I always give credit for an adaptation on the anime writer rather than the novel writer, as it's the anime writer's job to transition from the written to the visual, and that's a lot harder than people think it is. Plus, the anime writer is allowed to change the material in order to update on the story's flaws and/or cut corners to fit the material within the span of episodes.

For example, while I think Fate/Zero the LN is great, I don't say the same for Fate/Zero the anime, because the transition isn't very good and it seriously needs an editing job. You can definitely see Gen Urobuchi's influence in the anime, but it feels more like someone copypasted his writing, and that's definitely not his fault.
