I haven't started this yet and am about to. For those of you who have read the manga, which one is better? I usually read the manga first then watch the anime, but if the anime is well paced and doesn't discard any content then I'm just gonna go along with it.
The anime is better. It actually fills in some shortcomings of the manga, particularly in the plot development aspect.Originally Posted by Carnage
Peace.
This post answers Carnage's question pretty well, and no I don't mean it's accurate.
The manga is superior because unlike the anime a manga is supposed to be composed of still shots. While the artist's style is rough he has a great sense of motion and the art problems like every character looking quite samey carry over into the anime as well. Also the manga will actually get finished.
When I hyped this series up in the OP I said it would be spoken of like Berserk. I was totally right - the problem is people will talk about this series like they talk about the Berserk anime series, as an entertaining but wonkily paced effort hampered by time and budget constraints with some pretty music that doesn't really make up for it.
Much like Berserk the ultimate option now is to listen to the anime score while you read the manga.
