I dunno, having only read the LN (well I've seen like 3 episodes of the anime but that doesn't really count), she still comes off as really abrasive. I've been told she gets better later, but three volumes in and she still rather annoys me (even though her scenes are entertaining). Granted, I've also heard that the anime makes it much worse, and I sort of agree -_-...

As for a possible reason why the anime is made the way it is, it's a tradeoff between pure comedy and more serious stuff. In the novel they have way more time to develop the characters, whereas in the anime decided to sacrifice a lot of the development in exchange for pure comedy, much of which is often slapstick. That's why every time I watch the anime it just feels so so rushed. If that style's your cup of tea, that's fine, but I prefer the character development.
