Anime vs manga
| The manga is almost always better
| You have to do the same as with films(from books):
First read the manga
Second watch the anime
Third feel bad because the anime skipped the best part, changed the story, have a bad voice acting and so on...
PS: SAO is an exception, it sucked from the beginning
| I think first season of SAO is great. And voice acting surely can't be worse than no voice acting.
| Both, anime has its own charms. Voice actor performance, music and visuals can all add so much more to a piece of work and can occasionally elevate it much more than an original. But yes, sometimes the doesn't do a Manga justice by either cutting out large portions of it, dumbing down the violence or straight up making there own story. Look at UQ Holder for great Manga with a terrible adoption, then look at say, Your Lie In April which was undoubtedly elevated by being animated.
| The anime* their*
| Adaption*
| Fucking mobile
| But yeah, plenty of stories have been ruined by their adaptions, Negima, Akame ga Kill, Yamada and the 7 witches etc. But Your lie in April, a story heavily driven by music was made 10x more amazing with actual music and stunning visuals.
| Nobody reads anymore. If the anime shit then the whole series is a lost cause. Don't bother with manga, you'll just bore yourself with colorless, silent paper. Same goes for light novels. Nothing but lost-in-translation from start to finished.
| The manga was better.
| But that VN tho

I would say manga since anime almost never has the ending
