- NOT your usual shounen anime
- Pure comedy? DEAD WRONG
- Treat Gintama as SoL/weekly sitcom especially earlier seasons
- Ep 1 & 2 are for manga readers
- BIG patience for its 'slow' start

It's the main form of entertainment that I'm willing to invest my time and effort into. Plus there's a backlog of thousands of shows to choose from.

manga doesn't have those ero voices, imagination can get to so far, in my mind all girls sound like hirano aya but the real thing is 10 times better, that's why haruhi anime is better than the LNs and the manga

It's the best source of entertainment in my opinion. It's also my favorite hobby. Or maybe it's more like a life style.

"Why people watch Anime?"

Because people are baaaka...baka, baka, baka.


"reading the sauce"

By that logic to this day art should've been noting but cave paintings, because you only need to know about local gods and some local hunting stories.

First people watch shonen/shojo, then ecchi, then hentai, then manga, then fall into rabbithole to become elitist seinen fans, then they will somehow enlightened enough to appreciate everything. Happy ending.

For some people the animation itself can be a draw compared to the manga since some scenes may be more impactful in motion, or the animation for said series may have many moments of impressive animation that just make it super satisfying to watch compared to the source material. For some people the audio and audio design may also be a draw to an anime over the manga with elements like voice acting and music enhancing certain moments, or in some cases it can be easier to listen to audio compared to reading for some people (for example my gf cannot read at a reasonable pace so she watches the anime dubbed compared to reading the manga or watching subtitled). Theres many different factors to it really.

Watching anime is easier.
Manga usually takes longer time to complete.
A average manga is a good anime usually.

I wonder if low amount of votes discourage people to read manga. If you limit yourself to at least 10 thousand votes(actual votes,not added to list) there isn't too much stuff to read. That's what I remember from when I was mostly reading manga.

Because there are quite a lot of things that still images can't convey.
Especially not in black and white with everything being packed into a small page.
Manhwa format is much superior to printed manga.

Also: reading.

No offense but I find manga or comics to be boring. It’s just black and white still pictures. I just can't appreciate it. I’m glad you enjoy it and I thank you and all the manga readers. Without you guys, there’s no manga and most animes won't exist.

I love manga but hearing the voices of the actors makes a big difference. A good seiyuu can elevate a character from just being good-looking to sexy.

The only source I enjoy more is video game/visual novels. I'll still read the occasional manga, especially if there's no anime adaptation yet and I see it's scored highly or heard about it.

I'm a very visual person and while manga can have some detailed panels, often it gets very cluttered with too much dialogue and black and white makes it seem a little dull to me. Sure manhwa may be a little better, but I also prefer to get a mix of all worlds of visual and auditory. Seeing the scenes animated, hearing voices and music is a more enjoyable experience to me than reading.

I got into manga because I wanted to see more stories about crossdressing and gender-bending. Anime was lacking in that regard. It turns out that a lot of stories featuring crossdressing and gender-bending also happened to be BL.

That's how I became a fujoshi. Read the sauce.

I'm not a visual novel or light novel buff. So manga is my only option. Issue is, like the other two it requires commitment.
Anime to me, doesn't require as much commitment. So there's my pussy ass excuse.
