* The English dub of ''[[Zatch Bell]]'' apparently put underpants on the title character (in the original Japanese he walked around with nothing under his dress -- yes, he wears a dress) because in Japan nudity on young boys isn't frowned upon (this also happened with young Gohan in ''[[Dragon Ball]]'', though in the dub they just cut the scene). This led to a few confusing scenes where he's doing stuff like holding his boxers while wearing boxers and swimming with them while his clothes -- ''including the boxers'' -- can be seen on the bank.
* ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' episode 119 features a [[Monster of the Week|Daimon]] called [http://www.wikimoon.org/index.php?title=U-Chouten U-Chouten] who basically wears large star shaped [[wikipedia:Pasties|pasties]] over her nipples. This was deemed too risque for [[Cartoon Network]] and the episode was sent back to Cloverway so they could add a digital bikini top to her; meanwhile, [[Cartoon Network]] skipped the episode in its initial run -- despite it being a pivotal episode wherein the identity of Sailor Saturn is revealed. Though they did air it later, this really annoyed fans.
* The American broadcast of ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team]]'' had these added when the male and female leads took an impromptu hot springs dip.
* ''[[Outlaw Star]]'' put a [[Digital Bikini]] on Melfina when she went into the water tank to control the ship, never mind how she was ''just'' covered [[Hand or Object Underwear|behind her crossed arms and part of the tank]] already. The same goes for when she is first "discovered", which is a popular comparison shot -- the fetal position just didn't cover it.
* ''[[Naruto]]''

== Video Games ==
* The introduction movie for the [[Play StationPlayStation]] version of ''[[Soul Edge]]'' has Sophitia interrupted whilst bathing by a god appearing from the water. In the Japanese version she's naked, but everywhere else she's wearing a white swimsuit. Although to their defense, at very least the swimsuited version is playable.
* In ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]'', Johnny Sasaki is seen bent over with his butt in the air in his underwear in the Japanese version. In the US version, on the other hand, the underwear is removed and replaced with a pixelized censoring. The pixelized version did NOT make it into the US release of ''[[Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots|MGS4]]'', and you can see what they were trying to cover up in the original [[PS 1]] version anyway by [[Squick|crawling right next to his ass and using your binoculars to zoom through the pixellization.]]
* In the PC game ''[[Princess Maker]] 2'', you can take your daughter Olive on a vacation as a way to build your relationship and decrease stress. How old she is and what season it is -- as well as where you're vacationing -- determines which of the photos you'll be shown. Most of said photos are innocent by the game's standards, but the translators decided to slap MS Paint clothes on Olive [http://www.kkpmc.net/pm2/12s-sum.gif sunbathing] and [http://www.kkpmc.net/pm2/16s-sum.gif swimming] naked. To be fair, she's supposed to be 12 or 13 in the sunbathing photo. In fact, the ''four'' beach summer vacation photos had this. The [http://www.kkpmc.net/pm2/10s-sum_a.gif "sitting on a pool"] and [http://www.kkpmc.net/pm2/14s-sum.gif "resting in a quiet beach corner"] ones had Olive actually wearing more see-through shirts/dresses, so these were slightly altered to not look so transparent.
* Odd example: the pre-release box art for the Western release of ''[[Disgaea 3 Absence of Justice]]'' depicts one of the game's ''kunoichi'' in her usual cleavage-baring top about to operate on a Prinny. In the final release, the middle of her top is filled in with black.
