Porch Roof Repair

Hello folks- I need some advice on how to repair or replace a front porch roof on a house built in 1893. This roof has a slight pitch, & hips, which direct the water to valleys which terminate at two drains in the front corners. These drains connect to two downspouts. There are no gutters.

This seems a poor design to me. Should I repair it or rebuild it to a conventional design using shingles & gutters? Thanks for any feedback.
