And by original work I mean the novel. The ecchi parts and over sexualisation of teenagers were definitely not needed (although it is mentioned in the novel they have intercourses but it does serve a purpose when here it is totally unnecessary, if anything it really made me uncomfortable) and the characters are underdeveloped and different. Maria became a non-stop crybaby and Saki is way too bold when her character is supposed to be way more subtle. And the events are so rushed istg. I really disliked reading this. The anime did a far better job.
