What I find interesting about this adaption (no spoilers)

86 also got that treatment, cour 1 adapted Vol 1 and I think cour 2 adapted vol 2-4. 86’s volumes are short they’re barely 60 pages long.

AD’s volumes are like 200 pages long.

12 episodes per volume, damn... and the only Light Novel I read, gets the treatment of 2 episodes per volume (well, that was the reason I started cote but still)

Is this the difference between Kadokawa and Toho?
I heard kadokawa was about to ruin Re:Zero but White Fox saved it. The sad part is most of the good Light Novels for some reason seem to belong to Kadokawa

It's mostly the staff assigned for the project, if they're passionate it ends up being good, if they're passionate and provided with a decent schedule it ends up being very good
Idk how much influence Kadokawa or Toho has with the 'exact way a series is adapted'

As someone mentioned earlier, producers play a part in this. Some producers (ie. Kadokawa) try to cram in many LNs in an anime, leading to content being cut (look no further than this season's Unnamed Memory).

AltN said:

I think producers like Kadokawa and Toho decide how much to cover over how many episodes (i.e 5 volumes in 13 episodes, 2 volumes in 24 episodes), the staff decides how they are gonna adapt (like White Fox decided Pay TV Station so they could make 30 minutes episodes instead of 24 minutes episodes, they also skipped the opening and ending every episode), since most Kadokawa Light Novel based anime seems to be rushed in pacing

after reading the light novel, I think it might be because there were a lot of small incidents that were tight up to the main plot point so much so that they couldn't eliminate anything.

spoiler ahead:

like the part with Jinshi assassination, there were many small cases that preoccupied the main characters, gaining clues from her father and other characters brought out this giant puzzle that started to pieces together at the end. Also, there are more Easter eggs here and there that will impact the story a lot (if there were to green light another season), and they become recurring characters that drive the story. And I really loved the anime since they were faithful to the original LN, and the animation looked so beautiful.

Also I'm interested how this is possible for this anime and not for others.
