Nope, the best your getting is modding it in yourself

I never understand, which culture is so sensitive that needs to censor artwork? Does NA or SA or Europe have an issue seeing beer bottle or blood?

Simple answer, yes to all of those especially in the US

Mostly NA. YGO from day one was advertised as a kids product. Especially so when 4kids got the rights to the anime.

But, some pieces have managed to slip through. I remember seeing Maiden of the Aqua for the first time. She dodged the reduction censorship for sure.

It's pretty much the US' fault. Yes, they are actually pushing for MORE censorship lately. I have no idea who has such a massive stick up their ass, but corporations and people pushing for all this censorship needs to chill out. Anime is being targeted once again on top of video games, and as someone that plays a lot of adult/NSFW games, there is a crazy amount of restrictions that happen on platforms like patreon.

It's really whoever wants power at the times really.

In the 80's and 90's it was mostly Christian Conservatives. Nowadays, it's more the Progressive folks. (similar arguments for it too which is funny to me)

Really annoying no matter who is doing it.

I still don't understand. US is allow to have guns on the street but beer bottle and blood is no go? Then what about comics like Marvel or DC? Doesn't it also ads to kids and contain all the above? What about artist? Do they have to avoid all the above in their own artwork?

Comics tend to be their own thing with their own ratings system.

The it tends to be up to the parent company on what is allowed.

If you're making something (cartoons, comics, etc) for kids in the US you're not allowed to have guns, beer, or blood, if you're not then you're allowed to have whatever depending on whatever you're marketing it towards. Marvel and DC makes its comics for nobody so the ratings don't really matter for them
