In _Bladedance of Elementalers_ , there is a scene where Kamito's girlfriends
get jealous and feed him cakes violently. What's surprising is there are 2
versions of this scene:

  1. His girlfriends use sticks to [feed him](https://youtu.be/thgTSmS2tmY?t=583). [![enter image description here](https://i.stack.imgur.com/qDGDb.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/qDGDb.png)

  2. His girlfriends push the plate [against his face](https://youtu.be/nf0CJbxIRN0?t=165). [![enter image description here](https://i.stack.imgur.com/kD9Ys.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/kD9Ys.png)

Why did the studio make two versions of this? It's quite rare that a studio
would bother to do extra work, since one version is enough.

Why did the studio make two versions of this scene?


**This was possibly a scene correction done for the DVD & BD release.**

The scene happened near the end of episode 12, " _Ren Ashbell_ ". Cross-
checking the reviews reveals that the scene with "cake-shoving" was initially
broadcasted on TV, on September 30, 2014.

However, _the scene is actually different from the original source (light
novel) where the girls are forcing Kamito to eat the cake using forks instead
of shoving it_ , and it disappointed some Japanese fans.
