It doesn't affect TV Tokyo right? They will still make the anime for a more mature audience, like including and portraying all the violence? Cuz Naruto becoming commercialised for children would be the worst F*cking thing ever! I want it to retain all it's glory.

So how does it work exactly? Does it have anything to do with the way it is created in Japan?
Naruto in english, lost its glory from day one when they choose bad voice actors(in my opinion). Also they cant decide what to keep in japense.

So basically i dont care about disney owning naruto, as i dont watch the english version.

what do you mean by that^?
I think they mean that they can't decide which words to keep in Japanese and which to translate. For example, should they call the village "Leaf Village" or call it "Konoha"? Maybe they're complaining that they don't keep it consistent: Konoha one episode and Leaf Village another. I don't know any real examples because I don't watch the dub.

Disney a bunch hypocritical pigs why buy the rights for distributing something like a Japanese anime that is known to have violence and blood and gore and then try to clean it up? What's the point? Hell we all know that Disney has investments in not so wholesome endeavors who do they think they're fooling?!.....

Disney airing the show won't affect the way the Japanese company makes it. The only difference is that Disney is likely to censor things in the anime when they show it on tv: cutting bloody scenes, changing insults ... The Japanese version still keeps everything.
I think that a company a few years ago censored the kiss between Sasuke and Naruto - they didn't show it, only let the viewers hear the sound of kissing and that was it. At least that's what I read.

But if Disney censors things in the anime, then it won't affect the Japanese version at all. They can't force the Japanese to censor their own work.

Awesome! Thank you! I was a bit afraid of Disney's influence with money. I don't even care about the dubbed version. That's all I wanted to know.

They may be able to censor the version they show on tv in America for example, but they can't do anything about the Japanese decision to show everything uncensored ^^
After all, the Japanese can demand they give the rights back to show it, because the show still belongs to them (and of course Kishimoto-sensei). If Disney decides to be as stupid as to tell the Japanese company that they should censor scenes in their version, then all the company has to do is revoke their permission to let Disney air the show.

So don't worry, while Disney may censor their version, they can't do anything about the Japanese version ^^
