Considering this anime is meant for kids, they would need to change things like that...
Although, back in the 90s, this might have gone unchanged. There were many adult things present in cartoons that just flew over our heads. Those were crazy times.
Also, need to say this again.
This is. A show. For KIDS. What do you expect?!

We're not talking about sex here, but swimsuits. I hope US kids never go to the pool or the beach, it could be bad for them.
Never had any problem with swimsuits in animes like Pokemon here, I don't understand why this was censored.

Well, it could get boys aroused and girls thinking they need to be that way to arouse the boys, at such a young age too. Even the clip shows that. So it would indirectly imply leading to thoughts like that...
Well, there was that episode that was cut entirely, which besides giving James cleavage, also displayed a lot of girls in swim suits as well as a beauty contest revolving around girls and swimsuits. So there is that.

That episode was aired. And only James inflatable breast scenes were cut. No other swimsuit edits were done to pokemon. Infact. There was a season 1 episode of Lorelie, in pokemon, who had large breasts. And the camera was intentionally above her all the time. Not censored. Aired. And still left alone on DVD sets.
Censoring shows, like this now, is stupid. I've seen more dumb crap though. Beast Wars was censored in reruns. And it's an american show. Yokai Watch airs on Disney XD. I say they forced them. They censored re-airings of Power Rangers. Why they change the guys with cooks. Was the digital paint team too embarased to digitaly touch up muscle guys? THe subliminal message they get now is cute girls want food.

Yeah, I heard it was aired eventually, but was not initially shown in the show's first running, and if I am not mistaken, it also didn't see a VHS or DVD release. Even without the James section of it, it was a little out of place for a kids show.
Censoring things in a situation like this, I can see why it was done.

Beast Wars was censored in reruns? BRUTAL. I loved that show so much. The idea that it was compromised sucks big time. It sucks almost as much as Beast Machines. Almost. Nothing sucks more than Beast Machines. Not even Super AIDS.
