It would be the same deal if you read the manga first, then started watching the anime. You wouldnt think the anime was anything great. Nothing wrong with the manga.
I think it's me reading the Hikaru no Go manga. I personally think the manga is a whole lot better than the anime. Better artwork, humor, and more emotional, even though the anime has awsome bgm.
It's just a matter of which u choose to go for, the manga ot anime. It just sucks when u switch in the middle
