On the official website of the anime adaptation of the manga written and illustrated by Synecdoche“Plus Size Elf (Elf-san wa Yaserarenai)”, it was revealed that the series There will be multiple versions that will vary the level of censorship of what is shown on the screen.and which correspond to the following classification:

• The “Normal version”which will begin broadcasting on next July 6th (the official release date).
• The “Potepote Version“, which will begin airing on AT-X in next July 8th.
• The “Potepote Wick Version”which will begin broadcasting on next July 19th on the AnimeFesta streaming service.

The website isn't clear in explaining what each version consists of, and “Potepote (ぽてぽて)” is a word for “fat,” so it also leaves a lot to interpretation. However, reviewing the original material we can notice that there are a large number of nude scenes and photos focusing on the girls' crotches. The uncensored version likely shows all of these animated panels, while the general public version omits them.
