• Merle does not say they should help Nova with Popp answering they should not
• Baran is mentioned by name

• Popp does not comment that his Papnican clothes do not burn from a Medroa while flying
• Popp does not tease Dai more after saying he was monstrous
• Stangul is seen and the port still burning
• Hym does not dodge the first Aura Blade
• Popp's thoughts about Nova having a chance against Hym and his Grand Blade being effective are said outloud
• Popp does not compare Northern Grand Blade to Zap Strash
• Dai does not say to protect the ship as a hero
• Albinass states the name of her Needle Thousand attack, and it's actual effect is shown clearly

• Matoriv does not call Medroa a doube-edged sword
• Medroa is not seen disappearing from the reflected Kacrackle
• Nova's tears are freezing

Trivia

It is assumed in this episode that a Kacrackle would freeze orichalcum, although previously, Borahorn's Glacial Breath of the same strength proved useless against the Dark Armour Blade made of weaker material
