uh...i'm so sorry if someone already did this but i just wanted to ask which do you prefer: the anime/movie or the books. i personally prefer the books cause they give more description and you can read at your own pace...but the anime allows you to hear music...so anyone?

I prefer the books (manga/manwha) over the anime. The books usually come before it, and have more details 'n' such; plus, the art tends to be prettier ^^. And I'm an on-the-go person, so I can take the books with me and read them, whereas I have to be at a computer or television to actually watch the animes. The music is cool, and it's neat to see the characters "come alive," but I still prefer the books.

I prefer books since it tends to have more detail in the story and the art while anime has less detail. Plus, I really like to read rather than to listen.

i prefer books too!!when i read..the words moving me!and in the movie sometimes i dislike the characters' voice! ^_^'

yah, i prefer the books cuz they give you more details... most times in anime they edit stuff out or completely change the storyline from the book (ie: rurouni kenshin).

i like anime more than manga, but i like regular books more than the movies. cuz in the movies they leave out a lot of detail especially if the book is really long...

I totaly love the books more than the movies. And you're right, the books to give more of a description! Books are my favorite things! This summer I'm planning on catching up on some reading! Eh, I believe I've already read about 100 books this year! I'm such a book fanatic! xD

Books are definetly prefered because they are usually unedited and come before the movie, although I think that watching the movie is a totally different experience and shund't realy be compared ^_^'

I'm a bookworm, I'd rather go for the book instead of the movie any day. But sometimes the movies are fun to see the imagination brought to life.

i think the books are always better because they carry out the story better. but, i'm not a big reader so i always end up watching the movie/anime. sometimes, if the movie is good enough, it'll encouarage me to read the book. so sad, i go backwards.

Books because i can use my own mind to picture the characters the way I see them.

In my opinion I think the books are better as you would be able to use your own imagination and it makes you want to read more and wouldn't ruin your eyes like how the computer or TV does :P

yeah books give you more liberty to see the characters and story as you want where as movies the way the charcaters appear and act is set and can't be changed.

the books because i would rather do my own voices in my head. although some anime movies have awesome voice actors.

mangas > anime
novels > movies

I like the books because you get more detail and most arn't edited

I preferred the book...

books seem to get more indepth when it comes to a story and characters so those are always good (like the Harry Potter movies vs the books, books are 10x better, even though the movies were good too)...i never used to think like that when i needed to read books for english ^^; then again, the only good thing we read there was Hamlet...

oh, and i like the manga better than anime usually for the same reasons as above

both

Movie- better understanding of the smaller details

Book- More detal on the bigger issues

Most of the time, I prefer the book because of the story details you don't see in the movies.
However, there are times I prefer the movie for the cool visual effects. Such movies like Lord of the Rings and Star Wars are shows I prefer to watch rather than read if I had to choose one over the other.

movies, because I do not like to read, I prefer to burn books :d
^_^

i'm lazy so i dont like to read. unless for homework or whatever.

so i pick movies!

Movies, because I hate reading. I like visuals rather than trying to picture it in my head.

So far I think the manga is best..their more detail and well done. Anime can generalize and skip things.
