Well UBW has the advantage of only adapting one route. Grisaia is going for the grab bag approach. Though in their defense its not like they can make an anime for each route I guess since there are 5 of them. It doesn't really matter how many routes are done, since even 1 route VN adaptions have a bad history. Just look at FSN 2006 or Tsukihime. The problem is that if they do 1 route, its incomplete, and if it does multiple routes, its almost impossible to storyboard. Thus, adapting a VN is rarely turns out well. That's not a VN problem. That's a Studio DEEN problem. It's actually quite easy to figure out where the quality is going to be. There's a handful of studios that create quality works. Then there's everyone else that pumps out garbage.
No, its a VN problem. DEEN isn't the only company that butchers VNs. Tsukihime wasn't a DEEN production, anyway.

JC Staff is well known for their superbly done adaptations after all.

+ Show Spoiler +yes, I am just as surprised. I almost had it pegged as her dying while getting revenge for her friends. Keep in mind though that Sheerel died while Seryu survived as in, night raid lost a member that fight and the Jaegers (she eventually became one) didn't so it's an evening of the score. But that red flag, shit :/ I wish she didn't say she wants to talk to Tatsumi after the battle is over. Chelsea said the same thing, she died the next episode  sigh. I did love how intense the episode was because of the fight between Mine and Seryu. The constant justice will never lose etc... was funny to hear even when she was losing. Mine's pumpkin is a lot more powerful than I thought :O Tatusmi also using his head was good lol. Here's to hoping that Mine doesn't die!

+ Show Spoiler [Ookami] +Ah, that guy -_-; Feel bad for Erika. Put so much time into them only to get them refused by an idiot who's only thought was that Kusakabe shouldn't have been given a cupcake because he's inferior to him. Ironically, it was Kusakabe who manned up and told Kyouya that he doesn't deserve her. If he's supposed to be a wimp among men, then I dunno what that makes Kyouya.
I really hope that Erika dumps his ass next episode and starts dating Kusakabe instead. Chances are that'll happen but she'll still think about Kyouya. Eventually, he'll come around and realize his mistakes and they'll get back together as usual. My hope is that she just sticks with Kusakabe for good and lets Kyouya learn from his mistake so that he doesn't make the same one for the next girl that becomes his girlfriend. That would be a nice ending but ain't gonna happen unfortunately lol.

The Tsukihime manga, while decent, doesn't cover any of the interesting routes.

UBW #5 : The show is slowing a little bit for me. Emiya + Rin relation, so hard to understand. So frustrating lol. At least, the battle resumes before things go any crazier with these two.
Crossange#6 : My sister watched it a little bit with me + brother, as we were folding our clothes together. She was disgusted and was WTF most of the times. She even asked us : «Is that a lesbian show?»
LH : Slow. Not much is happening. And then the ending.
SAO : Whereas LH is MMO explanation focused, SAO is like action with random MMO explanations. Good thing GGO is gone, but the new arc seems slow.

For UBW its pretty simple. Shes a tsundere and hes an idiot (a huge one).

Tsukihime manga is good, but its a near side adaption. Far side are much better.
Oh, and there are 2 Nozaki OVA apparently. Over-Time (Mostly Toku sub group, but pretty good. On UTW level) is doing it

Akame ga Kill + Show Spoiler +I'm afraid that Mine and Lubbock are going to die soon, cause they both just had an episode each where they committed some badass pwnage.
Also, Wave bro will probably die at some point, cause then it will be like they killed Tatsumi, but not really.
