Profile Image
The profile image was changed a while back to, in my opinion, a lower-quality, mostly inferior image. It's grainy, it has a black line on the left side of it that shouldn't be there, it's smaller in size so stretching it out to the 290px profile images are supposed to be at makes it look even grainier, and having half of someone else's body in the picture is just weird, especially when there are other appearances of Chizuru in the anime. Perhaps this is just my opinion.

If it isn't, then there are two options, I suppose:
 * 1) We can revert it back to the former image, which is displayed at the right.
 * 2) We can find a new, more recent image that is completely different from both the original and the current image.

Toughie. As a picture I prefer the bottom one, but I agree that the top is of higher quality, though it doesn't show her full head. Personally, I say find another picture if possible. TomServo101 02:38, September 27, 2009 (UTC)

I'm certainly okay with that. I looked through the episodes page, and I grabbed this image from episode 214, which I figure is the most recent photo of her we'd be able to get. Do we like or should I keep looking? If we like this, I can crop it a bit more so there isn't so much unnecessary background showing above her head. I just noticed that. ^^; Oops.

I decided to go ahead and crop out the excess background, so you'd have a better idea for comparison. Twocents 19:26, September 27, 2009 (UTC)

Looks ok to me. Gets my vote. Looks a little different on this one, to me. Probably evolution of the drawing style. TomServo101 21:44, September 27, 2009 (UTC)

Kaykay. I added it. And yeah, she does look a little different - I think her eyes are a shade or two lighter, and the hair style is slightly different. Twocents 00:18, September 28, 2009 (UTC)

Chizuru's Age
This might be something that was discussed long ago, but is Chizuru actually 15 years old?

The Japanese school year starts near the beginning of April (April 5, I think, but I would have to check my sources). Chizuru's birthday is April 13, so it seems like she should have had her birthday by now, considering how late in the school year it is.

Also of note is the fact that Keigo referred to her as Chizuru-senpai in the anime. I still don't know whether this is in the manga or not, but if it is, that makes it cannon. So Chizuru is older than Keigo, and since her birthday is later in April than Keigo's (Keigo's birthday is on April 1), maybe Keigo turned 15 right before the year started, and Chizuru turned 16 right after the year ended.
