Oops! We kind of caught them with their pants down. Or, tops off... Yesterday Nebs reported that FUNimation was streaming the uncensored version of Strike Witches -- and a matter of hours later, the videos had been replaced with the censored version.

Fans of the series will be able to purchase the uncut episodes when the series is released on DVD as well as any subsequent subscription or download-to-own digital platforms."  So don't worry, lolifans: you will still get your naked magical flying loli witch girls anime.
