But even the perception of the student council is vastly different now than near the start of the show. They also went from the flag tank that couldn't hit anything to the massive troll team, with them being involved with taking out both the Maus and the Karl in weird and dangerous ways.
To be fair, with Anchovy, it's because they rolled over the exact section in the manga, but I do agree we are seeing more sides off Maho and Darjeeling (personally, it's the Drama CD Darjeelings that are the most endearing).

I'll also prefer a TV-series, which allows more time for some character development. Further, a TV-series will have less $/minute budgeted. Experience has shown that when that staff has less $/minute, they'll focus on tactics rather than tankobatics, which makes it a much more enjoyable and balanced experience.
