Anime/Manga Differences

 * In the anime, Legosi's encounter with Haru is seen as a flashback.
 * A feline student nearly stepping onto a chipmunk student and talking to Legoshi about wearing glasses is in the manga whereas in the anime, he is replaced by Miguno.
 * The flashback of Kibi talking to Mizuchi's boyfriend and another student about Haru only happens in the manga and not in the anime
 * In the manga, the fight between the two students ends with one of them in a headlock. In the anime, one of the two canine students bites the other's arm.
 * In the anime, Legosi is fully seen injuring Haru's arm with his claws whereas it is only briefly seen in the manga.
 * In the anime, after waking up Legosi sees his "inner/shadow self" starring back from a mirror.
 * In the anime, Legosi's struggle with his "inner/shadow self" is more serious and detailed with Legosi envisioning feeling Haru's body all over. Further more, Legosi's struggle with his "inner/shadow self" is longer and akin to the exchanges Lucy Diclonius had with the DNA Voice in the manga/anime series Elfen Lied with the "inner/shadow self" even appearing at Legosi's sides as well as above him from behind and not just his front like in the manga. Legosi's "inner/shadow self" is also more wolf-shaped in the anime then it was in the manga before it fuses into Legosi and takes control of him with the words coming out of Legosi's mouth, which does not happen in the manga as Legosi gave in on his own and the words were only in his mind.
