The show is for 12-year-old girls in Japan, but the American production companies obviously didn't agree when they translated it into English. As a result, they cut out or manipulated a lot of the storyline. I personally like the Japanese version better because -- well, the story makes more sense, and . . . well, its also interesting to compare the cultural differences between Japan and the US regarding really touchy social topics. Wanna know just what stuff was cut out?
