MODERATORS
I've never done this before, but I've decided that right now - before the next episode airs - I'm going to read the original LN.
I just can't escape the impression that this adaptation is giving us a poorly condensed version of the real story. It's good all in all and I am enjoying it, but still... it just feels sort of cursory and shallow - as if there's much more to the story and we're only being afforded glimpses of it here and there.
Normally, I'd let it go and plan on maybe reading the LN afterwards. But I just feel like if I did that, I'd end up regretting it - that I'm going to be better off experiencing it the first time exactly the way Akatsuki Kana wrote it.
