Reading allows you to control the rhythm and be the master of the sounds and movements you imagine. You also decide the tone of the scenes, don't have to suffer the lullaby of dialogues dictaded by the director... In itself that control/process/create activity is exhilarating when reading a manga.

Plus reading the manga gives you CONSISTENTLY the most crisp drawings and shots you can imagine. That's like a set picture of you taken by a professional photographer VS inadvertently opening the selfie cam on your phone @3a.m

You'll never see a Konoha on your screen like in the drawings of Naruto first gen

Having access to Akira Toriyama drawing beautiful vehicles and countrysides lowkey should be enough of an argument :troll:

The quality of his selection of action poses also reveals itself all the more in the manga

Meanwhile, by limiting yourself to watching, you're at the mercy of the overworked animators, enduring 50 episodes of:

With sometimes 20 minutes episodes of barely moving lips with faces like this

To finally suffer to the one proverbial episode where a fight deemed most important happens, for which they'll get a great animator. And even then, he'll have to sacrifice details to service the fluidity of animation :dead:

I'm not even going to get into the fillers & long awkward pauses, silences, or fails in rhythm because the director had to make a 20 min episode with 10 min of material :francis:

It's easy to mess up a scene in Anime because of this type of constraints. Bad quality animation, the wrong soundtrack, an awkward slow motion, a weird performance by a voice actor... The thing is in precarious balance.

All of this you don't have to care about when reading :manny: a 100% quality, always, with powerful shots delivering exactly how they should and beautiful illustrations.

Now I fukk with anime ofc, sometimes you find gems and most of the time it's alright... But don't yall come for reading now :ufdup:

Yeah man, some of the chapter/volume art be looking album/mixtape covers :wow:

Seven Deadly Sins is the third most watched show on Netflix :ohhh:

I didn't know people fukked with it like that

Yeah breh, it's better than most give it credit for. It's exactly what it's presented to be & never attempts to leave that lane.

I'm not playing when I'm saying I like how Toriyama has fun with vehicles:

One of the things I like the most is how detailed and rich backgrounds and decors are on paper:

Art is often more visceral, poses, and the black n white as well as the crisp pen help:

Gojo is a fukking problem! :whew:

I need to see Nobara's fight against Eso. Shorty went straight demonic on those brothers :ooh:

Yes Sir, there's a little something in it for almost everyone and strong female leads that manage to strike that perfect balance. Not every woman can have the drip of a Yoruichi but they can try.
