Every time I see tanuki nutsacks referenced it reminds me of when I was younger and used to joke about the tanuki at the end of the stages in Legend of the Mystical Ninja on SNES having a giant nutsack. I didn’t think that’s what it actually was, just what it looked like. Joke was on me decades later when I learned that that was, in fact, a giant nutsack. Surprised censor-happy Nintendo just left it as-is.

This is a screenshot from Pom Poko (1994) Studio Ghibli. They were cool with this for kids. I think some countries are just less prudish. Personally I let me kids watch it, better than seeing someone getting gutted or shot.
