I've read a lot more Manga than I have watched Anime (but I've done a bunch of both), but there are things about each that I like and dislike.For Anime, I don't like how their are lots of filler for some of the more major episodes. Some of the filler is interesting and helps progress characters(Naruto), but most of it is just pointless and wastes time(Bleach anyone). They do battle scenes well, and for mech Animes it is nice to be able to tell the robots apart using colour schemes. I also enjoy a lot of the music used in Openings and as background music.For Manga, I like how the story generally keeps going (after all, these guys have a week or so to write AND draw these things) and how some scenes have more of a sense of mystery surrounding them as it is hard to tell who is involved(whereas you could just listen to the voice actors in Anime).What really pisses me off about both is how some will have almost alternate realities between them. Neon Genesis Evangelion, Bleach, etc. Sometimes, I like the little variations, but sometimes I find it hard to watch an Anime because things will be different from the Manga.What do you guys like or dislike about both?

It varies for me. I hate it when a manga comes out after an anime, and the writer is lazy and decides to shorten/change the story to his liking. *cough* wolf's rain *cough*I do like reading manga's more though because even with pictures, it leaves more to the imagination than what you see in an anime.
cheya brah i like it soo much guys that is whi litds las

manga, to me, is so much better than the anime only when the two are the same. naruto, for example, has way better manga because it doesn't have fillers and it doesn't spend 10 minutes of your time watching two people stare at each other during fights. manga is quicker and more to the point. but some manga that's different from the show itself, like pokemon and i guess yugioh, is all about preference. it just depends on which plotline you like better and that's what you stick to. yugioh, i like the manga better. (not the cards like the anime but more of the shadow games plot). and for pokemon, i like the anime better (probably because it's more popular and i know more about the characters)

Manga in my opinion is generally superior to Anime in the fact that it actually contains many major details that an anime misses. (This is probably because many anime of manga series have to cut a series of content in order to be shown on a television and for the fact that most anime do start before the manga is finished.)I could've sworn I had much more to type out than this but I believe that this generally portrays my point.

How could you ever quote Naruto as being good filler? Naruto was so hideously boring when there's no action going on I just want to kill myself! Not that DBZ/GT is any better... >.>As for the topic at hand... Well since I've never read manga (Right to left reading is not natural I'm sorry.) I can easily say anime is superior.Some of the filler is interesting and helps progress characters(Naruto),

Anime is great b/c you get to sees the action and there is color. You can hear the voices outside your head and the animations look awesome instead of the still pages. However! fillers make me want to hunt down the aholes that come up with them and burn them alive -__- another thing I don't like is how some anime usually cut short just when it starts to get good in the manga(i.e. air gear, eyeshield 21, etc.)Mangas are awesome b/c they are usually the original story and most of the original crap is always good. also...I dont knos I just like mangas
