I think it's mainly because the anime deviates pretty hard from source material, which is a 4-panel comic. (they have far less source to work with. The first episode, which corresponds to the first chapter, had to add in the car scene, the first 12 minutes of the episode, etc. Kotoura was also a lot snarkier) Also, I wouldn't say that Kotoura's mind reading is the biggest aspect of the show, especially when the focus has always been trying to make her realize that not everyone will leave her. It's always been labeled as a romanitc comedy, but the anime just added an extra drama tone to it, which as of late, hasn't been working its magic like in the first arc.
