“But manga are always better!”. Sorry, but we dare disagree. Although we’ve got plenty of examples when anime completely ruined the original source (yes, Tokyo Ghoul, we’re looking at you), there are still incredible adaptations that elevate the manga to another level and make them much more enjoyable. So let’s discuss some of such series!
A series about a girl, whose dream is to become a rock musician, is meant to be better when animated, and this is not an issue of the manga. You just can’t hear the music when you’re reading, and this is why the anime is winning.
Hitori is lonely and just wants to make some friends to play with in a band. That’s why meeting an outgoing drummer Nijika Ijichi feels like a dream come true. Now they are going to make you laugh, go “aww” and dance to their incredible music every time you watch an episode.
The Demon Slayer manga was never bad, but fans admit that it’s rather generic. The premise is not new, the characters are interesting, but not special, the ending is rather predictable. BUT! Ufotable did their magic on the series and released an absolutely phenomenal project.
Direction, animation, action, soundtrack, character design — these are the things that make Demon Slayer shine, and fans are absolutely sure: the series was super lucky to get Ufotable, otherwise there were chances of it never being this popular.
Don’t get us wrong, the manga was already incredible, but the anime manages to portray the manga greatness perfectly. It does everything right and stays true to the original source as much as possible.
If you decide to watch the anime instead of reading the manga, you won’t be missing any parts of the story. So it all comes down to a question of how you prefer to experience a series: by reading the manga or watching the anime.
4. K-On!
This one is a bit similar to Bocchi the Rock, since it’s also about a band, and any manga with a premise like that will always lose to the anime adaptation.
On top of that, fans have done research, and it turns out that the anime has almost 85% of added original content. And it’s not a case of boring fillers, this content is actually enjoyable, and it makes the series even better.
You might find this one strange considering all the animation controversy surrounding the series. Jujutsu Kaisen has various cursed techniques, and all of them work differently.
Fans admit that the manga made a lot of them difficult to understand, while the anime adaptation explains everything in detail, and makes the entire thing easier to follow.
Adaptations win sometimes.
