Why was Robotech edited for violence and related?
As it was true that Harmony Gold edited the Japanese footage of its Japanese body language whenever it could, it also edited out extreme violence (which defines as lots of blood or blood coming out of the body like bullet shots) and any kind of nudity and panties. The reason for editing these things is due to the NBC 1980’s TV guidelines and Harmony Gold’s hope to be able to meet most their and other networks’ rules to have Robotech aired as many places as possible. For those who think these deleted scenes were unneeded, in current times, Robotech would have been extremely edited too death. All other edits were due to storyline continuity.
