Ostensibly it was because of the violence in the shows, but talk was that Voltes V was specifically canceled because the storyline about Earth's defenses opposing an oppressive, invading alien force would inspire rebellions against the martial law then in place.
    In France, we had both: Candy and the robot animes that triggered polemics about violence. Also Candy was full of dramatic events: deaths, tearful separations…

    The only anime on Australian TV when I was growing up were Kimba the White Lion, Astro Boy, Marine Boy and Speed Racer (which got taken off air for being too violent).

    Here are the covers; easier to compare and saves on scrolling through the thread.

    I guess you're right. Strange, I could have sworn there was a third vote.

    I didn't vote yesterday, so I'll do so now. I'll pick Tami's Battle Nurse, a cover that has so much stuff going on that I can't quite figure it out. That's how to make you buy a comic, to read the story!
