So like, as always, just go on Nyaa. https://t.co/69tJ6VZTfqAt one point in this episode of Mushoku Tensei season 2, Darius Silva Ganius made an appearance. Those who have watched the series detest the character since he is considered a vile human being who would do anything to gain power and satisfy his lust. The episode showed him with a woman who was dressed provocatively, and he got handsy with her. In the uncensored version, the scebe got more uncomfortable as he stroked the woman’s lower back while being in a conversation with someone else.However, it is important to note that the accusations directed towards Crunchyroll is not justified. The censorship is always done by the respective anime series, and in Mushoku Tensei season 2, it is no different.
