I feel sorry for the 11-year-old girl in the story. Such a sad story.

The trailer looked heartwarming. I'd love to see a release with subs, but knowing how squeamish most are on the subject, I doubt i'll see legally. I really would like to know if its ever said, but how did she get pregnant? I didn't see any young boys, so was it rape?
If I remember correctly, a girl in my friends school got pregnant young. 10 or 11, I can't remember exactly. I don't remember the details of the hows and whys but she did loose the child. It's not that uncommon. I remember the girls in high school always mentioning a girls who were pregnant at 12 or 13, or a boys they knew were fathers at 13,14 etc. I know those ages are a tad older, but does that truly make it any better?

If you're going to say something that outrageous, you ought to have a source to back it up.

Whatever the source, it's not any canonical Christian or Jewish scripture, nor the Qur'an either; even the Talmud, which has nothing good to say about Mary (to put it mildly) doesn't go that far. Extra-Biblical sources put her age at the time of her marriage at 11-14, although her actual betrothal could have taken place some years earlier.

In English or Japanese? I know I've seen some of the volumes for this series at my store, and if they're still there I'm going to be sure to pick them up.

Since this is a movie it is quite possible for the Japanese DVD to include English subs. DVDs from other asian countries like korea also tend to include English subs (of japanese movies).

The plot summary on wikipedia says that it happened as an accident while playing with her childhood friend without really knowing what they did.

so they accidentally had sex I thought it'd be something more practical like a rape, but an accident? I know the first man and woman had to "stumble" upon the method themselves, but I dunno wouldn't they have stopped once it started to hurt, or they saw blood coming out of her? And what kind of childhood friends playing naked games together with their private parts?

They could have accidentally seen something that depicted sex and tried it out, not really knowing what they were doing.
And I personally remember a sort of...show and tell with private parts between me and two of my male friends, though I was even younger at the time. But if they don't really understand sex, they wouldn't really understand why seeing each other naked would be a sensitive thing.

Or another possibility: They were playing with his weewee, then this white stuff came out. Then he or she handled this white stuff and just for fun put it in her gash (she may or may not know about menstruation yet). Weirder things have happened.

This could be interesting, depended on how it's handled. For those who've read the manga, what's the tone like? The artwork looks a little goofy...
