Japanese censoring ?
editAccording to the "In No Sho" art-book, a "La Blue Girl" mook featuring screenshots from the OAV, there should be a scene in episode 6 (aka "Shin Inju Gakuen 2", the episode with cyborgs) of the original series when, during Mikos humiliation, just before the SM scene, she is teleported in a classroom to serve as the plaything of 2-3 thugs (a scene coming straight from the manga, btw).
This scene is not included in the US release but, curiouser, was not included in the japanese DVD release too. Where can we find this scene ? Was it on the old VHS or LD releases ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.249.71.42 (talk • contribs)
- Yes, I have been told that this famous scene was only included in the original japanese release (LD and VHS). No idea as to why it was cut in the DVD version. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.250.73.147 (talk • contribs)
- To be a little more specific - this scene was only included in the collector LD-box "Eien no Miko Mido" (which also included a garage kit of the heroine). I don't know the specifics about why this scene wasn't included in the original JP releases; if I could hazard a guess, I would say that it wasn't finished at the time : according to staff interviews in the books, they encountered problems with outsourcing several times, in episodes 3-4 for example, with scenes that needed to be redone close to release. On a side note and as an example, I own a cel of Miko and Ninnin paddling in some weird otherwordly orange liquid we see in episode 6, yet it doesn't directly match any scene from any version of the anime, so I think it's clearly an example of another scene that was close to completion but ultimately scrapped.193.58.223.72 (talk) 15:51, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
I think I've seen all the censored stuff
editI owned all subbed La Blue Girl videos from Central Park Media Corp. in the mid-90s. I think NOTHING was censored then. Most notably, the scenes from episodes 3 and 6. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.215.108.122 (talk • contribs)
- I asked a mod from animeondvd several years ago on this subject and he told me too that his VHS weren't censored. According to rumors, the very first VHS editions weren't censored, censorship only came a little time after. That being said, what I think is important to note is that, IMHO, there isn't any completely uncensored and unedited edition of La Blue Girl available today, in any language.193.58.223.72 (talk) 15:54, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
Why not a Category ?
editYeah, I know, the idea seems ludicrous, but we have three articles now : the main article, "La Blue Girl Returns" and "Miko Mido". Maybe four if someone begin the "Lady Blue" article. Five if someone forget all pretention to sanity and do the dreaded "Shikima" article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.250.125.83 (talk • contribs)
Uncensored?
editI'm a bit confused as to how to purchase this series... I'd prefer uncensored, with Japanesse audio and English subtitles, however, the article says that even one of the Japanese DVD releases was censored! How can I obtain the full series? Coolgamer 19:43, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
- According to the Editing Report the very first edition US VHS edition was uncensored & uncut, but it may be a little hard to locate copies nowaday. Or you could buy the old VHS/LD japanese releases, there would be mosaics but these releases are unedited AFAIK. And don't forget to send a mail of complaints to Anime 18 (selling an edited version as 'uncensored' is false advertisement, to me).—Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.254.181.138 (talk • contribs)

Miyu Mido
editWhy isn't Miyu Mido (Miko's older half(?) sister) mentioned in the list of characters? I would add her myself, but unfortunately I've only seen one episode of this OVA so I don't know a lot about her. - x-Flare-x 19:08, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
- Because she is not as sexy as her sister ?
- I second this answer.193.58.223.72 (talk) 15:55, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:B 1000176536.jpg
editImage:B 1000176536.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Re-upload the logo
editI have re-upload the logo on the article since the last one got deleted for no reason. Special thanks to me. =) --Girla PurpleHeart 02:51, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Spring Cleanup
editOkay people. So the wikitocracy finally found about this article, and several issues have been signaled : lack of references, plot summary too long, disputed neutrality (where/what ?), and original research. Any idea as to improve and/or correct these issues without losing too much data ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.253.163.154 (talk) 17:50, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
Well there is no plot summary aside from the 'basic premise' section, and that's pretty reasonable (I removed the tag). It's also fairly neutral, even though there's far too much detail/original research in the scene cuts section :) The characters, sexcraft and scene cuts sections need references, but the rest is fine. Maybe move the tags to the relevant sections, instead of having a blanket tag? Otherwise no-one knows what to fix —Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.234.158.118 (talk) 23:44, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
Proposed merge?
editI read the article history and it appears that TheFarix was the one who placed the merge tags. allen四names 20:22, 20 September 2009 (UTC)
- La Blue Girl Returns has now been merged with this article. I will wait for some edits before considering the merge of Lady Blue (anime). -- allen四names 07:09, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
- I plan on removing two sections in this article and stubbing Lady Blue (anime) before merging them. "Injutsu (Ninjutsu sexcraft)" and "Scene cuts in the US releases" are either useless or contain information better placed elsewhere. -- allen四names 02:18, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
- Done -- allen四names 22:59, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
