I mostly watch the anime first but if I want more depth or
truth to the story than I'll pick manga. It's better than the anime
most of the time .

I pick Manga because reading a Manga book feels more realstic and has more depth than watching the Anime.

While I personally would pick Anime, I can definitely see why the large demographic of people would prefer a actual printed novel rather than an animated show. Since not only does manga have a much more detail story lines, and cuts out these so-called, "fillers", but it also continues past the story where-as the Anime would usually stop.

The only problem I have with a printed version of these cartoons, is that the whole atmosphere the animated version can create through the transitions, and music, alone, just reels in my interest. The music composed for Fairy Tail and One Piece is an outstanding example; Yeah, going with the "mainstream", as people call it.

But of-course I do read manga, just not most of the time!

In short, Anime is my preferred form of entertainment.

This is a very hard decision indeed I like both a lot but my favorite anime stopped keeping up with the manga so weather they stopped or are just dubbing as much as they can I really don't know but at the moment I like manga better since I can keep up with the stories of my favorite anime plus it's in English and I don't have to look at sub-titles all the time which is annoying.

I would rather watch the anime for something over reading a manga. I like reading and all but I would rather see the characters move versus looking at a page with words and panels.

I would have to say that I enjoy manga more than anime.  In most cases of anime being made from manga you end up getting a different version of the story where things are taken out, filler is added in and cases like the original fullmetal alchemist series that followed the story of the manga for all of but 2 episodes before veering off into unknown territory.  Though brotherhood was an amazing, they followed the manga pretty much to a t and it was great to watch.

Oh gosh this is a tough one, I love watching anime because you get a real feel for it and you feel as if you are actually there, but then I also love reading manga because you can let your imagination run wild with thoughts on the surroundings and the smells of the area and the voices of the characters >.<

Ehh, that really depends, but to be completely honest I'm more of a manga fan. I've always enjoyed reading and mango is just my style. I usually think that series are better in manga format than their animuu counterparts either because it has been watered down or just censored more in anime and just yeah. I think that the Crayon Shin Chan anime (talking about the original Japanese version here, not the English dub which is quite different) for example is more friendly than the manga version and not as funny, still really funny, but not in the same way always. Love Hina is also a good example of an anime that is just worse than the manga version. Still though there are lots of times when I think the anime is better than the manga, like Detective Conan and Inu Yasha. Also, usually there are many good manga series that don't have an anime version, like some horror mangas and such. I Am A Hero is a fantastic zombie manga that hasn't been made into anime, but to be fair it would be really freaking scary as an anime, so yeah... I did start watching anime first though, not just because I couldn't read back then, but of course as a kid a cartoon catches your interest more than a comic would and without anime I would never even have started reading manga or had an interest for Japanese culture. But overall I still like manga best, but that's just moi~

Just going to say its easier to get away with reading manga during class sessions then watching anime. When the teacher is just going to restate everything from the readings that week without giving any new information it tends to get boring.

I think manga is better because it has more to it and anime has more filler. But even if I did not like reading I would still prefer manga.

Anime of course. No matter how many filler-haters & nonsensical manga fanatics will try & tell me otherwise, it's the anime that brings the characters to life. We sense their emotions through the sounds of their voices, see their world come to life w/ vibrant colors, & can see their action in a much much clearer way that a manga will never be able to achieve.
