My personal preference, would have to be both.
Manga, if it has a GOOD storyline. Ex: Death Note, Blood+.
Anime, if you want more of a different (its hard to put it) i could say feeling?
Manga usually has the better storyline, whilest the anime is more of a condensed version.
It all depends on the plot, and such.

Yea, I would go with both. Most of the time I read manga to find anime's to watch. Or while watching the anime, I read the manga to cheat cause i'm impatient.

I prefer the anime for multiple reason. First of all, a video is always nicer than pictures. It got colors and animation. It's also easier to understand. Also, the soundtrack is something really important that can play with your emotion and make you react more to the plot. But not only the soundtrack, but also the voice actors or any sound effect.
However, I hate when they add fillers to the anime or they censor parts for "young audience".

Anime. I've always hated reading unless it really interests me. But when it comes to anime I'd rather see the actions in real time rather than reading it.

Manga. Tells more of the story and is easier to use. Anime is good, but tells less and is a bit harder to get.

That all depends really, I've seen anime's tell the story better than the Manga. Its just finding an anime that follows the manga, Thats difficult.

Manga for sure.
Most of the time, Anime is filled with plot hole, filler, and terrible voice actors (usually dub only)
There are some Animes that are good, but few are as good or better then the manga.
Heres a list of some comparisons in my opinion.
Naruto: Manga > Anime
Bleach: Manga > Anime (awful voice actors...)
Fullmetal Alchemist: Manga > Anime
FMA Brotherhood: Anime < Manga
Code Geass: Manga < Anime
Trigun: Manga > Anime (Anime still amazing though)
Hellsing: Manga > Anime (Anime was still amazing though)
Pandora Hearts: Manga > Anime
Get Backers: Manga > Anime
07 Ghosts: Manga > Anime
Cowboy Bebop: Manga < Anime (First anime ever... Great dub)
Samurai Champloo: Manga < Anime (even good dubbed)
Black Butler: Manga > Anime (didnt finish manga... but looks better than tranny angles)
All I can think of at the moment, But you get the picture.

I always prefer books over a screen but not when it comes to anime.
Just don't have the nerves to read anymore, maybe I overdid it in the past.
It's just easier when you can see something happening even gets easier dubbed, unless it's a horrible dub.

Your fcking kidding me right? I agree with manga being better, but seriously your using E7 as a example? The manga was absolutely terrible in comparison to the anime.

I prefer anime. I prefer reading Naruto over watching it, but that's about.
I can't even think of a specific reason as to why I prefer anime, as I enjoy reading (not just manga)...
* - Sejskaler - Apr 28, 2012
I prefer manga, when I do read as book, it's alot better, has a better feeling, and is not ruined, like some anime's.
Though, I like some anime's better than manga, but my vote will still go for manga :)

Well the anime was about love and rainbows and Bones went ahead and shit on that by making the manga end. The manga in my opinion was even worse then the movie.
