Love Hina. I so agree with the people above.
Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne. The animation is horrible, the story is just stupid and I hated it. I love the manga though. 4/10 for the anime. It stinks.

Wait...which manga was better than the anime...um...I dunno...ALL OF THEM????? Come one, animes are never as good as the mangas. At least not in my opinion. The only case was Eureka Seven, but that was ORIGINALLY an anime. I don't think ANY anime is EVER as good as the manga. But that's what I think, anyways...

Planetes.
They are neither plants nor animals.
They differ from other forms of life such as the micro-organisms and the fungi. Instead they resemble the primeval body of life and are generally known as Mushi. Their existence and appearance are unknown to many and only a limited number of humans are aware of them.

Basically everything if the anime has a filler. What I think is Bleach had seasons of fillers and Prince of Tennis...the manga was much better.

I have a problem watching an anime, especially comedies, if I've already read the manga. The jokes might be funny, but they're not funny enough to sit through twice.

Ouran High School is one example. Manga is all right, anime is...exactly the same but with colored roses.
I don't remember if I finished watching Death Note either. I know for sure I watched the last couple episodes since the ending was slightly changed, but I did read the manga first...

I think the Chobits manga is way better than the anime. It's deeper and doesn't drag on the comedy for too long.

There's a lot of manga that are better than the anime but the ones I can think of right now are Vampire Knight and Rosario+Vampire (I pretty much hated both animes).

Magic Knight Rayearth. The story wasn't bad I like it but the art was horrible. Not even comparable to the Manga.

Shaman King. For some reason it just wasn't a good anime. and It wasn't just the dubbing.

One Peice ... ugh

Naruto. Its been said many times. The fillers

Indeed. There was no point IMO doing just the first few volumes when the most significant and interesting events (including the whole awesome character development) were further ahead - I mean like this it just doesn't make much sense. Well, if they decide to continue it and make more seasons I might change my mind) And still, the drawing style in the manga is really unique and the anime with its totally average/regular animation definitely fails to convey it.

Also, Kurozuka. The manga was really good but the anime is something... different... and not in the good way.

I actually think the anime is as good as the manga. They highlight the main points of what the manga covered. It's unfortunate that the anime only lasted two seasons.

Nabari no Ou and Kuroshitsuji. I've heard that they don't follow manga's plot at all and that's why they're ... what they're.

And Fruits Basket. If they can't put all characters in it, why to do it ? And it's just the start; nothing has even started yet ! And the biggest secrets are just coming T.T Well, hopefully they do some kind of re-adoptation~

Most manga is better than the anime. I think it's because its the original? Plus, anime tends to fan service everything up in my opinion.

Well, without any doubts: Berserk. Manga is the best I've ever read (all right, I am not really that much of a adept) and the anime was all right. Without reading the manga it is enjoyable, if you have read the manga it was less interesting, but still decent.

There is a simple reason why almost all manga are better then their anime counterparts. It's because they STARTED that way. The only exemple of an anime that is better them the manga that I can think of is Gurren Laguann, and it did not start as a manga but as an anime.
The real question is: which anime make better justice to it's manga counterpart?

But to answer this thread's question, here are my picks:

Bleach - Shashing for 20 minutes annnnnd... DONE. Now let's repeat this for the next 3 weeks

FMA - A**PULL ENDING! (note: Brotherhood is VERY good in my opinion)

Tsudasa Chronicle - SO BORING! (love the OVAs)

Black Cat - Gonzo, thank for ruining one of the ideas behind Eve's character... and cramming the plot in the wrong way...

a better question is "which anime was better than manga?", cause like 99,9% of animus are by all means worse than manga.
censorship, fillers, crappy designs, messy scripts, gonzo, shitty endings etc. there are millions of ways to create a horrible anime out of any manga, even an awesome one.

Hellsing, most definitely. Some parts in the OVA turned out really well, but the Tv series was crap and in general I think it looks really weird in color :/

Most manga are usually better than the anime plot wise. But when you see shounen jump style manga and anything that goes with alot of action they are more enjoyable to watch then read.But the shoujo/josei type manga with more plot and drama are better for the read

I prefer the Fruits Basket manga to the anime, but I think that's just because I generally prefer manga full stop. The storyline was ok though, just a shame the anime only went up to volume 8...
