I’m not giving up on encouraging people into becoming decensorers, I thought I could try another approach :)

For starters, the BEST decensoring guide I have ever seen is Ero-Otoko’s Decensoring Guide, there’s no way around it.

And, as a complement, I thought of taking a video of a decensoring session :)

I have to targets : (1) to show you it’s EASY (so cmon, do it, and share it :twisted: ) and (2) to teach the best (IMO) method for most of the mangas out there

Fair warnings :
– photoshop should help ;) CS5 was used here.
– this method is best for “grayed rectangles” censorship bars, but it may used for pretty much everything else
– there are SEVERAL decensoring methods, I only describe one. Other methods may be far better for other persons.
– it’s my favorite method, though, its two best points are that it’s FAST and it could be used in a LOT of mangas
– when it’s thin black bars censorship, actually it’s the same with, as first step, to remove the black bar and draw the lines, next filling in with clone stamps for surfaces
– I tried my best to NOT use keyboard shortcuts for clarity (except Quick Mask, Q to enter, Q to exit, where the hell was it hidden within the menus ?!?), otherwise it would have been much faster
– I am almost incapable of decensoring pictures requiring redrawing skills (guessing is OK, but drawing something entirely hidden : no way)
– the video won’t help you with pictures requiring redrawing skills
– this is a video demonstration, not a detailed explanation, self-learn it yourself afterwards, google helps
– tools like the Clone Stamp are, like… magic ! –  But they require a few hours of try-and-see before they really become an extension of your fingers
– did I mention Ero-Otoko’s guide was best for starters ?

Enough talk, here are the links :)

– streaming version , if megaporn’s link works, I’m puzzled, because in the end it game me a megavideo and not megaporn link, even though I uploaded my file through megaporn.com’s page o_O
– update : damn, the video was super blurry. PLEASE, if you know of a streaming host taking porn pics and serving them HQ, it would be appreciated.
– download links : mirror 1, mirror 2, mirror 3

The video has been resized by a 2:1 factor, to save file size.

The day I see I can successfully use another decensoring method, I’ll also catch it on video, to share it again :)

Comments and suggestions are welcome.
And the final conclusion : see, it’s easy ! So, come on, why don’t YOU try decensoring stuff you like, the more uncensored hentai the merrier ;)

This is a great idea Oliver. Now I'll have the knowledge to contribute to the hentai community that I've been a part of for so many years. Thanks!^_^

When I saw this thead I thouht; "Hey, if it is really that easy there can't be any drawing involved."
And I was really looking forward to decensorers my favorite h-manga Hishoka Drop.
Soon to find out that you needed to "connect the lines", however in Hishoka Drop there is no lines to connect.

Anyway, thanks for the link, hopefully someone with more drawing skills then me will come along.

Since you went out of your way to make a topic about decensoring, I'll take the opportunity to rant.

I don't understand the decensoring community. I don't think removing a few black bars really adds to the experience of reading an h-manga. A hardcore manga with with bars is still hardcore, not at all like western censorship. Even white-outed genitals (i.e. Manabe Joji, Hidemaru) far surpass western softcore. Can anyone explain to me why this isn't a waste of time?

Aside from this pet-peeve of mine, Thanks for your blog, Oliver.

Simple : a manga with censorship won't allow me to fully enjoy the drawings, unlike an uncensored manga.

You must know of the "temporary suspension of disbelief" idea, right ?

With hentai manga, there's a "constant put-off self-defence protection reflex", for fear of stumbling upon a picture so annoyingly censored it kills our boner… Except if the pic is uncensored.

I don't speak for you, most obviously, but a good number of people share my opinion on this matter. To each his own, heh.

Xhamster adds compression and those other two more than likely would not allow this since it's not pornography, but rather a tutorial that has pornography in it.
