Why do you spell it "Petit Cossette" everywhere on the site when the source images you use and the (hopefully official) merchandise you're giving away spell it "Petite"? On top of that, "Petite" is the French feminine form--which should be correct unless this "gothic lolita" character is actually a guy.

=/ Because for some reason, the Japanese companies spell it the other way. The merchandise, and the DVD cover, say "Petite," which should be the correct form, but the CD cover says Petit, and so does the logo on the official Japanese webpage http://www.cossette.jp/

So, because the Japanese webpage has it as Petit, that's how it was first entered into the encyclopedia, before it got licensed. We'll have to figure out how to deal with the different spellings...

Edit - Okay, I changed all the names to Petite. Apparently, that's the name that Geneon is using.
