That Shikamaru scene is a gold-standard for how to do things. The whole episode itself, really, sets a bar for how to handle emotional subjects and tense slow-paced moments.

This is where anime really helped me appreciate the manga and now I've gone through it to the end. Really it's magnificent how they elevate everything the manga offers.

I think the most important thing as a manga reader is to not underestimate the anime audience, and to appreciate how much work goes into the most average of anime production. There is always going to be nuance that is lost when adapting a manga. Something I ask myself now whenever I get a little annoyed at something being cut from the anime is if a tone or theme is still able to translate effectively and be understood by the audience, since that's what's most important. This attitude has helped me in judging if an anime adaptation has done justice to the source material, and actually convince friends to read manga. Treating a manga as a more nuanced and detailed version of the story is more effective than just saying it's "better" because it's all subjective to how well the individual responds to the medium

Kyoto Animation's directors (including Takemoto who unfortunately passed away) seem to be very aware of this, all of their adaptations take some liberties with the manga in order to make it work as an anime. It's not just K-ON : Hyouka, Violet Evergarden and Hibike are also great and make the most of their medium by using character acting and experimental visuals when appropriate. Hell, even Musaigen Phantom World is surprisingly good. And more recently, Cloverworks has made an absolute gem out of Bocchi's 4-koma, the care given to the anime adaptation is insane. Comedy manga adaptations are so hit & miss because of the timing, but Bocchi not only nailed that but also went above to give us one of the best anime this year.

I think one of the biggest points he touched on was staying faithful to the source material. A good example of this is Soul Eater. The manga does a much better job of explaining and going more in depth of how soul resonance works, while the adaptation kinda brings it up briefly as something new happens but doesn't really break it down fully. Not to mention a huge moment in the manga- when we get to see Maka's Piano Scythe form- was completely nixed from the ending of the show and changed to something that more fit the narrative of the adaptation. But all of this doesn't change the fact that I've rewatched the anime many a time. So adaptation's can do right by doing their own thing pulled away from the source material- but they need to make sure that the audience is gonna like it just as much as the source material, if not better, so that it doesn't get blown back in their face.

I was constantly starting and stopping watching One Piece mostly because I accidentally fell behind, but when I finally got to watching it weekly all the time, it drove me crazy. The opening took over a minute, and the recaps were about 7 minutes long to top all off One Piece, a single chapter of the anime and sometimes less. By the end of Dressrosa, I was done watching the anime, and I switched over to the manga, and it was like heaven. Now, every week, I'm just hyped for the next chapter. I still occasionally go back to the anime, but I'm still behind on it.

PERFECT Example is OG Rurouni Kenshin when Kenshin says goodby to Kaoru to leave for Kyoto (See Kyoto Arc) where they are surrounded by fireflies. The whole scene is dynamic, emotional, engaging, and I sobbed like a freaking child. Did it follow the manga perfectly? Nooooooooo.

I still think that the format of SpyxFamily works better as a manga, since there are chapters that are too long in the anime when in the manga you can read them in less than 5 minutes. But that's not to say that WIT and CW aren't doing an excellent job with the adaptation, it's just something to do with the pacing that hopefully they'll fix in the next season.

When I played Steins;Gate for the first time, I couldn't help but applaud how ingenious it is that this game gives you a chuunibyou and an unreliable narrator for so much of its playtime. The world was introduced to you by someone who claimed to be an evil scientiest talking into a phone where you couldn't hear the other side of the talk until you realize, that there is actually no voice. Also the whole lecture of Kurisu about realistic ways of time traveling and what the problems are in Rintaros university was great and added a lot to the understanding how time travel later worked. And when the anime was recommended to me as one of the best anime adaptations ever, I can't tell you how frustrated I was that none of this was in the anime. However, I really loved it that all the original voices were still the same. Oh and sometimes I prefer the adaptations like Demon Slayer or Made in Abyss because of their soundtrack.

The thing about anime adapted from light novels, is the story is almost always better than those adapted from manga. Juuni Kokuki is an amazing anime, and it works because there's so much world-building, and character building in the novels. Also when done right, light novel adaptations can be beautiful, precisely because the animators have more freedom to come up with their own designs. They have a "script" but they get to decide how it looks. This means the animators are truly contributing more of their own creativity to the work, than just basically coloring in an existing storyboard from the manga.

And then i read the manga and realized that it was waaaay better and even the fights felt better. Just put sakugas everywhere and take time to show characters and the scenery more at least it'll bring something new.

