Before, I also don't read manga. But I still prefer the anime because it have seiyuu, animation and sounds unlike manga you need to use your imagination. But some of the manga turns to anime are not as is, unlike other anime that whatever is written in manga is translated to anime. For me, I think anime is only teaser in order for the viewer to read the manga.  |

| I like both. Manga has a different 'feel' to it that I enjoy a lot. I also find it to be more convenient than anime. Of course I like to see my fav manga animated too, particularly when it's fight scenes (those can be hard to get a grip on in manga) |

| i have always been a more of a reader than viewer, i do accept that both manga and anime have their merits and demerits, but in my opinion most mangas are done better than their anime(though not always the case i have experienced it many times), but dont get me wrong sometimes the reverse is also true i personally have experience of that. but the decision is in the end all up to you, one suggestion is to experience both little bit and come to conclusion depending on that. as for me manga>anime |
| I definitely prefer manga to anime. Part of that comes down to things like botched anime adaptations with sudden endings and filler, but mostly I just prefer manga as an art form. You can read at whatever pace you want, maybe take your time to look at a particularly important panel, or flick back a few pages to check information. When the pacing is off in anime (a common flaw in adaptations) it really annoys me. Plus I find it much easier to appreciate artwork in manga. I've spent a fair amount of money on physical manga volumes but could never see myself buy an anime DVD. It would just seem like a waste of money to me, not sure why... |
| I can't say that I'd prefer reading manga than watching anime and vice versa. Both are important. But if you say that you have never read manga/books, you should probably try it. |
 |
| No because it's animation vs pages. Yes because there are more mature/dark/psychological manga. Plus there's a good argument of too many anime that were ruined or bad even as a stand alone anime because it was either rushed or did not follow the manga accurately. |
| If the series has good adaptation I would watch anime. If not I'll just read the original source. |
 |
| I was always 100% anime fan and never understood why people read colorless pages with static images. Time passed and now im a huge manga fan and ditched anime a bit (i still watch it but not as much as in the past). The thing is, Manga has plenty of crazy genres and series that sometimes are impossible to animate. Also some anime like to drag for so long with fillers or long talks and with manga it's a faster read so i can finish more series in less amount of time. I started my manga journey with Gantz that i picked up just for fun when i was left with my small kid (he had 4 months back then) so i could not watch tv or move to do something so i decided to grab a manga and check it out. I got so hooked up that after 4 months i bought about 300+ volumes and read manga everyday. Flydaez said: If the series has good adaptation I would watch anime. If not I'll just read the original source. May i ask from what's that signature from? |
| Whichever came first is the one I tend to read or watch first, and it's usually better. There are some exceptions where the anime is equally as good as the manga. There are also some far worse, and a few that are better, or provide a different experience |
| Anime and Manga has different qualities Some parts of manga are better and that goes for anime too (vice versa) Well as for me i think manga is better |
 If Love is blind , what do you call Love at first sight? |
| Yes because it's easier to read a manga than watch an anime. In anime..if you are busy or doing something it will be hard to watch since you might miss something or what the characters are saying. |
