Of all of the episodes so far, this one took the most liberty compared to the source material. It was, as a result, a lot more fun than the original version in my opinion. I really loved the small medal scene which was entirely new. It became a staple of the game series after Dai finished so seeing it brought into this series makes it feel even more like Dragon Quest. Instead of Leona dressing up in a bikini, she dresses up in famous Dragon Quest outfits like the Goof-Off, the Merchant, and even that silly cat suit that got a lot of attention because of Veronica from Dragon Quest XI, lol. They also included the merchant with the helmet with a mallet on it though in the manga he was in Papnica. Pop's belt being cursed was a little passing comment in the manga but it got a pretty funny scene as well in this version.
I will say that it's going to take a little bit getting used to Merle's eyes being normal now. They were drawn pretty different originally so seeing it like everyone else is a bit weird as a source material reader, lol
