• In manga, when Yaiba was cornered by a bunch of people, he mentioned that Musashi is his master and made them run away. In anime, young Musashi appeared and introduced himself.
• In manga, Namako-Otoko knew about the year from a wanted poster. In anime, he asked young Musashi.
• In manga, Yaiba met Otsu first, who was also looking for Musashi. Yaiba then search for him while defeating many people. In anime, Otsu is already waiting at his house.
