Line 13:
As of August 2005, [http://www.funimation.com/ FUNimation] has begun releasing licensed DVDs of ''[[Kodomo no Omocha]]'' in North America under its abbreviated title, ''[http://www.kodocha.tv/ Kodocha]''. The dub of the first DVD had been censored heavily, but it stopped by the next release. Additionally, the original opening credits from the first season have been replaced with the second season credits because of legal pressures exerted by the recording company behind Tokio, the group who recorded the original [[Anime Theme Song|theme song]], ''7 O'clock News''. A cameo appearance by a member of Tokio in the first episode has actually been [[Bowdlerise|bowdlerized]] in both English and Japanese to keep any mention of the group out of the North American release. Any audio relating to Tokio in the Japanese track is completely muted, including the 'next episode' previews in the first 16 episodes, which have Tokio's ''7 O'clock News'' playing in the background. The second half of the series has yet to be released.
{{tropelist}}
* [[Absurdly Youthful Mother]]: Sana's birth mother, Keiko.
* [[Abusive Parents]]: Volumes two and three of the manga heavily suggest Tsuyoshi's dad is this. It's never brought up again, since he and his family move away from him. The fact his anger over people insulting his mother seems to be linked to this suggests [[Domestic Abuse]] too.
Line 32 ⟶ 31:
* [[Broke Episode]]: Or more accurately, broke filler mini-arc.
* [[But Not Too Foreign]]: Naozumi.
* [[Can't Get Away With Nuthin']]: Mami never forgives Akito after he tries to ''drown her'' for calling him a demon, and when she learns about it Misako explicitly tells him it's his own fault for his abuse of her.
* [[Character Development]]: For a comedy, a pretty good one.
* [[Cherry Blossoms]]
Line 39 ⟶ 38:
* [[Cool Big Sis]]: Natsumi, after the Hayama family's problems are partially resolved by Sana and they start to emotionally heal.
* [[Cool Shades]]: Rei.
* [[Cross
* [[The Danza]]: Zenjiro as Zenjiro.
* [[Death By Childbirth]]: Akito's mother Koharu died right after she gave birth to him. Of course, milked as melodrama for all it's worth, since the badly traumatised Natsumi psychologically abuses her brother and blames him for that for years.
Line 70 ⟶ 69:
* [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy]]: Naozumi; Sana, eventually, at least in regards to {{spoiler|Akito going overseas}}.
** Sana also encouraged Rei to reunite with his old girlfriend Asako.
* [[Laser
* [[Looming Silhouette of Rage]]
* [[Love At First Punch]]: Sana ''very'' harshly calls Akito out on his blackmailing of Mitsuya-sensei and his treatment of Mami. Akito falls in love with her, predictably.
Line 88 ⟶ 87:
* [[No Fourth Wall]]
{{quote| "This is supposed to be a [[Shojo]] anime!"}}
* [[The Nose Bleed]]: Sana's [[Stalker With a Crush]], Ishida (No, [[
* [[Odd Friendship]]: Akito and Tsuyoshi, as well as Akito and Sana.
* [[Orphanage of Love]]: Where Sana and Naozumi were raised.
Line 113 ⟶ 112:
* [[The Sweat Drop]]
* [[Talking Animal]]: Babbit.
* [[Too Long; Didn't Dub]]: In a rather literal application of the trope, Tomomi Ayanohanamarukoji becomes Tomomi Ayano in the English dub. Additionally, many jokes, puns, and songs were re-written to [[Woolseyism|function better]] in English.
* [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]]: Naozumi, who grew up in the same orphanage Sana was once in and has been carrying a torch for her. Though -- as Sana was there for a very brief period of time -- they never met in the orphanage, he was just told that she lived there once and it inspired him to become an actor and someday meet her.
