Too much changes
That's not an adaptation if you only take the names and change everything elseHow can you justify the title Omniscient Reader if Kim DokJa doesn't get the skill ?
Where are the constellations ? What is the Star Stream for if we don't see their interactions?
Yoo SangAh is supposed to be viewed as the protagonist of a non-fiction novel, and later we discover that she is the most "normal" person (and not referred to as a character), so her quitting her job doesn't fit her personality. Plus, if she's not learning any languages, then she can't have the multilingual skill, which was important in the Disasters arc.
And honestly, does the director really think that swords are too unrealistic when fighting against FANTASY MONSTERS???
How is a bullet more useful when even a blade can slash through an itchyosaur???
And how come every backstory is just pure nonsense now? They don't even make good obstacles to overcome or a good plot twist. It just feels like someone had to add words for an essay and just wrote whatever to match the word count.
There's so much more problem with the storytelling and all the scenes and characters that were deleted, but you should probably just go read the novel or manhwa because it'll be more enjoyable that way than knowing about it through a comment.
