What if they made a second season of Usagi Drop, but they changed it so
that instead of having the same ending as the manga, they changed it so
that Rin and Kouki-kun were the ones that got married sometime after high
school (or they at least implied it) and Daikichi married Nitani-San.
Now, some people would get into a perfect tizzy that the anime had the
audacity to do something different from the manga. Other people (well,
at least this "other person," namely me) would think, "BIG FREAKIN' DEAL,
the anime did something different than the manga."
Perhaps even some people that did not like how the manga ended would
throw a conniption fit over any changes made.
I think those changes can be made for 1 of 3 basic reasons:
First, the head writer for the show is the same as the writer of the
manga, but he (or she) just wanted to tell a slightly (or in this case
radically) different story.
The second reason is pretty much the same as the first, but the head
writer was a different guy than the original mangaka.
The third might be that the studio that produced it might have wanted a
slightly different story for whatever reason.
I personally have not heard any plausible argument why any of these is
some "unforgivable sin," or even "bad."
For example, consider the show Dragonball GT. Did I enjoy it: yes. Is it
as good as Dragonball or Dragonball Z? I don't think so but the fact that
it is not "canon" has nothing to do with that opinion.
I can say the same about other shows such as Sailor Moon Crystal vs. the
original Sailor Moon, or FMA:brotherhood vs. the original FMA. I have no
real opinion on which of those is "better," but which one is more like
the manga would have nothing to do with my assessment.
Even if I were a manga fan, and had read all of these manga, I still
don't think my opinion would change. One is a manga, and the other is an
anime, why on earth do they have to be "the same?"

Also in some shows the scenes omitted from the manga are steamy
or should be. In the manga of of Maison Ikkoku in one chapter the
main couple end up at a Love Hotel where the male is unable to
perform which in my mind brought it to the category of "realistic"
but in the anime this scene at least in the US release is omitted
probably because the show was intended for prime time with
kiddies watching with the rest of the family.
Saves embarrassing queries for the adults by the kids.
