Sony sucks so bad and I hope the PS5 Pro and PS6 are colossal flops that cause them to go the way of SEGA

It's not a nude minor. Nintendo has no issue with whatever it is, so it is not problematic content.

The character has an adult body and is chronologically 20 or 30.

If this is true, then we're back to Sony being weirdly prudish while Nintendo is relaxed.

If they are 20-30 and have the body of an adult, where does the '12 year old' thing come from, then?

And I got that from reading comments of people on a few different type moon forums and subreddits from people who actually have the art book in question from the Japanese release, I dont have the art book myself so I can only repeat what I have heard from others

Her whole background is extraordinarily convoluted, but the author decided to have her stop aging at 12 when she was taken over, killed, and made immortal in the remake due to the updated timeline. The main takeaway is that her body is fully developed so this isn't a case of "looking like a prepubescent child but she's actually 1000."

honestly dont bother to clarify, tsukiheme is too hard to explain, and 1000 year old loli is a trope lots of people hate anyway

More Sony censorship and yet people will tell you companies censor stuff completely voluntarily when working with Sony.

I do think it's nuts that this stuff keeps happening and people keep insisting it isn't. Regardless of how you feel about it how are people still claiming Sony doesn't do this?

Maybe these censorships wouldn't happen if devs stop making their characters look like children.

Anyone have a ToU appropriate pic of the character in question?

The character does not look like a child, but they are most certainly underage in context of the game.

I literally have no skin in this, I just dont know why people are so up in arms about a naked underage character

The question should simply be if it's provocative or not. Seems like people are still treating nudity as inherently provocative, even users who I've seen actively criticize that mentality. I guess it's because it's anime so the well is poisoned? There's nudity of children in the Simpsons movie and mainstream tarot cards.

Officially, she is 25 with an unaging 18-year-old body.

That's the original. Remake makes some changes to the lore since it's an alternate timeline. Though she started aging after Roa was defeated anyway .

Y'all made it sound like it was Miyako was spread eagle or some shit.

yea I tagged said users appropriately, some were in the stellar blade topic complaining about censorship for a 15 year old also.

Weird folk.

Either way, she definitely does not look 12. This is a cropped version of the picture in question, she's in her late teens surely.

To be fair thats on me for reporting what people who own the art book from the Japanese release have mostly speculated to be the offending piece which is Ciel as she looks when she is possessed by Roa at the age of 12(which is naked aside from a little cape) when he went around murdering and raping her village and that the page in question specifically states that this is her as her body was at age 12

since they havent stated what exactly being altered we can only guess at this point, it might literally be them just editing out the parts where it states her age for all we really know at this point
Raiden2909 posted...
and that the page in question specifically states that this is her as her body was at age 12

Looking at the page right now and not seeing anything about her age. Says . Haven't played the game but that's something like Roashieru. Just the name of the character. It doesn't look 12, but I never played the game.

Nothing special happened to Ciel at the age of 12 in the original Tsukihime. It's possible that the remake made it so that Roa took over when she was 12 rather than 16. But her body clearly still aged past that point before he was separated from her.

Whether or not Sony is doing it (they are), isn't the debate here.
Sony has the free speech right to choose what content they wish to host on their servers.

That doesn't mean Sony has a GOOD reason.

Nintendo censors their OWN content. the state of the eshop will tell you they don't really care about any other kind of QC...

I tried to upload a censored version for game facts but the file was too big.

It's the most casual Barbie doll nudity I've ever seen. Doesn't even look like a specific age, just generic anime style.

What makes this even more hilarious is that the publisher for the game is Aniplex, which is owned by Sony.

So this is Sony California censoring Sony Japan.

Only nsfw art I found looking up the artbook was two panels with Hisui's breasts on one page. Unless it's a different artbook?

Just Google the name of the character, the name of the game, and then add "nude official". They're in a cape and mostly covered up

Which was censored in Japan and not America. So Sony Japan has censored Sony California.

To be clear, Aniplex is owned by Sony Music, which is a different branch of the company from Sony Interactive Entertainment. They have different rules and standards. Fate/Grand Order is owned by the former, and there are some character designs that would NOT fly on a Playstation release.

That is what is considered offensive? What a joke.

Well, from what I have heard from people who have the Japanese art book they are pretty sure they know the exact artwork that is probably the subject of this.. which is a fully nude piece or art of a 12 year old girl so. Ya

Fair.
The commercial says that Church isn't for perfect people, I guess that's why I'm an atheist.
We still at the 12 year?
I thought it was debunked multiple times.

You expect people to actually read the topic before jumping to the conclusion that the first thing they agree with is correct?

I did actually find scans of the full book, and it DOES confirm my theory from post #82. People seem to be misinterpreting it and conflating the art with the character's backstory.
