@Heavyarms55 The anime adaptation was way too rushed, with the plot having been altered in parts. The prologue, which normally lasts about 2 or 3 hours in the game was crammed into a 23 minute episode, to give an idea of how much flavour was lost.
The remake of that revolutionary game may have its downsides due to some changes, but at least it has a good translation that can almost be on par with the fan-translation from 2011. Also the dating parts of the game really adds to character depth, even the short back and forth teases between the protagonist and the girls.
This remake is a watered down version of the original, and the anime is based on that degraded remake as well. Definitely try the original game, as it's a masterpiece, otherwise get this one if you don't mind changes in quality.
