   For what it's worth, ADV subtitled it as "Rhett Butler".   
      
   This episode was accurately translated other then a few differences.   
   In the original, it was Sunday, which Rei considered perfect for a   
   date with Mamoru. In the dub, they made it Saturday instead, a   
   reasonable localization.   
      
   Did anyone notice the movie posters behind Rei and Yuuichiro as they   
   were speaking? The one behind Yuuichiro was a head shot of a man and   
   the one behind Rei was a head shot of a woman. The expression of these   
   two characters kept changing during the conversation (the man getting   
   mad as Yuuichiro wimped out, and the woman blanching when Rei kind of   
   waffled). The text on the posters changed as well, chastising   
   Yuuichiro for not speaking up and so forth.   
      
   It's little things like that that delight me so much.   
      
   Of course, the dub completely trashed the whole Gone with the Wind   
   parody (licensing concerns?) *however* they did change one line that   
   made me laugh out loud given that I knew the original reference. As   
   Rei was doing that weird little hand wave as Yuuichiro walked off, in   
   the original she made a direct reference to Gone with the Wind. In the   
   dub, she said "Oh well, tomorrow's another day." Since there are no   
   other GWTW references, it would be lost on the dub only fans, but it   
   certainly made me grin. ^_^
