- Canon Foreigner: Eileen Hale, Switchblade, Maelstrom, and Thunder aren’t present in the anime or manga.
- Collective Groan: When Jean makes a sexist comment in one of Sasha's vlogs, no one finds it funny.
- Noodle Incident: In episode 1, Levi refers to a joke that Erwin made that affected Nifa so deeply that she “can’t look [Levi] in the eye.”
