> The books, being books, can't be quite so directly translated, but it's close enough that it shouldn't strain any competent scriptwriter. It should be noted that many writers want to make their own mark and don't care too much about the original work and its popularity… which kind of defeats the purpose of "adapting" it. I've heard The Witcher suffers/ed from this (≥S02), as some writers hated the original stuff (in which case, why are you here and/or why were you hired?).
