CATDOLL: Netizens hotly debate: Will people still read the original works when watching anime? One Piece says it’s been shot

Anime fans all know that Japanese animations are generally adapted from comics or light novels, and original animations still only account for a small proportion. Among these adapted animations, those adapted from comics still account for the majority, but now there are so many new episodes every season, just watching the animation is enough. If the degree of animation adaptation is not large, will anyone still read the original comics? This question is actually an old question, and it also involves which form is better, animation or comics? Now Japanese netizens have also begun to discuss, now is the time to read comics or watch animation? Is it really necessary to watch them together when you have time?

The comics are finished earlier than the animation, so you can know the sequel and the ending earlier. Some comics are more original and more interesting than the animation.

If the original work of the anime is a manga, of course it is better to use the original manga.

I think comics are better because you can watch them at your own pace and finish an episode very quickly, whereas animations are sometimes too long and time-consuming.

If the animated version is not as good as the manga, people will watch the original work. However, there are also examples like "Attack on Titan" where the animation is more perfect than the original work.

After reading the original manga, I found the animation more interesting.

If you want to see dynamic battle scenes, animation is of course better than comics. Animation needs more frames and smoother movements, but it costs money.

People who only read the original manga and don’t watch the anime are usually the following: 1. People who can’t keep up with the 24-minute animation of a manga. 2. People who don’t have much idea about music and voice actors. 3. People who only watch late-night anime and don’t know the broadcast time of other anime. 4. People who feel that they have grasped the plot after reading the manga and don’t think it’s necessary to spend time watching the anime.

It depends on the type of original work. Manga original: If it is adapted into an animation, I will read the original manga. Anime original: Even if there is a manga version, I will still watch the animation. Game original: If it is adapted into an animation, I will buy the game itself if the animation is interesting. Light novel original: Even if it is adapted into an animation, it does not mean it is a good work. I will not watch the animation or the original work.

Animation can bring a more intuitive feeling to the audience. Even if they don’t think while watching animation, the audience can understand it well through the pictures, sounds and actions.

If the original comic is bad, the animation adapted from it will also be bad. It doesn't mean that it will be good after being animated.

If you watched the anime first, you will definitely read the comics.

Watching animations like "JOJO" is enough, I really don't have the energy to read the comics again.

Many comic books are perfect in their original form, but are dragged down by their animated versions. That’s why I only read the original works.

If you like the style of the comic version more than the animation version, you will still read the comic first, and imagine the voices, movements, etc. of the characters in your mind. If you then watch the animation version and it doesn't feel the way you imagined, you won't be able to continue watching it.

In fact, it seems that many people start watching a lot of works from the animation, and many people go back to read the comics to see the later plots, right? However, nowadays, animation adaptations, especially long works, are almost disconnected from the original works, so many anime fans are more fond of the original comics. What is your situation? Let's talk about it.
