Oh yeah, I got the Japanese version of this off Nyaatorrents a couple years ago when it was first put up there. Looks like that torrent still has a few seeders if you guys want to download the full version of ep 1 or the whole series:

It was great to finally see that extended part of the scene with the extra gagged closeups of Zia.
Some of you younger pups may not realize this, but that extra scene baffled and frustrated the crap out of guys like myself, Suicide, and the western DiD community at large for many years before we ever learned the truth of its source. We had these caps of it from that old Japanese site "Gag & Boots," but we had no idea where that scene actually came from. Eventually, dub versions of ep 1 turned up, so we found the first half of it. But the other scene still remained a mystery, and I think most of us naturally assumed it was probably another episode in the series, but of course that turned out to be wrong. I can't recall now who first discovered the true origin of those extra shots, but thanks once again! You solved one of the great mysteries of the DiDiverse!
The great question is, why in hell did they need to edit that out of the English version? Actually, I think it may have been cut from all the foreign dub versions. Not sure on that. All I know is the only one we know for sure has the unedited full scene is the Japanese version. My only thought is maybe it was a time constraint thing where they were trying to keep the episodes under a certain runtime or something. It's certainly one of the more unique DiD scenes in animation history though to be trimmed down like that. I can't think of another one off the top of my head.
People are going to wonder if it has DiD. Chill out. There's a TON of great shows that have been put on here only because there was DiD involved. That's the point of the forum. ^^
