Some things of note:
- Koushiro is still Koushiro (one ‘u’ at start, one ‘o’ at end)
- Grades actually got mentioned!
(4th for Koushiro, 6th for Jou, and 2nd for Takeru are all J.P.N. canon)
- Taichi still has “Kamiya” but also “Taichi”
- The “July” reference might be because of an opening dub quote
(“In the middle of July”)
- Lots of dub-esque humor / direct quotes in these too
- A slight preview of “before the camp”, which wasn’t in Ep01
(technically also happens in the J.P.N. novel,
one has to wonder what made them include it here too...)
- even Takeru’s name is here despite T.K.
- “Matt was walking towards them, probably looking for Sora”...
{Dub Foreshadowing}
- “Joe” is still “Joe”, but that’s kind of happened with the J.P.N. too
(“Jo” instead of “Jyou”, etc)
Also, his grade that gets mentioned was actually correct too.
