When I was reading Bleach the fighting scenes bored me. I couldn't comprehend all that was going on!
xDD Silly Tamaki.
I kind of wish Eclair could have been in the manga. I love her so much now.
...Well. more like pity her a lot.

ahh. i never got into bleach. but some of the mangas i've read with fighting scenes i really wish i could see on anime. x-x; i always end up reading the not so popular manga that don't ever end up as anime. ;;

Oh, it's definitely the manga for me. Even though I do enjoy the Trigun and Hellsing animes. But it definitely comes down to the manga.

I prefer manga to anime because manga is more original. Most anime is made after the manga and sometimes they change it. I like original things better. They seem to always have a right ending to me. In anime, sometimes, the ending isn't quite right. How do I explain it... Sometimes, some anime shows stop at a cliffhanger ending (If you watch the RAVE and HUNTER X HUNTER, you might understand) while the manga just keeps going. Manga is just better than anime. It has those nice endings.

Most often than not, I prefer anime to manga, especially when there are lots of action scenes coz it's easier to appreciate those in animation rather than in still pictures. I read manga just for more info or to compare the story to the anime. And also to study designs and drawing techniques.

for shounen..i prefer the anime,but only to see the action scenes come to life...for shoujo..i prefer the manga because the anime mushies up the already mushy parts of the manga/anime..it makes some scenes way to long.....i guess i do like manga more than the anime for quality...i just like the anime bcuz its in color and im getting tired of reading manga and all the character's voices sound so close to each other in my head when im reading.

I prefer manga, becaus u usually get more details in the manga, while they shorten the anime. the only thing that is better in anime are fight scenes.

Default I like them both

I first started watch anime such as Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon, Gundam Wing and the like on Toonami and afterward I read Sailor Moon and Gundam Wing, although I think it was Gundam Wing that drew my love for Manga. Then I began looking for Naruto manga on line and I found Naruto Manga returns, one Manga and MANGA FOX!! Which is the best by the way in my opinion. So I dont think it matters to me if I watch the anime or read the manga If I like one and the other is available then I will find and compare them. There are good points and bad points for both manga and anime so I guess I am 50/50.

Lightbulb definitely manga.

I have to say that manga is truly me.

(MANGA is just amazing)

anime usually ruins the story if you ask me. (with the excption of FLCL, it was made better)

but there is an exception.
Gun Grave is my ALL TIME fave anime. but i have not yet been able to find the manga, so if any one knows, help!
