That scene got be annoyed as all hell...

But Komari's break-down was poorly done as well. It is true that in the VN you only get one perspective of the scene, Riki's and in the anime you have a spectator's perspective...HOWEVER you get a much better sense of "WTF is going on? What's wrong? What do I do?" you are genuinely worried for Komari and what happened to her, you yourself suspect that it has something to do with her brother but only until after she shuts-down. Plus the fact that Komari held the kitten's dead body and suddenly dropped it when she fell to her knees had a much bigger impact.

In the anime you get bombarded with flashbacks even before the break-down scene...through all episodes of Komari's route you keep getting hit with flashbacks...hell, even if you are an anime only viewer you already have a pretty good idea of what happened to Komari's brother...something you're never real as sure in the VN until a a bit later.
