Well we do have different preferences, But I'm more fond of animu simply because I enjoy it more than manga.

I like anime, visual novels and light novels. Manga isn't really that interesting for me.

titties don't jiggle in manga, son


my reaction:


Manga's jokes a not fun. Anime enhance all emotion thanks to music/motion and make the anime more immersive. Plus there are tons of anime that are not adapted in manga yet (maybe never).
Where is Phantom world? Shirobako ? Konosuba ? Shimoseka ?? Even Code geass's paper version is for fapping toilet purpose.

Plus, you learn some japanese words in anime ^_^

I can use the same logic vice verca, heck there are probably far more mangas that will never get an adaptation than animes. As some of those shows, do you even Light Novels? Overall the title should include LNs & VNs aswell.

well I've read some manga but I think most of them don't deserve an adaptation ,not worth it ... but some adaptation sucks too: I've read Terra Formars really fast because I thought it's adapted anyways ... Now I have to read it again properly -_-

it requires less energy to do, manga you have to click and scroll all the time. for anime you just lean back and relax (unless you are me and skip the parts with side chars you dont like lol). also people like movement/animation.
i didnt read manga until i watched so many animes it was hard to find anything interesting new. now i like both, but still prefer anime, cuz its lazier

Just because there are some bad ones, it does not mean you can generalize and say that the 6k+ ones aren't worthy of an adaptation either. Not to mention lots of great animes comes from an equally great or sometimes even better manga. Besides it seems like you haven't read that many mangas in the first place.

The same reason people prefer movies over books

1 reason is some people don't like to read alot

Another is some don't have the time

Some people probly like to go across different stories rather than focusing on one the entire time, especially those with adhd.

It can require less use of imagination also.

Reading manga and watching anime are two whole different experiences. Some people like the mind set where they part-take in the reading, others first of all might not like reading as much as other people do, second its more easy to understand the character when you're watching what they're doing. Also manga is very expensive, especially when you have to buy book after book to enjoy the series. You can watch anime for free on certain websites which is more inexpensive and more efficient. ((:

Sometimes,i prefer Manga over Anime,like in the case of Rosario to Vampire,in the anime,the story was changed very much,by adding useless ecchi scenes,if they sticked to the manga,that anime could have one of the best anime with vampires,but hey,people don't think to much and also when an anime doesn't have the full story,I become curious and I read the manga.
About why i prefer Anime over Manga,because it sends more emotion than a manga,characters expressions,their emotions are send to us in a way even if they are fictional,they somehow become alive.Also when it comes to fights,in a manga it would seem pretty boring,but in anime it something else,it's more intense.

Truth is in Japan Manga is more popular than anime in fact it's considered normal for adults to read manga but adults watching anime is considered weird.


I don't care what Japan thinks. I hate this whole double standard in the anime community of witch hunting "weeaboos" while at the same time holding japan to some sort of holy standard and saying that everyone should do X because "Japan does X".

I plan on getting into reading manga eventually, but I just like animation in general so anime appeals more to me on the whole.

Oh, sometimes it's like an intense déjà vu, while watching an anime knowing the manga already. But most of the time I am just too lazy to read. Sad but true. Probably because I prefer to know how the characters would sound like. As well as the music.
And last but not least: It (feels like) it's quicker to consume.

in japan, paper for manga is used more than toilet essentials.
I'm a North American (Canadian to be more specific) and none of my friends reads books. Hell, none of my co-workers even reads books. They hate it more than I do. Books are practically non-existent in North America. Why read if you have entertainments like Television? Why read for 2 weeks if you can watch the same material (if said material has a TV/Movie adaptation) for 2 and a half hours or less.

Because anime is in color, voice acting and music. Some people also don't like reading. I assume those people never watch subbed anime though.

It depends on the series for me. I'll give a few examples.

Negima's manga far outshines the anime in every aspect. The characters gain more character even giving the "normal" girl her own defining personality that sets her aside from the rest of the massive main cast of characters. The manga has varied characters where as the anime only focuses on a few of them at a time. Having started and ended before the manga was finished.

Elfen Lied's manga was also vastly superior as it treated nudity, sexuality, and rape with the level of maturity that was needed rather than Studio Arm's horrible take on the series, that ends halfway through the manga.

But on the other hand we have series that were better in their anime format.

Code Geass had a much better anime due to the fact that it was finished and action packed while still bringing up the necessary political overtones about communism.

Kill la Kill had a much better anime for many of the same reasons as Code Geass.

And Higurashi has an anime that's on par with it's manga. They both add new elements to the story.

So it all depends on the series for me.
"Canaan. You're a victim whose past was taken away by war. And she's a defeated person who lost her past in a power struggle. Soldiers who are born within destruction take hatred as their weapon. Even though you and her became soldiers for the same reason, you both live differently. Listen Canaan, you cannot counter hatred with hatred... ever." -Siam, Canaan
