Well, which is better, Anime or Manga? I personally like the artistic form of the manga, but the animated aspect of Anime. To me, it's a pretty tough choice. Why substitute the artistry for the action.... hmmm... I think I'd have to go with Anime... since it's free on TV and I'm feeling lazy right now.

I perfer both. because manga of course is faster than the usual anime so I can just read ^^. But I like black and white once in a while. And I love anime because I just love seeing the movement and the action unlike manga where it skips ^^

I really couldn't choose between the two. I love both. Anime adds a whole new dimension to the story, with the colors and sounds/music. However, the artwork seems to lose a bit of it's integrity. For that, I look to manga. The detail that the mangakas put into their work is astounding. I love it.

^ I'm with Naomi and voted both. I also want to add that sometimes manga allows you to use your imagination more - like what *you* think they'd sound like, what types of interactions off page you *don't* see, etc...

Yeah, I should have voted for both. I find that manga images do lots better with web graphics - the picture is high quality and the artistry is unrivaled.

i like the anime because it has audio and animation and stuff. but i like the manga, cause sometimes its more updated than the manga, and portable and gives you and extended mind for reading.

I like em both sometimes the story in the anime is different from the manga but it still falls in the same plot line(or is it the other way around?). I like different view on the same thing.

I really wish Anime followed the manga storyline - but then again, some of those storylines are a bit dirty.

I prefer manga. Just because I do. I haven't exactly realized why yet, though.

Manga. I just like reading more first of all.

But anime..just gets bothersome after a while. Constantly playing the same music. It's like, you know a battle is gonna happen or something's going down whenever they play a certain music. =P

And plus they're so overly dramatic {Not that they're not dramatic in manga, but I'd rather read drama than listen to it.}; like when someone is dying, they constantly repeat their name. It's like, get on with it kthx.

I like both. Personally I like to listen and not read but manga`s are interesting. The anime and manga is different not a lot just a little so it`s like they`re own story. Some manga`s have black and white picture`s which I can learn to draw but other`s are just as colorful as the anime

Manga, fo' shizzle. Anime has been so influenced by America now.

There are actually SOME anime that follow the manga's storyline. I've seen a couple, but it's out there. :DD

To answer the question, I actually prefer the anime. Even though I'm limited to what I can imagine, I still know some decent anime that will make me experience tons of emotions, even some that can make me cry. ;__;

I like anime. There's the music and sound effects that you can't get from manga. Some versions of characters also look better-to me-in the animated version. For instance, I love the anime series Trigun. The manga version...not so much. I also like the animated version of Escaflowne more than the manga. With X/1999, I love the music in the animated version. I both the manga and anime version of X/1999.

I like the manga better because it's faster to read than to watch the anime and I get mad if a voice doesn't sound right on the anime. The artwork looks better too.
