I like the anime... It has the main point on... Though the extra part was removed like some of the jokes or his origin like his translator thingy... Then theres the OP where mei was there but not chris...
for the last point, chris was never a crew member, but a temporary host (by hiro's standard)
This is EXACTLY her duty to teach rough and rowdy mercenaries how to deal with the nobles. Since mercenaries are mostly from common people and they have no knowledge how to deal with nobles but the nobles may nominate them for jobs and the guild is there to help and support them so that they don't lose their head by insulting some noble.
Reminder the anime and manga are based off a light novel and on average it takes 2 volumes of manga per 1 volume of light novel.
What do you mean there's no Chris?
There's even Chris' uncle right there! 
Chris is in the opening. She appears twice in it, but not in the "crew" shot, as hinted at by albirew.
I think it's because the manga is slow (barely reached vol 7 of light novels), the light novel series has gone to the far ends of volume 15 (for the official translations), that's why we already have enough detail but anime barely tells anything alone.
What do you mean there's no Chris?
50 seconds in there's few quick shots that just spoils everything.
You mean the box?..edit: ok i saw her in the beach scene but... You see the OP we see mei as if she was significant in the story(which she is) but chris was shown like she was less than an extra character than the reception guy or the doctor...What do you mean there's no Chris?
50 seconds in there's few quick shots that just spoils everything.
It's either i have bad eyesight or if she was shown like a quarter of a second cuz i dont see here... But i did see the box where (possible) that she was found... Edit: i think i saw her in the beach scene...
Yeah she is for a quarter second and dimmed as hell, but still she's there. She's not getting cut out.
Catgirl Chris? HENTAI!
Sierra beach arc is vol 3 then the Chris' arc finale is vol 4.
