*HistoricalHeroUpgrade: The show cuts much of Sisi's poor parenting decisions and painted her in a more sympathetic light in general. She fought for the right to decide on her children's lives, but abandoned her responsibilities to Rudolf as soon as his education ended. She worked herself up into a paranoia that everyone else in her family was out to harm her and her daughter Valerie (she suspected Rudolf of this, particularly). While her decision to turn Rudolf down in the German version can be looked at sympathetically as her being too fed up with the court to try and intervene again rather than actively malicious or callous toward her son's suffering, the Japanese version dials up the upgrade further by having Sisi being visibly disappointed that Rudolf is begging her help on a political matter and very reasonably/well-meaningly telling him that he is grown and should handle his own affairs. That being said, there is no indication (publicly or in Rudolf's personal writings) that such a meeting ("Wenn ich dein Spiegel wär") ever happened in real life.

* HistoricalVillainUpgrade: Just like many other dramatizations of Elisabeth's life, Sophie is portrayed as a scheming, malicious witch who will stop at nothing to subjugate her son and daughter-in-law to her will. Franz initially thinks she's a ReasonableAuthorityFigure, but wound up [[CallingTheOldManOut Calling The Old Woman Out]].

* HistoricalHeroUpgrade: The show removes most of Rudolf's more unsavory character traits, such as being a drug addicted philanderer who infected his wife with syphilis and coerced a naive 17 year old girl into a murder/suicide pact.
