Kyubey actually doesn’t get all the evil stuff in, no corruption stuff, everything is like the magical girl anime it should have been until it got evil.

The environmentalism's still there, but the dark episodes are significantly cleansed or banned. Some of them are even updated to the current issues with climate change.

All traces of a developing narrative are removed, because that's just too complicated for kids nowadays. It becomes a weekly sitcom dedicated to cruddy jokes, cringey dialogue, and the status quo always remains the same by the end of each episode. The characters are dressed in full-body spandex to avoid claims of indecency for kids' television.

Catra becomes a literal talking cat.

Hoo boy:

  • The Flash made all women "go missing."
  • Joy is an ordinary candy that was unknowingly "poisoned;" Brad still could take it after seeing the mutants because plothole.
  • Criminals run away when beaten, mutants return to normal and run away.
  • Everybody wears a shirt.
  • There are no rapists, just thieves.
  • Rando is rewritten as a legitimate evil villain who just wants to destroy the world for some reason, his backstory is taken away.
  • Obviously dead bodies are gone.
  • Etc etc etc basically the game would be boiled down to just a guy looking for his daughter in a canyon world.

The Binding of Isaac.

This should be fun.

  • Isaac spends the game fully clothed.

  • The game's Ugly Cute aesthetic is replaced with a stereotypically cutesy one.

  • The character designs are substantially less grotesque across the board.

  • All references to religion are removed, including turning Mom into a Generic Doomsday Villain.

  • The intro is replaced with a rap number.

This one's kinda tough due to both the subject matter and the fact that I've never played Katawa Shojo before, but I'll give it a shot.

  • All the sex scenes are removed (understandably)
  • A large amount of romantic subtext is removed or reworked for a younger audience.
  • The game is presented in a more lighthearted and comedic tone while still trying to handle the subject matter tastefully, all to varying degrees of success.

Nobody dies, they get really big boo-boos. Also it’s treated more like Saved by the Bell meets Hannah Montana with the character archetypes and cliches.

It becomes a bit like those Saturday morning cartoons they were making of adult franchises in the 80s for some reason like Robocop The Animated Series.

There is no blood only oil, the terrorists are replaced with villains, and Denton only uses the non lethal routed.

The conspiracies and their philosophies are more simplified to kids can understand their motivations, the show ends on a cliffhanger so you don't know who Denton sides with.


Lets go for a hard one this time.

Honestly, this could have been done but I just see them toning down the themes a lot, and probably retconning a lot of events.

It would be a divide by zero moment, as trying to censor themselves would create a paradox that'll cause the universe to implode.

Half-Life, Opposing Force and Blue Sift optional.

The headcrabs are literal teddy bears, the blood is replaced with glitter, and Freeman uses a candycane as his main weapon. Oh, themes about spreading positivity are thrown in for good measure.

The characters don't die, instead going to the Shadow Realm. zouken is reimagined as a loving grandad, and caster is a harmless prankster.

There will be some differences:

  • The period scene at the beginning is replaced with Carrie dropping her books in the hallway and the girls throw their own books at her. They don't even say "Plug it up"

  • Religious references are removed and Margaret is just a crazy but well-meaning lady.

  • Carrie doesn't have any telekinesis

  • At the prom, Carrie is dumped in ketchup instead of pig blood (oh that bucket missed Tommy by a longshot) and runs out of the prom and doesn't kill anybody at all.
