When I posted that last one, I almost included another bit at the end looking for clarification on whether the problems I saw were in the original or just in the adaptation (or just me jumping to conclusions). But then I looked at what I had already written and decided that if I was wrong, you'd tell me anyway, so I just left it as is. :)

That second link - to Maki's observation that it's obvious that Asanagi doesn't spend all her time playing games but that she does really enjoy them - for whatever reason, I didn't get any hint of that from the adaptation.

I was probably going to end up giving episode 2 a shot anyway, just because of the cliffhanger, but I definitely will now. Hopefully they just tried to cram a bit too much into this first episode and they'll pace things a bit better as it goes along.

And actually, though I've been watching a lot of anime over the last couple of years, overall I tend to prefer manga. I want to give the anime a chance so I'm not going to read the manga yet, but there's a very good chance I will, pretty much regardless of how the anime turns out.
