| Hi hi everyone, I was wondering if any of you have read the manga.. I Personally only saw the anime till recently. If you did read the manga.. what did you all think of it compaired to the anime? I'd like to know what everyone thought.. I just started reading it my self and im like.. OMG.. why didnt they continue the series... WAH!... |
| of course the manga! the manga is sooooo much better than the anime ^_____^ and the anime is also alot shorter >.< |
 |
| yea there was alot of things i found interesting that wasnt in the anime either.. i think i went and watched fruits basket like 9 ish times or so.. before i actually thought about reading the manga... waah.. im so lame like that.. I really did like the manga.. i know its wierd after watching the anime so many times it was like i had the voices and such in my head and oh my god i was crying so much at the end... it was really really much better then the anime.. but i still want to buy both... !!! I dont think the anime was bad...i mean when i saw it.. it was so good that i watched it several times.. and when i am done with my other series/projects i'll more then likely watch it again.. :D I liked it alot |
| Without thinking and consedering.. THE MANGA OFCOURSE!! |
| both anime is different...but a very good anime anyway...and it's more funny the manga.....'cause is the original story! |

| manga of course but it's good to see kyou moving on screen ;) |
 |
| Lol... I reckon Kyou being beaten up by Yuki is quite funny haha... The manga tells you more and if you watch only the anime you won't get all the information |
| After I watch the anime, I started reading the manga because the anime only left off at a certain point. (they should have a second season!) The manga is definitely though. There is a lot more plot and character development. It's one my favorite mangas :) |
| Yeah.. Tohru still hasn't chosen someone and there's bascally nothing done about the curse >.< They really SHOULD make a second season |
| I Gotta Say Manga There's More To The Story In The Manga =3 -Spongee xx |
 |
| I'd Prefer The Anime If It Has More Seasons Becoz Its Good To See The Characters Come To Liife On Screen But The Manga Is Definately More Romatic && A Lot More In-depth So I Prefer The Manga ^_^ |

Left me hanging while watching...so i prefer the manga, too!^^ |
 |
| I really was enjoying the manga for a long time, but then it got too romance-based for my taste :( |

| I love the manga. The Fruits Basket manga was the second manga that affected me really deeply. I saw the anime after it and it was disappointing. Even the seiyuus of the most characters weren't fitting to me. And the colors! I do not understand why did Tohru have blue eyes in the anime... or Yukis hair and eyes colors... I love the manga. The anime doesn't reach its level... Doesn't even reach an acceptable level |
 |
| The anime is good, but I like the manga best anyway ;D |
| The manga is of course longer and covers much more content, but for the duration of content that the anime covered, I preferred the anime. I generally prefer anime to manga simply because the anime provides animation and sound which gives overall greater immersion into the series. That being said, I thoroughly enjoyed both the anime and manga. |

| Personally, I prefered the Manga. :) |
| I'd say the Manga. |
   |
| I liked the manga better |
 |
| I like the manga, it's much better then the anime |
| I read the manga first and thought it was amazing me and my sister decided to just buy the anime. What a disappointment. The manga is humongously better! |
 |
| OOOHHHH MY GOD! The manga of course!!! the anime changed all of the dramas and the twists |

| The manga. For sure. The anime was good, but it was much too short and really didn't cover much of the storyline. Oh, and Kyo-Kun is much hotter in the manga. X D |

| I can't pick. I love both. Although the anime changed some parts, the end wasn't that bad as some animes get. |
rheiders said: The anime was great, but the manga was definitely better. I love how dark it gets, and how bittersweet the whole story is. I agree o.o |
 |
| Manga. The anime was very good, though. It just sucked to miss out on all the characters that get introduced in the manga, and the real conclusion of the story. |
| I saw the anime first. But when I read the manga I was disapointed. The manga is a hundred times better than the anime was. They left out the good stuff in the anime. But god do I love the manga. The ending was a good one too. |
      |
| I love the manga. The anime sucks:( |
| Lolz the manga of course, the story after that in the anime is more interesting |
As the autumn leaves fly by...  |
| i just readed the mangaXD |

| I prefer anime :) but manga is really fantastic. I also love opening. |
| I prefer manga, well, maybe that's because I never saw the anime.. And sometimes manga is drawn nicer than the anime. |
| I would go for the manga. I'm still reading it though. Yes the anime is very short so please go make the new series directors of Fruit Baskets and their cast Banzai!! |
| Sig deleted for being too large. |
| The anime is good in it's way because you get to see the characters move and stuff but I liked the manga so much more. it's complete and the story is really well made. I would have liked the anime more if it were more episodes and the final wasn't hanged in a tree (that's how i like to call the unfinished anime) |
  |
| I reckon the Manga. |
| i hv to say the manga is better than the anime. ^^ it'd be great if the anime has a 2nd season. |
     |
| I like the manga better too...because the story countinued in the manga and the anime ended too fast that the story didnt countinued..if there was a second season it would be great!^^ |

| The manga. Deeper storyline, cuter romance, and more characters shown up. The anime was just too short D: they should've made a season 2 for it. >.< |
    |
| Definitely the manga. Normally, I'd prefer anime hands down because I like being to watch something more than just looking at pictures and reading it. The animation of anime allows you to actually see actions being done, allows you to hear what's being said and with the tone intended (because we all know tone affects the meaning of the words you say). But the anime was cut off short, focused more on the friendship between the trio, and was only a tiny portion of the whole thing. If you read the manga, you're able to see the story to the end, follow the characters as they mature and grow, and get closure to the wonderful story that is Fruits Basket. I'd, without a doubt, pick the anime if they'd continued it to the end of the manga, but since they did not the manga is definitely better in my opinion. |
