| I've watched a lot more anime than I've read manga at this point, but I do like reading manga of series I'm legitimately interested in. This is mainly because most anime cut at least something or another from their content, whereas manga is the full, unabridged story. In addition, the manga tends to be less censored, and you'll see more of what was intended instead of black bars, or toned down blood, etc. To quote the above, Manga is superior. There are even some anime that cut entire arcs of content (looking at you Berserk & Promised Neverland), so usually if I end up really liking an anime I'll go out of my way to add the manga to my list. Because I know if the anime is good the manga is probably better. |

| Although it lacks animation, color, and music; the manga often covers more of the story than the anime adaptation. Furthermore, reading manga is faster than watching anime. Most importantly, no fillers. :) |
I love bread |
| It's more efficient and expansive in terms of the scope, plus there's little to no censorship. |
 |
| I mean everyone has their own preferences, no? I think we who preorize reading mangas over watching animes can enjoy a much wider variety of series. And we can consume different series more quickly too: For example, I prefer read through 1000 + chapters of OP or Hajime no Ippo than slog through the anime. Besides that the art material tend to be awesome. |
| I personally like anime more but I can see why ppl would like manga more its faster to consume the story and if you dont have alot of time that helps alot Plus sometimes the anime censors stuff and manga doesn't do that |
 |
| I stick to whatever the source material is-- which tends to be the manga, most of the time. That way I can enjoy the media the way the author intended it to be enjoyed. Manga rarely is adapted properly, anyway. |
| Different strokes. I don't typically choose to read manga either, unless I want to finish an anime and the ending hasn't been adapted yet. I don't mind reading the manga, but I prefer the whole animated, colored, voice acted experience. |
  |
| I prefer being able to set my own pace when interacting with media. Long drawn out fight scenes tend to bore me when animated most of the time, whereas being able to focus on what's specifically eye-catching in a action sequence done page by page is more so to my taste. I also just find a lot of live action/animated media doesn't really fully utilize being an audio/visual medium? If I'm expected to spend x amount of time taking in a story, I kind of want that specific investment to be worth it? If the sound design is lackluster, or if there's nothing being in motion brings to a scene that's kind of a waste. There's also more freedom of imagination when you're reading something too which has appeal for me personally. |
| why not ? xD Idk at least manga originals or manga adaptations aren't always ruined like anime or so i think . And the manga world is bigger specially if u consider Manhuas and manhwas out there. |

| Anime is just too time consuming unlike the manga it depends on how fast you read or on how much dialogue there is. but most of the time I don't wanna be disappointed. It might be just me but the color scheme on most anime is just bad and there are some better without color It also provides more and better content like the promise neverland and tokyo ghoul unlike in the anime |
| I think it is a matter of pacing for me. If an anime is really slow (ex. MHA) and boring due to poor pacing, reading the manga usually fixes it as I can read as fast as I can and gloss over the painfully boring background scenes. |
 |
| I'll probably just end up repeating previously mentioned points, but anyway: -Takes less mental focus (no sound, no color, the images don't "move", the images are few). -You can go at your own pace, and it's easier to pause (if you pause in the middle of an anime episode and go do something else it can get a little awkward). -Generally has higher quality artwork than anime, since they don't have to draw everything over and over to the same extent. -When an anime is based on a manga, the manga generally has slightly more fleshed out story since in anime adaptations some things get cut out, and it's also the 'original' so that can be considered a plus if you care about it. |

| I prefer to read comics because I can read at my own pace. I can't get used to the discrepancy between the voice of the character I imagined in the manga and the voice actor who performs in the anime |
        |
| For me its the fact that the manga usually has more to it. I also would rather read at my own pacing than the pace of the anime. Sometimes my ears don't like the voices either and that makes me not want to watch something that might be really good. |
| Because it's faster and better, and more importantly faster |
IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED ODDTAXI OR SAIKI K I'LL BONK YOU IN THE HEAD |
| I just like reading way more than watching stuff, also with most anime, you watch the season but if you want to know more you need to read the manga because god know when the next season will be out. |
 |
| Some people dont have the time to endure an anime's pacing. We are fast readers |
| Its about Drive. Its about Power. |
Her are some reasons:

| Mostly because I find it less time consuming than watching anime. I usually only read shorter manga that are around 20-50 Chapters though. If it drags on too long, I don't want to find out I have wasted my time for nothing worthwhile. |
| There’s 2 main reasons why I prefer manga than anime, 1. detailed info, 2. convenience. Most anime adaptations nowadays often omit arcs that are sometimes essential for the buildup of the story, I’d rather consume the whole story than watch a minced animated version that some studios do to save budget or even twist the whole damn story for whatever fucking reason. Plus, its easier to read anywhere. |

| The manga or LN usually just does series better tbh. Most anime are just advertisements for the manga and LN as well. You should try it, reading is much more fulfilling activity imo than watching. |
