Manga differences

• Removed Brass narrating Popp's backstory he heard from Avan.
• Since Dai did not fly to Romos on a Chimaera to battle the Fake Heroes, he did not draw a map of Romos and Brass now to tells him to go North. He is not laughing anymore when he tells Mina that they are lost too.
• Removed the vision of Avan when going on the boat.
• Removed Dai telling Maam that she is strong "for a girl".
• Toned down both of Popp's groping of Maam's chest.
• Removed all scenes at Nayle Village, Maam and Mina now opening Dai's bag in the Dark Forest right away. Her line about about Crocodine's War Cry is also cut short.
• Removed the Infanticore's encounter before Crocodine's War Cry scared it away. This introduction being instead put at what would have been Popp's second encounter with it when escaping.
• Crocodine's explanation of the Dark Army's Legions is expended with Hadlar's one which was cut from the previous episode. This explanation removes any mention of a "star of evil" and adds which legion corresponds to which point, the manga only showed the Undead, Furfang and Blizzblaze Legats' set of points with specifying the precise correspondent ones in chapter 73.
• Removed Popp's correct statement that Crocodine is a mandrake major after Dai calls him a Croc Man.
• Removed the monster in a tree
• The infanticore does not cast a sizzle spell anymore.
• Dai's dive kick does not send Crocodine inside the tree he split in two anymore. He also does not drop his axe after being cut by the Wave Slash which was why he had to do a Heat Breath. He does not state that it is a Burning Breath.
• Popp is not ejected against a tree by the Vortex Axe's spell.

Errors

• The subs mistakenly use "Dark Load" instead of "Dark Lord".

Trivia

• This episode gives the colour and position on Vearn's symbol of each Legion, but does not correspond to either how a full colour page of chapter 15 or how the third film The Adventure of Dai - Six Great Generals set of Generals displayed it. The manga gives some position indications in chapters 73 and 138 which are coherent with a roundtable meeting of Commanders in chapters 33-34, although chapter 235 also revealed the soul colour of the Undead Legion Commander to be purple.
