Anime-Manga: Which One Is Better?

Rurounikeitaro · Post by **Rurounikeitaro** » Thu Dec 09, 2004 8:39 pm

Manga should be considered better since it comes straight from the creator without the worry of studios messing up the drawings"ex: Love Hina" Manga also doesn't contain fillers and cut out stuff like almost every anime has. Plus manga is more convenient, can't watch naruto in your car can you? "Unless you have a portable DVD player with a controller with the lighter power plug in and headphones and Nerovision to change episodes onto DVD format and enough hardrive space to do so......like I do!!

Well, it differs from series to series.

For instance...

Samurai Deeper Kyo: Manga > anime (by far).

FLCL- Anime > manga (by far).

Huh, the Samurai deeper manga isn't that different, but I do like the manga of that better. I've never read the FLCL manga, mainly because it looked like shit so I guess the anime is automatically better for enjoyment but.....I haven't read the manga so I don't know.

Mostly, I prefer mangas. I'm one of those fans of original mangaka work. For example: X-1999
Often, manga and anime begin with exactly the same plot, but they end up in different ways. Even, if the manga hasn't finished yet, I'm sure, it won't have such a... how should I say.. dissapointing ending

.
Another example is Chrno Crusade. Same idea, same plot at the beginning, but the end of the anime is so dissapointing compared to the manga! *-*
So, concerning the storyline, I prefer the manga version, but that doesn't mean that I will do without the anime.

Typically I find that the manga is more coherent and explains the story better than most animes. The only exception I've found to that are the Trigun manga, the FLCL manga, and the Bebop manga. Otherwise, manga > anime.

Well XD concerning the Bebop manga, I can only agree. I've never seen the FLCL anime, but the manga was nevertheless very funny ^_^, so I cannot compare. Have you also token into consideration the Trigun Maximum manga? *-*

I like Anime better, because I don't really like reading.
