There will ALWAYS be changes necessary when adapting a written work to an visual/audio format, especially when dealing with lengthy materials. Stuff are changed all the time for one reason or another. Like I said, deal with it.

Until they kept bringing the same old tired stuff up again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again...

THAT is why it's obnoxious.

I want to watch a consistent story and setting, as long as it abides to the original theme and mood... now if the anime's production stuff is not up for the challenge (transcending the medium and its requirements), maybe they should have chosen another novel/manga/whatever to adapt.


For me, the bottom-line is that both the anime and the manga do not treat their source with respect

Yet you completely ignore reality. Fact of the matter is, why don't YOU go try to broadcast something OVER THE AIR that depicts (or even imply) TWELVE YEAR OLDS HAVING SEX, and see how far you get.

You can go on and on forever about the consistent story setting to the original material all you want, won't change that big fat Denied stamp on your proposal.

and frankly, the only ones that have been freaking out are the people who kept complaining that they "toned down" the scene, as if that's some major revelation that changed the entire story.

episode 5 has a lot of problems, the least of which is the lack of kiddy sex.

You are however, seemingly ignorant of the reality on the ground. The kind of demands you're making simply isn't reasonable.
