So Serenesforest (and 4chan) looked over comparisons of the JP text with the changed line, and theyre no longer assuming this has to do with censorship. Turns out the most likely scenario is that this is an identical situation to the Evangelion redub: that theyre trying to keep the translated dialogue as close as possible to the original text.

This does not bode well.

Its not closer to the Japanese, its further. The Japanese says he disciplined her around the clock. The new translation just says he tied her to a chair. That could have been five minutes for all we know now. The original was much closer to the meaning of the Japanese.
