>90% of time if you read the manga you shouldn't watch anime because manga is a superior way to experience the story, unless you are a super fan and you can't get enough of it.
I largely don’t like watching an anime because it personally feels very long and thedious (idk how to write the word). When I read manga, its as if you could speed through entire episodes of content in one sitting

>>141180yeah that's because they make new anime episode while the manga is still coming out and unless they got filler planned they can't make episodes without manga to adapt, and famous mangakas often go on long breaks so they stretch out the animation for as long as possible. This was going on all the way back in the 70s and is especially jarrying in dragonball where famously one battle can last multiple episodes and goku will scream kamehameha for 30 seconds every single time.
nowdays often they do what netflix does and release one season every 4 years instead.

>>141180Another good thing about manga in general is that there's also the more apparently unique style. Most of the time when a story gets adapted the overall artstyle gets its edges sanded off until it looks generic

>>143634Anime doesnt have endless years to meander like authors living off royalties and has deadlines to meet. If they can take shortcuts they will. No shit a passion project a decade in the making is going to come out better than a project delievered and shipped in less than 2 years.

>>143635No one's arguing for anime to look the same as manga, i'm just pointing out another reason why manga can be more enjoyable to read
