| I've read the first 2 LN volumes and I like the anime, but not more than the LN. The anime has followed the LN closely enough but at least to me they feel kinda different. The anime is trying to make it seem more like a comedy but when I read the LN, I felt that the overall tone was a bit more serious, even after including Rae's teasing. The action and animation have been a bit underwhelming, but I like the colorful art style and the voice acting. I don't find it a great adaption but I've enjoyed it. I'd give what I've read from the LN a 8-8.5 and the anime a 7. |
| The anime is an admittedly middling adaptation but with a ton of passion that shines through despite the lack of polish. It’s not what I would have wanted but I can see people getting behind it despite its flaws and I still think it’s quite enjoyable |
   I'll keep wishing for a world where you can be happy. |
| My opinion is simple. It is a decent adaptation but unless they finish this story arc in anime form, it will be super painful. They could have do it in 12-13 episodes without much cuts. And with current tempo they need like 6-8 epidodes more. Not enough for a full season (going to the next arc will be sort of dumb). |

Outlow said: However, I have noticed that the show is rated quite poorly compared to the manga and especially the light novel. I know LNs tend to be rated a lot higher but still the diff is quite huge. So I was wondering what was the opinion of manga/LN readers about the anime ? Can the difference in reception be explained by the quality of the adaptation maybe, or does it get a lot better later ? Or maybe it's just been subjected to a much wider audience than the one of the manga/the LN ? I read both manga and LN, I think the anime is good in adapting the story but unfortunately the quality is a less than I expected, it seems like they prefer to adapt manga version rather than LN (the original LN not newest ver./Revolution ver.)* where story is made lighter and Rae's character is more comedic. Overall, anime is good, but it seems like second season will be difficult to adapt in future because the story will be heavier and political elements will be stronger than before and of course the LGBT elements will be more prominent, so don't get your hopes up about second season. and about why LN has a much higher rating than anime, I think that's very normal and can be accepted because story in the LN itself has been finished and plots and future stories will be more better than anime. Especially for the plot twist in last volume, I think it was very good and ended perfectly. So if you really like anime, I highly recommend you to read LN or WN version. *Contents of original LN are exactly the same as WN version, only in LN version Inori-sensei added several extra stories, while in Revolution version the story itself is same, it's just not taken from Rae's pov because the original version already has from Rae's side then this one is taken from a side other than Rae like pov from Claire and her friend. ** This the original version LN  |
