Thread: which anime is better than the manga ??

?? any suggestions ^^

none. the original is always the best.

still, there are a few animes which come close to their original quality but none of them actually reaches it.

for example: claymore, death note, berserk

the original is allways the best.



the same counts of cause for animes that adapted from games like (and vise versa too)

Higurashi and fate stay night

dont waste your time watching/reading/playing copies, read/watch/play the original

I would condemn you for not using the search button to see if this boring kind of thread already existed, but when I tried myself it was actually quite hard to find.

You should find a bunch of suggestions in there.

Yes, but Ferozban? Sometimes the anime came first.

Ones that did, and where the anime is indeed better, include Strawberry Panic!, Kamichu!, Princess Tutu, Simoun, Melancholy of Sizumi H-whatsherface, Maria-sama ga Miteru, and (arguably) Revolutionary Girl Utena. (For some of those, I note both anime and manga are independent adaptations from light novels.)

One anime that arguably improved on the manga is Ouran High School Host Club, in that it gave the episodes a choherent timeline and emotional arc, for at least as far as the adaptation goes. Contrariwise, one adapted manga that improves on the anime is Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind -- and both were done by the same person. So there isn't a hard and fast rule that the original is always better. It all too often is, though.

fullmetal alchemist, cowboy bebop(not sure which came out first but i remember hating the manga), inuyasha.

claymore anime sucked. It was good until they started straying from the manga. The ending was so bad it ruined the whole series. Berserk anime has nothing on the manga.

Ok the title of this topic does not specifie that only animes copied from mangas are ment (lintu skimped the first post, so you got a point here), but i guess thats what he wanted to ask.

I'd argue against that; yes, the anime put everything into a timeline, but overall, it took away some of what I felt to be the best scenes in the manga. Removing Nekozawa from the beach mini-arc was unforgivable! T_T

Anyway, the Claymore anime was awesome while it stuck to the manga - equally good, I think. So far, I've been thinking the same of Death Note... actually, that one might be just a little better, if only because the music is just so perfect and the manga can't really have music at all.

The Inuyasha anime was good for an anime adaptation, but I don't think it's *as* good as the manga. Close, though. The fillers don't even suck as much as they could have.

For Samurai Champloo and Cowboy Bebop, the anime came first, didn't it? Both totally awesome ones.

Myself, I can't think of an anime that was better than the original manga that I've seen. (I could say Sailor Moon was, but I understand that's a biased opinion that comes from me watching the anime a long time ago.) In fact, I'm more inclined to say there are anime that shouldn't have been created at all, mostly due to the fact that the manga works perfectly in black and white (there are a few that I can think of). Well, anyway...

Hunter X Hunter anime is way way much better than the manga , every thing in the anime is just perfect , the animation , the music, the voices , it follows the manga in every little detail with alittle bit of fillers that were great unlike other animes . the manga was not bad but the art started to go down after 110 chapters nearly .
