The film was released in two formats, one an adult audience version and the other for general audiences. The adult version is the same as the general audience cut except for two hardcore "hentai" scenes showing very graphic sex. The general audience version excludes these two sex scenes but still contains all other violence. This version is not "censored" in the sense that both versions were planned by the production team to each be released for two different audiences. This release plan was used in both Japan and America.
