Brendan Blaber, when he started working on this arc, was trying to keep it a tournament arc like the Anime Campaign episode it is based on, but quickly switched it to be set in a museum. It also included Dan Gansley before he was cut prior to him starting to work on the Episode 4 script. He also explained that it is written "whole cloth" from scratch. Despite this is it still serves the purpose of the AC episode.[Citation Needed] It took three drafts to write.[6]

Instead of it being set in the Sweet Jazz City Museum, it is set in the Regional Below Ceremony, a tournament. As such being a "tournament arc".
Several names are different including: "Gemeni Necklace" instead of "Arsene Amulet" and "Bushido Blasters" instead of "Banzai Blasters",
Molly goes there intentionally to promote the store, instead of a field trip, and accidently becomes a fighter instead of being locked in overnight.
Moxie Roughhouse, Charlotte Scarlet, and Gulie Manning are characters on the first group alongside Sylvie who is twelve and is not there because of the necklace.
Mera is person running the tournament and already has the necklace. She has at least two other epithets including: “Bughouse” and “Eventual”.
