If you found a manga/anime series and you wanted to watch/read it. Which would you go for, the manga or the anime. Assuming the anime is a good anime and it follows the manga (no fillers, plot changes, etc.). If both, which first? And why or why not? Please explain.

(Note: Please no 'depends on the series'. I'm saying in general and you wouldn't really know the series that well because you haven't even tried it yet.)

Manga, I don't watch anime Ô_Ö

Manga...I'm too time constrained and I find reading the manga gets me through the story faster cause the anime forces you to listen at their pace...

Anime. I prefer watching to reading; I'm that lazy.

Tree + Taco = Tree taco.

Still read the subs though -_-

Manga, because I find the plot to be more intriguing, and watch anime later to see if they stay true to the source.

See ya!

Both, but i watch the anime first, since its easier.

Manga. I don't watch much anime as it is, and if the anime is based on a manga there's no way I'd watch the anime first.

Hrodulf and Bjornolfr, you will not be forgotten.

Well, that's true, but it's still easier. I don't have go from panel to panel, and page to page, I just sit back and watch as everything happens in motion.

And my most preferred format is dubbed anime, which requires no reading (though due to my impatience, I end up watching more subbed stuff).

Tree + Taco = Tree taco.

Both, manga first. And then the anime if it's good enough to capture my attention.
Though it was the opposite for me in the beginning cause I always watched the anime first(IE: Naruto, Bleach, Full Moon wo Sagashite, Major, Ookiku Furikabutte)

Manga, especially since anime is usually little more than a cheap imitation.

The OP did say that if the anime was just as good as the manga...(ex. Monster)

Just a reminder that this thread should be a discussion on what you would look at first if both were on equal standards and why...not a comparison between them. We already have a thread for that here
