** Upon arriving in the past, Akechi finds himself feet away from Masayoshi Shido and takes the opportunity to punch him in the face, only realizing later that Akira was right there and was supposed to intervene and get framed for assaulting him. He attempts to set things back on course by giving the local cops a description of Akira, but thanks to Judge Kurusu's influence, it doesn't get back to Shido.
** Instead of Kaneshiro being targeted, Akechi instead goes after Akira's mother. [[spoiler:This leads to the domino effect of Akira still being brought to Tokyo anyway despite Akechi's initial plan.]]
** Due to Akechi changing things, [[spoiler:Futaba is now a combat capable member when she joins him by virtue of Futaba confronting the cognitions of her own Palace and her Shadow on her own with Morgana for company, while Akira becomes the Navigator of the Phantom Thieves, this time with the CodeName "Navi".]]

When he disappeared at the end of ''Royal'', it was explained as him returning to the new timeline instead of staying in Maruki's reality.]]

** Akira's life before being framed and sent to Tokyo is greatly expanded on. His father is emotionally abusive and deeply controlling, and he's a bit isolated as a result. His mother walked out on them seven years ago and has no interest in being a part of her son's life ([[spoiler:or so his father claims - he said the opposite to her in order to drive a wedge between the two and keep him under his thumb]]).
** The woman from the assault incident, Megumi Kawaguchi, is given a name and some backstory. She notes that Shido refused to allow her to come to Tokyo to visit him, and that [[spoiler:she is pregnant with his child]].

* DidntThinkThisThrough: Akechi's first action is preventing Akira from being falsely accused by Shido by punching him first. However, Akechi belatedly realize that without Akira, the Phantom Thieves never came to be and the lack of Phantom Thieves means that there won't be anybody strong enough to stop Shido. This forces Akechi had to fix things by bringing Akira and the original Phantom Thieves to get involved in any form and change the hearts of the Palace Owners that they had originally gone after in the original timeline.
