| Has any of you ever read a manga then saw the anime and think "wtf?" because it's so different? It's weird, because even when they share the same name, generally they only have the characters in common.
Just now, I finished reading Mai-Otome. And seriously, the story isn't the same between anime and manga. The manga begins with a guy who becomes the fake queen, but ends up as the king (and super awesome, seriously his character design owns). In the anime, the queen is a real girl, and isn't THE main character (but is one). So yeah, share some anime and manga that are really different. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Oh god yes. This has happened to me a bunch. Though I also find the manga to be better most of the time.
Well, Azumanga Daioh has the same stories... But they aren't in the same order. I actually can't think of any others... Black cat starts completely different.. I haven't read all that much manga *Cries*. |

| Heh, since I'm really bored, my plans for next few days is reading all the manga counterparts of anime I've watched.
I've began Mai-HiME and the story is wtf. wtf. wtf. Originally posted by Kyoku kun That's why I wanted to talk about the differences between the anime and the manga. Because what I said in the first post is more that "anime has some fillers" or "stuff isn't in the same order", it's barely not same story (well, it isn't) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

it's usually different because the MANGA, and the ANIME, are made concurrently. as in, the MANGA's not even done yet, and there's already an ANIME. plus, if everything's the same, then there wouldn't be a reason to have DIRECTOR for the ANIME. so to gain recognition for something they didn't create, or had anything to do, except for being assigned the job as a DIRECTOR by the ANIME company, the DIRECTOR chooses to go a different direction. but most of the time, it's because the MANGA's creator isnt done w/ the MANGA yet, and the ANIME'S already caught up, so they have to make up BS stuff  |

| Yeah, that's the principle behind fillers (a good exemple of (bad) fillers: Naruto. Fillers for months and months is a bad idea) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| I just realized, looking over my manga shelves, that my books don't have corresponding anime. Movies, yes (Battle Royale, Lady Snow Blood, Crouching Tiger, etc), but nothing that became an anime series.
I have noticed differences in those based on movies, though, as well as other manga that I've read that do become anime (though I don't have any on hand). I had figured the reasons were much like what Avatar detailed. I'll have to go over my stuff and compare them all. Right now, the only one that comes to mind is how the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon manga (put out originally by Comics One), is very different from the movie it's based on because it's a prequel, so it takes its own turns and goes where it wants. |

| Here's a good example of anime series that did that... Escaflowne
If you look at it. The characters in the manga don't even look the same. The anime doesn't even cross over with it. |

Originally posted by Lil Miss MRE Which is fun, since you read something, then watch something with the same name and you're even more surprised by the plot. (as I'm continuing my quest, I'm reading Full Metal Alchemist, which is getting more different from the anime) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Love Hina is a good example of this.
The DVD gets kinda mixed up, and both share different study stories between the Manga and the Anime. Also, the Akira manga is seriously different than the movie from what I have heard and read, I may have only read the first two manga's, but I could tell that the Manga was different. I think they do this because it adds more of a view for people who see both. But thats just me. Alot of the mainstream mangas, like Tokyo Mew Mew, One Piece, etc, are somewhat different from what I have seen |

| Trigun really comes to mind.
There is sooo much in the manga that could've been adapted to anime. I really wanna see a new Trigun anime since the manga rocked so hard. |

Originally posted by Thor Yeah, I've been meaning to read it since forever. I mean the anime doesn't even end, at all. Its just like a random episode that builds up to so much and it just ... stops. |

| There's several other anime I've seen that just STOP and don't continue like the manga.
Examples: Get Backers Flame of Recca Hunter X Hunter Prince of Tennis E's otherwise Tenjou Tenge Spiral Those are the ones that just popped in my head. |

| You know, it's just more than reading manga or watching anime. It's the one that goes first the first time you see it. I can see that Dragonball Z may be the best anime than the manga. Or Naruto is the best Manga than the anime.
I like most mangas than animes because I'm a reader. |

| One thing I've noticed is how completely different Ragnarok (manga) and Ragnarok: The Animation are. I mean, damn; same exact world, different times, different characters, different plots. It's kinda weird that they didn't use secondary titles for the anime and the manga. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Even watching Boys over Flowers have major differences than the Manga. The Animé never covers Miss Teen Japan or Tsukasa goes to NYC with his sister Tsubaki. I think Volume 8 on the Animé version went straight to Canada after Tsukasa's feelings were hurt badly after the part when they all play basketball. That Animé covers Volume 8 and Volume 13 took place on the manga series while they cut volumes 9 through 12. (Last edited by insectduel on 07-13-07 04:52 PM) |
