Do just as it says. Vote and post the choice you would have, whether you would rather read the Manga or watch the Anime. I will start by saying that I much prefer the manga books over the anime shows, mainly because the books are usually black and white, and you can pretty much decide which voice would sound best for them.

I prefer anime over manga, I don't have the patience to read large blocks of text that often, even if its in a comic book style format.

I prefer watching anime since reading takes more concentration and brain usage, such as processing, memory, and concentration. lol to be honest though anime has so much filler it's wasting time. but oh well

I like the anime than manga the reason is, because anime has voices/scenes/effects/songs. While manga its basically reading and imagining all of the things you want to imagine like the voices/scenes/effect/ etc.

Well I like both animes and mangas, but I prefer anime more. Only because I've got into animes when I was little and found out about mangas as I got older. Not only that, it's nice to see anime characters come to life with color vs black and white pictures with text.

I like english dubbed anime more than japanese recorded anime or manga. I tried watching Bleach in japanese and it got really annoying. Reading a manga is generally rather tedious.

I'd rather read the manga. It's a lot easier to miss something in Anime than in Manga, and as was stated before, you can use your own imagination for certain points if you read the Manga instead of watch the Anime.

99% of the time, I prefer the manga because usually the anime ruins the story.

For example, the Hellsing anime completely destroyed the original story. The anime made Seras Victoria a complete pansy who never drank blood when in fact she did drink blood and became a full fledged vampire. Not to mention, about a dozen characters were left out of the anime. (e.g. Pip and Rip Van Winkle)

The manga is almost always how the story was meant to be told. Now there are occasions where the anime is the original story (e.g. Blood+ and Wolf's Rain), but most of the time the anime leaves out or changes things about the story and it's really upsetting.

Wow... anime or manga? That's a tough decision. I think it really just comes down to what I'm in the mood for, since I've seen plenty of both.

With manga, like any book, you have a little more freedom in your imagination. You can decide how characters move between panels, what they sound like, what color they are (because everything Japanese is all about color), and what the sound effects are like. Plus, like Chaos said, 99% of the time, the manga is the original work and contains what the author intended for the story.

Anime seems to be the more popular choice because there's a lot that goes into it. It's bright, colorful (most of the time), and voiced. Sometimes, the voices really fit and they enhance the anime. It's much cleaner than manga, too, and there are some things you can do with anime that you can't do in manga (like OPs and EDs).

So yeah, I can't really decide either. I love both of them just as much and one medium doesn't really dominate the other.
