>>132821626I don't know, back in the sticky some novelfags were pissed at Gatoh being Gatoh and turning boys into girls for fanservice, thought Gates was pretentious edginess for 12 year olds, put too much Tessa in places where Tessa didn't need to be, too much melodrama, Chidori prostitute was dumb, removed AIs first display of sentience and kinship with Sousuke. Granted I haven't read the novels but I assumed the anime surpassed them since Gatoh fucking wrote the whole show and had a lot of influence since Takemoto is his best friend. I saw it as an opportunity to improve on what he originally wrote.
