    i'd say manga and graphic novels. I get bored of anime sometimes. I only watch very short animes (fruits basket is the only anime i've finished XD watching azumanga daioh, tried out 8 episodes of sailor moon and only 1 of FMA and got a bit bored)

    I like good anime movies.

    Anime's definitely more accessible for me. Manga's just a little harder to get thanks to my lack of money and the local library's selection is limited. However, I personally think you need both the anime and the manga to get the full story.

    For example, the Chobits anime is fantastic, but there are some parts of the story that aren't explained. I'm reading through the Chobits manga (just finished book 2), and there are some parts that are in the manga that aren't in the anime, and some parts in the anime that aren't in the manga. Therefore, I think the best way is to read and watch both. ^_^

    Both...like PP said, there are some things explained in Manga that aren't in the anime itself.

    In the case of, say, Sailor Moon, I prefer the anime. The manga was pretty hard for me to follow >.>

    BLASPHEMER! The manga explains a lot of what goes on in the Sailor Moon universe as well as not having those tons of fillers.

    The plot is much more evolved in the manga going deeply into the nature of the universe and about Galaxia herself. Definitely a lot of more information about Zero Star Sagittarius and the Galaxy Cauldron.

    Anime. Especially ones that aren't based off of freaking Shounen manga. I'm biased towards original anime, even if a chunk of my faves are adaptations.

    Graphic novels. Watchmen ftw.

    Of the main two options, I tend to prefer anime.

    Frankly, anime is easier to obtain, since when torrented/Youtubed, it's free. Of course, I've found that manga is usually better. Not to say that it's a foolproof observation.
