad. They don't deceive a "radar"; they treat children as Fragile Flowers.. Is this valid?

If there's one example on a page that doesn't look right, do I have to discuss it here or can I just remove it?

Either way works. One suggestion would be to remove examples with an edit reason linking to this thread and explain yourself here.

It seems like the Steven Universe page might need to be looked at again. Many of the entries seem like a stretch.

A few examples:

• Amethyst rubs Steven onto the Laser Light Cannon (which is slightly penis-shaped), and Pearl says that it "isn't helping". [It looks like a flower that hasn't bloomed.]

• Steven orders a large pizza for two. Then in the background, Ronaldo does a spit take: "Steven's PREGNANT?!" Sadly, CN UK decided to cut it out. [Too obvious.]

• Garnet's Fusion Dance, which starts with pelvic thrusts that make Pearl cover Steven's eyes and ends with Garnet spreading her legs wide open as Amethyst jumps into her. [Far, far too obvious. Pearl let Steven see her fuse earlier in the series, so she can't be objecting to fusion here.]
  • To make it even more obvious, a test animatic used Estelle's "Freak" as placeholder music, which has rather suggestive to explicit lyrics. [Or maybe they just wanted the final track to sound like Freak. Update: I just listened to the animatic in comparison to the final, and the songs are barely similar.]

I would do the clean up on my own, but I have only watched the first two seasons and don't want to spoil the rest for myself.

I feel like there should be something on South Park. Matt and Trey stated that every time the censors complained, they put forward something even worse, and it always got through. So rather than individual examples, the entire show does it.

^ That's Censor Decoy, not getting Crap Past.... .

In Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt they usually cover vagina's with a satire censored tag. However it's pretty much a TV-MA/R rating. This wouldn't usually qualify but because they usually don't show female nudity and in one episode they do after two times in the same episode it being shown as censored but then a couple of minutes later a vagina was shown. Would that count as Getting Crap Past the Radar?

EDIT: The vagina also has pubic hair.

Shantae: Half-Genie Hero has these examples. That's rated T to my knowledge. I don't think this is anything more than suggestive themes, which the rating allows. Cut?

• Near the beginning of the game, a child NPC asks Shantae if she's a medusa, because his mom always tells him to avert his eyes from her.
• When Shantae falls off screen in the flying carpet race, she is helped back onto the screen by the audience... with a surprised Shantae clutching her butt.
• A late-game mission tasks you with finding a new hat for someone. A hat which reads "Foxy Grandma".
  "I think I feel a romantic song comin' on. Now I hope this ain't too hot 'n steamy for general audiences."
• The enemy Mermaids don't have any type of bra on. Like Mer-Shantae, they don't have any visible "details", but unlike Mer-Shantae, the Mermaids are fully animated, "balloons" included.

None of those sound like actual GCPTR examples, but I've not played the game so I'm hesitant to give a solid on them.

I'm gonan check to see if the other games are rated T, because if they are then it looks like the page can stand to be cut.

• Original title: E
• Pirate's Curse and Risky's Revenge: E10

I retract my statement

Yeah, earlier games have lower ratings. I considered bringing those up as well, but I'm familiar with those games, but those examples are more reasonable due to the rating. If someone else is more familiar they can bring it up.

Cut the game I mentioned from the page, though.

AFIAK the newer Shantae games that are more specifically targeted at the older audience revel in status as fanservice games so they don't count.

Radar.Highschool Of The Dead

Can I just go ahead and cut the entire page? The work is outright ecchi from the word go and makes no efforts to hide its sexiness. The page is ultimately "a list of sexy moments" with nothing to do with radar one way or the other.

Seems like. Worth also locking?

Never seen the show but from I what I know of it, it's a hard 16+ (or I guess 18 depending on the country) Seinen full of gore and sexual content.

There's no way it needs a radar page.

I've seen the show, and I agree that a radar page is not necessary. Gore, sexual content and Toilet Humor. There is no way this was made for any age demographic that needs a radar in the first place (for the west at least).

My cut request for Maken Ki was declined, so I'm gonna bring it up here: shouldn't this page get deleted for the same reason as High School Of The Dead? The series isn't aimed at children at all, so this is little more than a "sexy moments" page.

Looking back through the thread, I saw that name mentioned at least a half-dozen times as an example of a series where the trope is pretty much impossible due to the target audience meaning that there isn't a radar. I'm now actually a little surprised it still existed.

I started reading this thread out if curiousity, then went and checked an entry for one if my favorite bands, Journey, and realized that the entry someone had put on the band's page for this trope didn't fit the standards of the trope at all. In cleaning it up and removing it, I noticed that many, many entries on the Music page (especially under any of the Rock/Metal sections) are not this trope, either. I'd suggest flagging the whole Music page for a cleanup, too.

I agree with this. Lots of the examples of music are just "inappropriate language in a song aimed at adults" which isn't this trope at all. Like if it was a song aimed at children, that's a legit example, or not being cut for radio, but not explicit lyrics on an explicit album!

Okay who is this Peter Johnson mentioned in Percy Jackson And The Olympians and why is the mere mention of his name considered innuendo.

From what I can gather, both "Peter" and "Johnson" are slang terms for penis. Since Dionysus was also the god of fertility, I guess that's the train of thought for that entry. But I doubt it, since Dionysus not getting the names of the characters right was a Running Gag throughout the series.

Oh, now I get it. I thought that Peter Johnson was some sort of hippie cult leader, basically Charles Manson minus the homicide.

It might count as a Genius Bonus instead considering what said about Dionysus being the god of fertility. Maybe?

I'd run that by the "Is This An Example" thread, though.
