## Production

Each episode is written as a screenplay-like script with basically no full script in mind. While many ideas where and will be put in the series, some are not fit to make it. These can also serve as fun facts.

* *Kasuga Ayumu (Osaka)* from Azumanga Daioh was originally planned to be in the series, but was cut and instead placed in Battlefield Schoolgirls, A Azumanga Daioh Fanfiction also made by Cherry-Chan.
* At one point Dolce was going to have a little inu brother named Pedro but was never put into the series.
* Originally Catampas was going to be named "The Kimono Coast"
* In early drafts of 'Smoke's Night', Smoke was originally going to live in a military base on the outskirts of Osatan.
* Koneko-Chan: Homecoming in early drafts was going to take place in 2019, but was decided that it was too far in the future,
* There was a secret cut to episode 3, but was decided that it was too weird.
