Anime Notes[]
- The anime adds the following:
- The anime extends the following:
- During the fight on Hachinosu, Wolf wakes up and prepares to engage SWORD before being knocked into the ocean.
- During one of Kuzan's training sessions with Garp, he mentions the Ohara Incident, implying that he had been training with Garp until 22 years ago at most.
- When Garp and Kuzan punch one another, there is a single impact frame that displays the two in their youth. Their poses appear to be a reference to a popular piece of fan art of the characters Cyclops and Ryu from Marvel vs Capcom about to shake hands, by artist yeet_sonny. The animator of the sequence, Mehdi Bengoudifa,[1][2] has reposted a Tweet discussing the potential reference, lending credence to its validity.
