I agree the opinion that the anime is more representative than the manga
in general.
But I think there is a great difference between the anime and the original
only for that episode.

In the anime, when Oberstein gave the information about the atrocious
plan for nuclear boumb attack, Reinhardt refused Oberstein’s proposal
(and Oberstein proceeded in secret under pretence of his mistake). But
in the original novel, Reingardt refused the cruel proposal once, however,
he ORDERD to let the attack pass at last. I can not understand why
the staff made such radical change in the anime. The argument
between Reinhardt and Kircheis does not mean anything if Reinhardt
does not have any guilty conscience about that he leave the attack ON
PURPOSE. And it is natural for Kircheis to get angry(but his expression
in the manga is overemphasis).
I rather suppose the manga represents the original as to that episode.

It is true that Ms. Michihara sometimes changes or modifies the stories,
but it does not mean that she does not understand the characters and
why the things happened, I think.

Thanks.
