Anime or Manga ?

[Ishimaru Kaito]

(I searched to make sure i didn't copy anther thread, i think i'm all set.)

anyway. I want to know what kind person you are when it comes to anime or manga. I have more manga then i have anime. i like reading manga rather then watching anime for some reason. So i want to know if you like to read manga more then you watch anime or watch anime more then you read manga.

PS tell me why in your post

[Phaded]

I much prefer anime, the only reason i like manga is because usually the original story goes on. Most of the time an anime is cut short or doesn't stick to the true story.

[~NeonFire~]

Neither for me... I watch Pokemon occasionally but that's about it.

[SomaXD]

depends.. i love that manga can be more detailed in the artwork... but i love watching art in motion too.. when theres an awesomely animated anime... then that just makes me happy.. lol XD

that is basically the reason why i choose manga

[Syugo]

Manga or bust. Anime kills me to watch.

[rykomatsu]

both

i'll generally watch an anime or read a manga, then decide from there whether or not to dabble in that particular IP. Most that have both manga/anime have the following media mixes:

Anime
Manga
Drama CD
net radio broadcast
sometimes they'll become light novels (or start from light novels)
music CD
etc etc etc

dog its all about the anime

[Bandersnatch]

I prefer to read manga because I'm tired of seeing great manga butchered in an anime and watching whole seasons of filler after they run out of the source material. I do enjoy the occasional anime when its either completely original or it stays 100% true to the source material, but I have been disappointed by so much.

yeah that is why i think the manga is better because we get all the detail instead of the half cut version of the storyline

[ToonAssassin]

manga for me, but i think that's cause i'm old school and watched Akira when it first came out so that is what i'm more used too, anime is still ok though.

[Shadowfyre]

I like anime myself, though manga is good as well.

[hateradio]

i've never read a manga in my life, well never one completely

i'm deff. more of anine type, i've watched several dozen or so :]

[Behemoko]

Anime.

I only read manga when I want to get ahead of the anime version. (IE. Naruto)

[softtack]

I guess it would be anime for me, because there is less reading involved. It does go a lot slower, which is frustrating at times. The speed of manga is what keeps me reading.

[Ruziko]

I like both. Although I have less manga than I do anime, mainly because it's expensive.

[Falidus]

I read my manga on a daily basis, from a site that I can read the manga online instead of downloaded it. They get new manga that has not been released yet over here. I also go to pay site that has new anime.

If you want to know the manga site, PM me, I will not post the site.

Well, it's not that hard to go on Google and find plenty of sites offering manga either for download or for online reading. 1M is probably the best for online reading, but MT if you can't find it or prefer to download it. That being said, I'd rather grab it from the groups to show my support.

And why do you go to a pay site for anime? That's illegal for both you and them. :suspect:

[MrFenwick]

I can't read. So I choose Anime.

They only post anime that has not been released here in the states. I use the site for *ahem* other reasons...

As for the manga site, it gets updated every saturday/friday for new manga. I go to this site alone for this reason. *grin*

[Idenowhereiam]

hmmz.. interesting poll..

I cant really decide.. the mangas are always the full story, and so I much appreciate that.. But Anime is always the easiest to find and get into.. Plus after reading ahead on my bleach and naruto i really cant wait to watch those episodes i've already read..

So i'm actually really torn with this...
