    Differences between the anime and the manga

    • In the anime, some characters have a different coat color from the manga. The most notorious cases are Riz and Agata, who have a completely different color from the manga.
    • The anime never featured flashbacks about Legoshi's and Jack's childhoods, nor did it reveal anything about Legoshi's family. It only limited itself to saying that Legoshi has a grandfather.
    • In the second season, the order of events has been altered from the manga.
    • The anime included original characters like Carl and Roger, but did not include Mark, Mokichi, and Ai.
