No Pizza Hut!? WHY?!

I thought I would share with the community the answer I received from Bandai. Since some people were wondering as well.


QUESTION:
I've been a really big fan of code geass since it aired in Japan. I just
recently watched the dub on the adult swim website, and no I haven't
e-mailed you to complain about it. I noticed that all the pizza hut ads
were censored out. Will it be like that on the dvds as well or will it
have the original imagery?

Thank you for taking you time in reading this, hope you hear from you
soon.

ANSWER:
Dear Kim,
Unfortunately, the Japanese rights holders did not clear the Pizza Hut logo for outside Japan, however we did try to get permission and Pizza Hut declined to give us permission.
So, unfortunately, we were unable to provide the Pizza Hut logo for broadcast and DVD releases.

Really Pizza Hut! Really?! Baka! How stupid is that. Are you guess doing that much better than Papa Johns & Domino's that you don't need the free publicity.
