Good news, I found the uncensored version. There are only six episodes so far, but I hope they'll bring in the rest of the episodes. Though, the fifth episode is still censored (to my frustration), but the rest is uncensored. Here's the link:

It wasn't that gory (still bloody, though), and I wonder why they censor even the minor bloody scene. Admittedly, I was a bit disappointed at the creator of this anime and how they enforce censorship (even, though, it's part of 'policy' they put up.). It's stupid. I know the rest of the episode is going to even more bloody and I want to see what they created.

It's simply a method of getting people to buy the DVDs. They do the same to ecchi shows like To Love-Ru or B Gata H Kei, where they even cover up panty shots with big rays of light or a stuck-on stamp or something. That's primarily what their purpose is.

Oh, I see. That makes sense, but they didn't think far ahead, because there will be people trying to find a way to see it uncensored. I remember someone else told me something like that couple years ago, and I've forgotten the reason. Whoops.
They're such a sneaky bastards, not to mention greedy. Then again, i heard the DVD/Blu-ray sales were terrible in their countries so I guess that also make sense.

It is pretty obnoxious, for sure, censoring even the things that don't need censoring for that purpose alone. Frankly even with people trying to find a way to find it uncensored without buying the DVDs, they'd still have to wait. I think the studios think people would just pre-order the DVD in the off-chance that they wouldn't want to wait for an internet copy.
