  • The taiyaki she eats as she's fighting Sayaka in Episode 5 has been replaced with a similar bear-shaped pastry.
  • The blue popsicle she eats at the end of Episode 7 has been replaced with an orange one.
  • Snacks are sold around theaters which collaborated by Madoka Magica and Yaokin who makes "Umai-Bo", that is original of "Ummai-Bo" which Kyoko has.
• SHAFT redraws a lot of the backgrounds.
