Mostly, yes. The Gate anime does follow the novel to a large extent. The main storyline about the gate opening to a fantasy world and the military's actions in that world are similar. However, like many adaptations, there are some minor differences in pacing and character development. For example, some side stories or details in the novel might be condensed or omitted in the anime for the sake of fitting within the time constraints of the episodes. But overall, fans of the novel will find the anime to be a fairly faithful adaptation.
Yes, it does. The basic plot of the anime is in line with the novel.
It follows to a considerable extent. But there are still some differences to make it more suitable for the anime format.
Yes, to some extent. The game is inspired by the lore and general plotlines from the associated novels. However, it also makes its own deviations to create a more engaging and interactive gameplay experience.
The Baldurs Gate game doesn't strictly adhere to the novel. It incorporates its own twists and turns to make the game more engaging and suitable for the interactive medium. However, fans of the novel can still recognize certain themes and elements.
The Kabaneri anime does follow the novel to a large extent. The basic premise, which involves the existence of the Kabane (the zombie - like creatures) and the fight of the Kabaneri (humans with special powers) against them, is the same as in the novel. But, in the anime, there are some additional action scenes and visual effects that are not as elaborately described in the novel. This is to enhance the viewing experience of the audience.
Somewhat. It captures the main ideas but not all details.
It follows to a considerable extent. There are some differences, but they don't significantly impact the main plot and character development.
The Gate anime does cover the novels to a large extent. It takes the main plot elements from the novels, such as the opening of the gate to a fantasy world and the military's response. But there are some minor sub - plots and character developments in the novels that might not be fully explored in the anime due to time constraints or other reasons. Overall, if you've read the novels, you'll find the anime quite familiar, but it also has its own take on the story in some parts.
Steins; Gate 0 anime doesn't ruin the original visual novel. It continues the story in a meaningful way. The themes and ideas from the visual novel are carried over and developed further. It has its own narrative arc that, while different from the visual novel, still fits within the overall Steins; Gate universe and enriches it.
In my opinion, it doesn't. The anime manages to bring the story of the visual novel to a wider audience. While some details might be lost in the adaptation process, it still conveys the main plot, the emotional depth of the characters, and the mind - boggling time - travel mechanics. It has its own charm and is a great entry point for those who might not have the time or inclination to read the visual novel.
