Regional Differences
Title Card
The Japanese opening sequence features a CGI Tamagotchi Planet, rotating quickly as the screen zooms away, and the title appears. Then the cast appears and shouts the show's title, and Kuchipatchi falls and lands on the title and says "dacchi".
However, in the dub, it borrows the opening sequence from a preview of Eiga de Tōjō! Tamagotchi Doki Doki! Uchū no Maigotchi!?; a realistic Tamagotchi Planet, facing away from the screen, zooms in. A satellite flies by, and the screen rotates to reveal an animated version of the Planet appears. The letters of the title fall into place, and the cast appears, doing the same actions from the Japanese opening.
Cuts and Changes
While nearly all of the original scenes and dialogue were kept, a scene of Oyajitchi wandering through Tamagotchi Town while drunk was cut from episode 12.
The original version of episode 10 featured jokes that were focused on Japanese puns that couldn't be directly translated into English.
Violetchi, despite having gone through many name changes in the U.S., retains her original Japanese name Flowertchi in the dub.
In the Japanese version of episode 1, when the flower vase is about to fall, Flowertchi screams "No!", but in the English version, she just screams.
In the Japanese version of episode 12, all of the buildings are male. In the English version, some of the buildings are female.
