*** Tiedoll was going to be more callous and cold, with him faking to care and mourn his students but really feeling nothing about them. However, as the author thought a character like that wasn't interesting and wanted for Kanda's master to be his exact opposite, he made the General a fatherly, almost clingy character.

*** Alma's rampage was going to be longer, but the editor told Hoshino that the flashback depicting his fall was going too long, so she had to cut it and moved on to the part where he and Kanda fight. Among some of the scenes cut include Marie almost getting killed in the rampage, a depiction of the Asian branch and one scene of Bak in the other side of the lab's gate. Some of these scenes were able to be included in the anime, however.

*** After chapter 186, there were plans for a mission involving the Third Exorcists shortly after their debut (which is hinted in that chapter, where Allen and Lenalee come with the Thirds to the Asian branch in search of Kanda for a mission in Istanbul) which would have fleshed them out. However, the change in magazine after the big hiatus following that chapter made Hoshino cancel that arc and instead mix some of the ideas she had for that plot point with the Alma incident.

Added DiffLines:

*** Following the end of the Noah's Ark battle, Hoshino wanted to depict Allen and Johnny talking about Suman and playing chess as a way to make them bond together. However, as the manga was weekly back then and the pacing was so hectic, she was forced to cut the scene entirely. Noticeably, the anime did include a scene where Johnny thanks Allen for saving Suman after he returns from the mission in Japan.
*** The reconciliation between Lenalee and Komui after they distanced each other following the evolution of her Innocence into Crystal type wasn't originally planned in the Komuvitan D arc, and Hoshino admitted that she even forgot about their strained relationship while making that arc, but the introduction of the ghost of the headquarters gave her the chance to make both siblings reconcile, so she took that chance to solve that plot point.

Added DiffLines:

** The [[AllThereInTheManual fan book Gray Log]] revealed some unused ideas Hoshino planned initially or had to change later in the manga, some which include:
*** While joining the Black Order, the whole "Destroyer of Time" prophecy Hevlaska tells Allen while inspecting him and his synchronization rate with his Innocence wasn't originally planned and was added in the last moment as a way to make Allen's entrance to the Order more impactful. Hevlaska also wasn't originally going to look that eerie and supernatural, but her appearance was changed in order to make the reveal more effective.
*** Allen was going to have an Exorcist enrollment test by having a duel with Kanda, but this was changed to him having his first Exorcist mission with him instead.
*** Tiedoll was going to be more callous and cold, with him faking to care and mourn his students but really feeling nothing about them. However, as the author thought a character like that wasn't interesting and wanted for Kanda's master to be his exact opposite, he made the General a fatherly, almost clingy character.
*** Plans for a storyline concerning Bak's great-grandfather and the gate of the Asian branch were made early on, but as the plotline of Allen recovering his Innocence was taking so much time, Hoshino decided to delay it until finding a better moment for it.
*** Eliade wasn't going to appear again after her destruction, as Hoshino felt that she already had a good conclusion. However, during Krory's fight in the Ark, she changed her mind and decided to draw her again, albeit in a way where her face wasn't revealed as a nod to that original plan.

** The Earl [[spoiler:has horns]]. Doubly so for those who read ''Zone'', the oneshot that provided the inspiration for the entire series. Also that he [[spoiler:is not his true form.]]
** On a meta example, there were fans that guessed that ''Hallow'' would be part of Creator/Funimation's summer simulcast season, despite not releasing the second half of the 2006 series on home video for five years until the legal issues between Funimation and Dentsu were sorted out. Turns out they were right. There were also people thinking that licensing ''Hallow'' for simulcast would lead to Funimation licensing the second half of the 2006 series. On June 30, 2016, the company announced just that; the second half of the 2006 series would eventually be released to home video starting October 10, 2017.

*** Creator/ShizukaIto voices both Lenalee and Lero. It nearly avoids becoming TalkingToHimself when both characters are grouped together in the Noah's Ark arc, as Lenalee and Lero don't interact with each other much.
