A lot of people seem to think the manga was far better than the anime.
It is mostly due to the side story becoming the first episode of the anime. Can't blame them since starting with Cid's monologues would have bored people out.
If there was one thing the anime failed to do, it was about showing Cid's pre-reincarnation self where he was described as a hunk.
Some people complain about the anime being cringe and turning into a generic harem. However, Cid IS a chuuni. The entire novel revolves around Cid being the cringiest yet coolest character. Romance? Nah we all in for the comedy and action. They just don't get the whole point of the anime. It is not "Reincarnated as an assassin". It is Eminence in Shadow. It isn't supposed to be a serious plot.
If you think the anime is cringe, it means the anime did a good job.
Edit: I forgot to mention but I too am salty about Shadow Garden's masks missing in the anime.