In the anime its something you may miss because its quick but it somehow feels natural. The VA for Kazuma understood him so well he improved a line that really would be something the character would say in the original work.

The Clover Works has elevated a very niche manga to something with mass appeal using means only really possible in animation, which is really impressive. The wellspring of creativity present in the gags isn't its only strong suit. An often less noticed aspect of the anime adaptation is the way it amplifies the emotional moments, and climactic performances are very moving. Most of all, the adaptation really keeps the spirit of the original work, and you can tell it was made people people who really understand and appreciate the sorce material.

I agree Bocchi was very well done & did massive justice to the manga but I think the Bleach war arc sequel should be accredited as well, they brought it back from the dead with gorgeous animation, added a lot of extra amazing content that adds to the story & cut out things that didn't add to it from the manga, they just did so much for all the old Bleach fans & the heart and soul of the franchise is admirable. I'd be interested in him making a video talking about how much they did to bring it back to glory.

@@neltins5308 i think what gigguk wanted to say from this vid is that even tho mangas being better can be true, it doesnt discount the fact that animation can bring another side to a story that the source material couldnt. This is what is done with bocchi the rock and why alot of people think it has some of the best animation out there. Its not the top of the line fight scenes, or fast moving animation. Its the creativity that cloverworks had to adapt a four panel manga into some of the most interesting and creative pieces of anime in a while

Some animes that come to mind are stuff about topics that u have to hear, like music. Reading thru your lie in april as someone who never did music, many of the scenes didn’t hit as hard compared to the anime. Another example might be shows that have very precise visuals, like a silent voice, looking at manga panels those sign languages rly don’t make a whole lotta sense

Bocchi the Rock is a masterpiece in the art of expressing how Hitori actually feels in an animated form. Also there's the third form of anime, one which the mangaka is so closely involved with the anime production that the anime becomes way better than what the manga can ever hope to be, while without the mangaka's close involvement it might never have reached the height it was aiming for, an example of which would be Made in Abyss S1 and the movies.

It's weird, I am actually a manga reader because it's not just about adaptation, I love seeing the creator's life updates and thoughts. It's often either hilarious or ridiculously relatable. I'm going to miss Kazuki Takahashi's. Edit: Some filler episodes are amazing though. Yu-Gi-Oh didn't have terrible ones, nor did Bleach. Edit 2: Oof, I actually used to dislike the fruits basket anime for that but at the same time when I compare the new one to the old one. They castrated the humor including the visual humor in the new one.

yea, Monogatari is basically unwatchable, too much text on screen, and too little time to read it all. Maybe if it got a dub, but apparently it relies so heavy on puns, you basically need to learn Japanese... Unless you just watch it for the fanservice, and don't actually care for the plot, but pretend to do, because admitting otherwise would be too awkward.

@@layzy24 If you want to empathize with real sounding pain and agony from the characters the japanese dub will break you (if you have mental health problems, be careful). And I will wholeheartedly agree on the take of the anime being better than the manga. I caught up to both two weeks ago and can say the anime adds valuable "filler" and rearranges and corrects the pacing for certain scenes within Season 1 where the manga just _flies_ by. S2 is a complete different experience at the beginning even when compared to the manga because of rearranging. Keep in mind nothing is lost or added to the story in S2, it just starts off better. The OST is done by none other than Kevin Penkin and he created his Magnum Opus right then and there. After S1 you watch Movie 3 (Dawn Of The Deep Soul) and follow up with S2 (Movies 1&2 are recaps of S1 with 5 minutes total of new animation, not worth watching the movies just for that). Also there's an optional OVA episode and an OVA short series that both can be watched after Movie 3 if you need a break from the insanity. Good luck surviving! :)

One thing that a lot of people forget is just how different anime and manga are. And that changing some small things to take advantage of stuff like sound design, animation, music and voice acting. It doesn’t have to be a 1:1 copy. It’s gonna be different because it’s in a different form. Which is totally fine if it’s done well.

I think both mediums are so important! I love anime, and it gets me to commit to manga. Manga is a big investment. Im the kind of person where if i buy 1 book, i plan to buy them all, i dont like incomplete series. Sometimes, you need to get the manga so that there can be an anime. If the source material doesn't sell, you'll never get an anime. And the anime can be so important to keep the series running. More interest means more exposure. I love manga because of its presentation of the story and how it can have so much time to develop characters and story arcs. And i love anime because it can show fights in a cohesive way and make it more intense, along with the creative liberties it can take. Music and good casting can elevate the story so much. Is the manga better? Yes, but the anime can be better, too.
