You know, this anime wasn't that popular until 6th episode. No one tried to translate interviews from magazines. But some japanese fans on their forums talk about how someone from the stuff said that Reki wasn't supposed to be the lead in the first draft of the script. And then I started to look at this anime with a new eyes. Did you see a girl at the end of 1st (or 2nd?) episode? Who is she? Why the red-head lady in the OP? Why Langa was in the extreme need of the money in the first episode but never ever bothered by it again? All of it would make sense if you take into account the fact that the script has been changed.
Remember, it still all goes back to the production crew because basically everything has been set in stone, and there's nothing else to judge but what we have through the many shows.
Hope this clarifies your reply.
It's a sequel that shouldn't have happened if that's how they were going to make it.
They only adapted the LN to a certain degree that feels like it came from the LN, then added some fillers and the such. Those arcs are: Epiosdes 1-4 with the start of Orphen, and the Uoar Class arc in the last few episodes.
While this reboot sticks more closer to the LN IMO, the way that the 1998 version did was better. Both versions have fillers, but the 98' version made it look like it was canon to the filler, whereas the reboot didn't feel like anything and it was all just for show.
So,
1998 version: Loosely adapted from the LN, fillers actually kept in line with the main series
2020 version: Straight adaptation from the LN, fillers are non-canon with the LN (they squished the arcs content to be as short as possible)
Hope this answers your question.
Also, work on your sentence structure dude, it's really hard to read and understand what you're saying
