    I prefer to read manga, the original is great, and no filler.

    Manga, because it's the author's true stuff and doesn't really go through as much as the anime goes through. Plus all the bonus stuff in the back.

    Depends really. I read a lot of BL manga since most BL anime suck. Manga in general is closer to the author's true intent thus it is nice to read but I enjoy the anime just as much.

    Generally manga is first and better done, but I will say that if its a faithful translation, anime is awesome.

    I like them both. :P When I was reading the Death Note manga, it went at my own pace. When something really interesting was happening, I read it quickly because I was excited. When watching the anime, it was a lot more dramatic and flashier. So yeah. Both anime and manga.

    Anime, because I don't want to read as much. And even Subbed the ACtion tends to go better. (Mind you, there are definite exceptions).

    I don't see the difference most of the time with this whole "Closer to the Authors intent". For one, look at Naruto. I have both watched the Anime and Read the Manga up to the Time Skip, and aside from filler its the same damn thing.

    Can't vouch for bleach though.

    Exceptions include, of course, Love Hina. Noteabley different the anime and Manga are. Same with D.N.Angel.

    However, different hardley determines what is worse. Its just different. If most people stop comparing it to the MAnga when such things happen, of course they will likely think the Manga is better because the anime changed things they enjoyed. They don't always give it a chance. Not true in all cases of course, but it annoys me when people just pass of anime because of that.

    Roto's reason for being able to go at your own pace, however, is perfectly fine. You can't exactly alter the speed of an anime and get the same effect.

    Bleach is also a really good Anime, really close to Manga.

    But for me its Manga all the way, Anime is ok but i prefer to read than watch sometimes the Anime is so bad[[Love Hina(The Manga Is Amazing ]] that its makes me want to cry!!!

    I meant I couldn't vouch for the differences. I quite love the anime.

    And I like the Love hina anime

    I prefer anime, especially with action series!

    Though there's animes like Fruits Basket that are only a fraction of the story, so I have to read the manga ; ;

    Flame of Recca and Rave Master also do that. At least Flame of Recca anime got halfway, unlike Rave Master that started a new arc and just quit.

    manga have more existential tangents so they get kinda dull after a while.

    unless it's kimagure orange road.
