Key differences from light novel
In the light novel,
 * Jibril's made-up speech was brief, and not thirty minutes long. The original speech was simply: "[Naked socialising] originally a ritual from the ancient warring period: by leaving weapons behind and exposing the body, one put all their cards on the table in a display of mutual trust."
 * Jibril's shampoo did not result in bondage.
 * There were no flashbacks between young Chlammy and Fii.
 * The scene where Miko was speaking with Ino and Izuna did not occur.
 * There was a scene where Sora and the others were waiting for the Eastern Union's letter of what the date of the game match was on. The letter was intercepted by an unnamed Imanity and retrieved by Jibril. Sora and the others were shocked to find out that the game match was on that very day, and Steph was constantly worrying over Sora and Shiro's informal attire and whether they were adequately prepared. This was skipped in the anime.
