Yukari announces she's the main character on the first page, and when she learns George might be sleeping with her hairdresser, she wonders if this is "really the kind of manga we want this to be?

Technically, all the same things happen: Kaori appears and causes a fight, George decides to go to Paris but leaves the clothes he designed behind as a gift, Yukari becomes a famous model, and she intends to see the Broadway show George designed costumes for on her honeymoon.

Many of the scenes implicitly called into question in the manga are instead played for straightforward melodrama. We see, in full, his scenes of agonizing over his career choice, talking to his father, seeing Kaori off though it also cuts a great deal of clarifying dialogue about Kaori not being interested in him , and crossing paths with a teacher.

But Yukari is almost a non-entity in her own ending. When Yukari says she plans to stay in Japan, the scene closes on George affirming her choice—which, with all of the discussion leading up to it cut, makes his approval seem more important than her realization and decision. No recognition of the fact that Yukari initiated this open and honest conversation, finally taking charge of things and making a decision after feeling led around by George for the entire story.

The anime chooses to erase the tale of a young woman learning to make hard but important decisions for her own good and reduces it to one about tragic lovers torn apart by circumstance and little more. The flashes of her successes since high school are blips we see in passing, without any hint of her work on set or as a businesswoman. The result of these changes is that the anime ends up being about a woman whose entire life has been consumed by a single love affair that lasted less than a year when she was a teenager.

The anime strips it of that nuance, reducing it to the tragedy of a woman who never got over her first boyfriend. The live-action adaptation took it even further, rewriting the ending entirely so that George and Yukari explicitly ended up together. The repeated revisioning and subsequent watering-down of ParaKiss in popular culture embodies a kind of sexism that can be difficult to pin down and discuss compared to things like the issues in popular shounen titles.

It reflects the same dismissiveness as the comparative dearth of josei titles localized in English or adapted into anime.
