Manga differences

• Matoriv's flashback is cut before mentioning Avan's party
• Does not show it was the Garuda who cast a spell against Killvearn
• Crocodine shouts the name of his Redemption Blast
• All Hadlar's thoughts about Dai's Gigabreak and connection with Baran are said outloud
• Removed narration
• Chiu does not state he did not trust Popp at first
• No inner thoughts of Chiu when berating Popp
• Leona shows the map
• Hyunckel wears his Insignia of Avan
• Marin's panty is not showed and nobody is ogling at her, she is now going on the Balloon Ship instead of doing city repairs on scaffoldings
• No Chiu's condescending thoughts about Popp when he shows up
• Akhim does not speak
• Leona does not explain how it was discovered that the Field of Death was the Dark Army's base (Sovereign Rock Castle footprints and Popp's ambush) or that the Legions were defeated and Mystvearn being their main target. No talk of how to infiltrate them. She does not think of how they managed to turn the Bengarna King.
• Flashback of Dai cuting the castle
• The Bengarna King does not talk about riding a horse and does not speak his name
• Leona has no vision of Dai
• Chiu does not talk about his nose powers
• Zaboera is alongside Hadlar and Mystvearn when going to Vearn but is shunned and listens through the door instead of spying on Vearn from his hideout using a heyedra
• Vearn is seen playing the white bishop he was holding when sarcastically offering Hadlar to try him. Moving the same piece when offering back the Dark Commander position to Hadlar. The manga only shows him playing a white bishop once
• Dai's dialogue to his sword are thought but not said
• Popp locates Dai's surroundings

Trivia

• Like the manga, the magic water's bottle is shaped like a holy water instead of its Dragon Quest IV or its current design.

Error

• In a shot the white queen takes the black king in the middle of the board but a next shot shows it in a corner
