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?!

And what was the target audience in Japan?

Kids wear this type of swimwear all the time though

It's been awhile since I've been on a beach and obsevred what bathing suits kids wear, nor do I think about it. But the target audience watching a show with these kids of images in them is not really good for them at all.

Why? Where is the harm?

Japan is more lenient with this sort of thing though, culturally.

I think it's a little too soon to expose them to these sort of some what mature things, like women and men showing a great amount of skin as well as well... developed figures.

Is it bad that this reminds me when 4kids heavily censored things like One Piece and YuGiOh?

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."
