Sakura Tsûshin

Based on a twenty volume manga series by U-Jin.

A censored version of the series was made for late-night Japanese TV broadcast, where bras and panties were added to cover up nudity. This version ended up being mistakenly released in the US by ADV Films spread over 4 volumes on VHS and bilingual DVD. After complaints from fans, ADV acquired the original unedited version of the show (which was owned by a different company in Japan) and released it in a 2-disc DVD set with re-translated subtitles and without a dub track. A dub was not made of the uncut version until 2005, included in a re-release spread over 2 separate DVD volumes.

Referenced in Late Night with Conan O'Brien: Alan Cumming/Vivica A. Fox/Ricky Fante (2004)
