I watched both the subtitled Japanese voiced and English voiced versions of this show. While the essence of the show is still the same. I have to say two huge different experiences.
The first obvious is that the script is actually a little different which leaves alternative empact to the audience, especially on a romance genre. Obviously in most anime the jokes are changed to target toward western audiences but in this case they added subtle ones that make it much more funnier during the awkward and slow moments.. The voice directing and voice actors in the English version went above and beyond and it defininately shows. In the Japanese voice cast there is a lot of silence in places where there could have been more emphasis making the show feel a little slow paced at times and I understand why some people are saying they don't understand why the show was rated so high.
Usually watching two different versions of an anime never really has a dramatic difference but this one definitely did. I would say if you are going to watch this sure be sure to watch the English cast version it is just so much much more colorful and lively.
