Anime and Manga Differences
- Jing is calmer and more collected in the anime than he is in the manga. He and Kir also get along a lot better in the anime. In general, the two act more as they do in Twilight Tales than they do in the original manga it is based on.
- In the anime, Mayor Cognac didn't realizes Jing's identity as the King of Bandits until the end of the episode. In the manga, he recognized Jing the moment he set foot in the city.
- In the manga, Jing got the aged dragon to fly by having Kir take the dragon's egg up to Cognac's lighthouse. In the anime, Jing taunted the dragon by saying how Cognac must be eating her egg right now.
- In the anime, Jing got the "Mermaid's Tear" from Cidre at the end of the episode. In the manga, he just stole a number of Cognac's jeweled gold goblets before leaping out of the tower.
- In the manga, Rosé's father was hiding in his bed at night with charms to protect him from ghosts. In the anime he was drained completely of his desire and left a wreck. Because of this he doesn't come out to save his daughter after the Ghost Ship explodes.
- A number of the 'Shots' are re-arranged, and a few are even dropped all together in the anime version. For example, the Masquerade arc ends the anime - while in the manga, it was in the middle of the set - and the entire arc at Fuzzy Navel was dropped. The musical island adventure in turn wasn't in the original manga at all.
- Its also worth noting that in the anime, there is a far greater emphasis on Jing's use of the Kir Royale. In the manga Jing was prone to using it only either to prove a point, or when no other option generally remained; in the anime he uses it almost exclusively.

Famous quotes containing the word differences:
“Toddlerhood resembles adolescence because of the rapidity of physical growth and because of the impulse to break loose of parental boundaries. At both ages, the struggle for independence exists hand in hand with the often hidden wish to be contained and protected while striving to move forward in the world. How parents and toddlers negotiate their differences sets the stage for their ability to remain partners during childhood and through the rebellions of the teenage years.”
—Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)
