Anime Vs. Manga - Page 2

Ok, time for my personal opinion on the subject:

I almost always like the manga better than the anime.
Somtimes things are cut from manga Not just in terms of plot, but also, some things are just too violant or sexual to be aired on TV.

Also the manga usualy was writen first, so its the artists original vision.

Although I dont mind if some things are changed or made diffrent in the anime version. I like seeing new and original material, although I am somtimes disapointed if a scene from the manga, that I liked, is cut out.

the anime because it is moving and in color.

I prefer the animes than mangas, too. I believe it's better with colour and sound. Maybe the animes have less story in them, but they can be more attractive.

Both. Depends if I feel like reading and using my imagination or whether I wanna sit back and watch it all done for me (more or less)

i think it depends on which one we are tlaking aobut... i like naruto and fruits basket as manga better than their anime counter parts but with some i like the animes better it depends on what the story is and how it plays out. In my opinion more comical/ deep stories like naruto or full metal are done better in an anime setting where manga has more drama and romance.. my opinion.

yeah thats true they can get more in depth with the mangas then they can on tv with animes because u never know who's watching thats not suppose 2

I prefer manga. Bleach for example is slightly better than the anime which is also amazing.

It depends on the show for me.

Examples would be InuYasha and Black Cat

InuYasha the show [insert vulgar language], but I think the manga is okay. It's more bearable.

With Black Cat, I can't stand the manga's art style >< But I love the anime, it's one of my favorites for sure.

So it kinda depends...

I keep reading posts with people saying that they need to use there imagination when reading manga. This is somthing I dont understand. Manga isnt suposed to have color, or sound, so why imagine them? Is it really necasary? Unlike novels, the pictures are all there, so there shouldn't be a lot of thinking involved.

I think that the manga is better since you have more to the story and the person who designed it wanted it that way. With the anime you often miss little parts but, for instance, with Sailor Moon you are missin lots of scenes and charaters in the last season (Sailor Moon Sailor Stars) so it's kinda dissapointing. Also with the Anime you are missing lots of explainations. Again, with Sailor Moon the anime doesn't explain who Sailor Cosmos is and you only see her for 30 secs anyways. In the manga you find out way more than you could've guessed on the anime.
