 +
** Akako's rituals from both chapters - the creation of the Kaitou Kid voodoo doll, and the summoning of Lucifer - are combined into one.
 +
** The respective climaxes of both chapters - Kid being trapped in Akako's magic circle while she tries to coerce him into eating an enchanted chocolate, and a demonically-possessed Inspector Nakamori chasing Kid across a tightrope are also combined. As a result, Akako's magic circle is inscribed around the Tokyo Skytree, instead of her mansion's front yard.
 +
*** The special's version of the circle is far larger and much more elaborate, blacking out several city blocks and then re-lighting certain lights to form a massive, red pentagram.
 +
* The manga's events mostly take place in chronological order. In contrast, the special begins with Akako ready to perform her ritual with Kaito's handkerchief, and frames Akako's discovery of Kaito's dual identity as a flashback of events from one month ago. The special also has Akako state that her ritual requires a full moon.
 +
** Unlike the manga, the special establishes that Akako had previously sent her servant to investigate Kid's true identity.
 +
* The anime slightly expands Akako's backstory, with Akako's servant envisioning previous ancestors in the Scarlet Arts line.
 +
* In the manga, the Last Emperor's Gold Seal was contained in the Tokyo Tower. In the special, it is located in the Tokyo Skytree, which did not exist when the original manga story was written.
 +
* In the manga, Kid begins to bleed when Akako stabs at his voodoo doll. This does not occur in the special. Kid's pain is implied to be purely psychological.
 +
* In the special, Akako's servant arrives at the Skytree to comfort her, and apologizes for not telling her about the weather forecast sooner. Akako then remarks on how witches are the natural enemies of magicians, and burns the flower that Kid had given her. None of these scenes are present in the manga.
 +
* In the manga, "The Adult's Charm" ends with Inspector Nakamori still under the influence of the cursed necklace. In the special, he awakens from the spell shortly after Kid leaves the Skytree.
