2) Yeah but you get my point. Still a completely naked blue lady with only her legs and barbie-doll anatomy to cover herself. Which apparently is perfectly safe-for-work, not lewd or fanservicey at all. But a panty shot? Dear Lord, think of the children watching the show! 1. Nope, Aura was invented so the characters could pull off over the top fight scenes without dying when the writers don't want them to die. That was Monty's worry, that he wanted the fight scenes to be insane without him having to hold back from the mere fact that "A person would die if this happened to them."

2. America's weird like that, bro. A kid's show or movie can have all the violence it wants, as long as they don't show blood, and a character can basically die (or literally die) as long as it's under certain circumstances, which is easier if they aren't human.

Steven Universe made it pretty clear that Lars sleeps naked, but it's still considered a kids show.
