Nah it's inspired.

I know this because I read the LN and recently watched the animation in theaters, the plot and characters are highly divergent from the original.

It’s officially an adaptation, Hence the Dragon Ball Evolution comparison, it’s official but very divergent.

This makes sense to me. The characters are different, but the plot is broadly the same with some minor differences, more so than the recent anime film; it was released under the same title in Japan, it was greenlit under the same title as the original but the title later got changed to something else to be more marketable. I don't see why we shouldn't do this. If the exact same movie had been released as All You Need Is Kill in the US, I don't think this would even be a question.
