The latest DLC to Fire Emblem: Awakening, Summer Scramble, has arrived in North America and Europe, but it seems to have a curious omission.Look closely at Tharja and you'll see that her sparkles are gone. Oh, and there's a giant curtain covering her rear.http://images.eurogamer.net/2013/articles/1/5/7/7/3/6/8/13676092534.png/EG11/resize/400x-1/quality/91Original.

This semi-nudity obscuring cloth was not in the original Japanese version according toNeoGAF (via IGN) (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=56645224#post56645224). Amusingly, the curtain mostly just obscures her skivvies leaving her offending bits still as exposed as ever. By mostly obscuring the clothing, the censored picture actually looks more suggestive than before.
