You need to stop putting words in my mouth. Of course the anime doesn't have to be exactly like the novel, but i didn't even mention anything about that, just that they could've handled some scenes better. And yeah, the novel fight wasn't cheesy. It was awe inspiring and thrilling. If i were in charge of directing though, we'd be discussing (arguing...whatever) what should have/could have been rather than what is here, so no. And of course the LN will be better even if it was less cheesy. Never heard the phrase "The book is always better"? It's a given they will be different, but just because it's not as good doesn't mean it can't be close.

Why couldn't he dodge back? The keys were only to the left and right of him.
