The eternal question. What's older, manga or anime?

Do you prefer reading the, often monochromatic, piece of (electronic) paper, or a brain washing through the wonder of moving pictures?

Do you wish to learn the Japanese language through subbed animes, or give your brain some time to rest while watching dubbed versions?

I would be absolutely delighted to hear you, dears! ^^

I don't watch any of those stuff. Just boring and doesn't make sense.

Manga. Comics came before TV.

I prefer subtitles, not to learn Japanese though. North American voice actors always ruin my image of a character. The only show I think is good with dubbed is Yu-Gi-Oh

And I like Manag better cause it is more often for me, the original work of the author.

I prefer subtitles exactly why Kacboy prefers them. When it comes to watching all foreign language material I prefer subtitles. I think of watching anime in its original language as being better.

I dunno.. Manga and anime are both great. I'm in the middle.

I prefer Manga.

Ad I prefer anime be subbed, because dubbed usually kills the character.

Manga is alright but anime is better. However, dubbed I find better as listening to the original, I find their voices quite weird.

I prefer to have the original voices with subtitltes, because many of the English dubs are horrible.

it depends on what series for me. like i prefer to read rurouni kenshin but when it comes to shows like deathnote id much rather have sub titles in english translating from japanese.

Yeah, I agree with most of you. I prefer manga to anime and subbed to dubbed.

Kacboy, it was a joke. Sort of a rhetorical question. But never mind.
