Differences between Light Novel and Anime

 * 1) Strangely, Sofy is not mentioned mentioned by Sasha regarding her credibility.
 * 2) In the anime, the conversation between Tigre and Regin was cut until the the next episode
 * 3) In the Light Novel/Manga, Liza is seen lying on the saddle instead of sitting on it.
 * 4) In an anime exclusive, Liza's interest towards Tigre nor her prediction about the defeat of both Thenardier and Ganelon were not present in this episode. However, in one anime special, while apologizing to Sasha for driving her off, Liza was curious of the archer while wondering if sending a gift will allow her to know more about Tigre.
