Anime Notes

 * There are extended scenes from the Marineford Arc and Luffy's past.
 * As with all 'Episode of' specials, some scenes are recapped within a few minutes and Non-Canon scenes are added.
 * In the original manga and anime, Luffy learned about the prize of the Corrida Colosseum tournament from one of Doflamingo's thugs. In this special, Luffy saw the prize while watching Doflamingo's broadcast.
 * Aremo Ganmi makes a cameo, with another different appearance. Additionally another woman with a different appearance having red flower in her hair, similar to the character's manga design, is possibly yet another misinterpretation of the character, as she is also shown covering her face but not her eyes.
 * Sabo learns that Lucy was Luffy right after Hajrudin's defeat, while noticing the familiar scar on Luffy's face.
 * Luffy is seen using Geppo during his fight against Don Chinjao, which Luffy has never been seen doing. During his fight with Doflamingo Luffy did show some kind of Geppo in the form of Gear Fourth but it is rather different from the normal Geppo and based on his Devil Fruit form.
 * Scenes from Chapter 786 (Sabo beating up Jesus Burgess when he tries to attack a weakened Luffy following the wearing off of Gear Fourth against Doflamingo), from Chapter 792 where Sabo was shown striking Burgess after the latter ridiculed him over his incapability to save Ace in the war. Also in Chapter 794 (Luffy tearfully hugging Sabo after learning he's still alive) are shown before the events are fully depicted in the anime, although the way Sabo introduces himself to Luffy differs between the anime and the manga.
 * Sabo also mentions his returning memory.
