Item: My Little Lover ~ Minami kun no koibito
Language: en-US
Type of Problem: Incorrect_content
Extra Details: The Original Name is locked to "南くんの恋人~my little lover", with a fullwidth tilde (~).
As explained at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_punctuation#Wave_dash the correct wavy line character to separate a title from a subtitle is a wave dash (〜), but due to historical problems with text encoding – explained at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tilde#Unicode_and_Shift_JIS_encoding_of_wave_dash – that are now solved, the identical-looking but different in origin fullwidth tilde is often mistakenly used in its place.
The original name should be "南くんの恋人〜my little lover" with a wave dash, as used at https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%8D%97%E3%81%8F%E3%82%93%E3%81%AE%E6%81%8B%E4%BA%BA#%E7%AC%AC4%E4%BD%9C which makes a rule of only allowing the correct wave dash character to be used for this purpose. This is also now the rule on IMDb: https://help.imdb.com/article/contribution/other-submission-guides/japanese-titles/GE6V4GYJT9JD6CMH
Also, as a single-season, 10-episode limited series, the TV Show Type should be Miniseries, but is locked to Scripted.
