Points of Interest

• The piece of paper Ace gave Luffy is seen again. Nami sews it into the ribbon of his hat, but in the manga this event happened directly after receiving the paper. He requests Nami sew it into the hat, but in the anime version it's Nami's idea to keep him from ever losing it. This paper wont be seen again until episode 381, where the purpose is finally revealed.
• The events of the Spider Cafe happened much earlier in the continuity of the manga.
