Yes, I know that, it's the nightmare of watching audiovisual adaptations of written material.

My point is that when 90% of anime out there is made from light novels/manga, you don't need to watch that much anime to get a grasp on how anime storylines work if you are already adept to reading the source material. Watch a handful of adaptations and you can guess what will be changed on the adaptation of anything else you read safely.
