Please forgive me if this has already been asked in another thread, but I'm relatively new to this whole thing and I must ask... which do you prefer, the Naruto manga or the Naruto anime?
For me, I prefer the manga to any anime take (with the exception of Wolf's Rain, the manga was based off the anime and was horrible), because the manga is the true story as the author intended. Personally, I love the Naruto manga.
So.... thoughts? Opinions?

I have read the manga for about 6 years now, and Naruto is still one of my favorite manga's (Death Note kinda kicked it to the curb for awhile). I only watch the anime when it isn't fillers (though now thats hard to avoid T_T), but I do like some of the fight scenes that weren't in the manga but still I choose the manga no matter what.

Manga beats anime, hands-down.

Manga, the one thing I do like prefer in the anime are the fight scenes. But lately the animation in Shippuden has been lagging except for the first few eps and the latest one.

I like the Manga, but as SP said, I love the anime for the fight scenes. I may be wrong, but I dont think the anime has deviated much from the manga plotline itself.

I like the Manga cause it's short and sweet.
I like the anime however cause I love watching them move and hearing their voices. And the colors...

I definitely say Anime because, it's more entertaining and such than the manga would be...

I'm more of a fan of the manga. Anime has a nasty habit of dragging things out too long to the point where you lose interest. The Anime pace is a whole lot slower which gets really annoying, eventhough the Shippuuden episodes are a whole lot better but still the pace is slow. Also Gai is really downplayed in the Anime and is reduced to a moron, but in the manga he's just goofy.

I'd have to disagree with the entertaining part, Kishimoto's jokes and humor far out way anything the anime puts out originally. Most of the time the anime just replays a joke that has already been overused...such as Naruto bathroom joke (if anyone saw the 'special ova') or even the 'sexy no jutsu' was used far more than in the manga. Oh well everyone is entitled to their own opinions. They had better put Konohamaru's sexy male-male jutsu in there though.

^ OMG, they better put that SasuSai scene in there!! That was hot!!! They'll probably censor it to no end, though. The manga usually has better art. I'm not saying I haven't found a weirdly drawn manga panel from time to time, but it's nothing like all the times the anime has screwed up with its animation. But you can't get awesome images like this from the manga, sadly. XD

Well since I never red the manga before (I will read it probably in July) the anime. Still Naruto is the first anime I really watch( I saw the first episode of bleach and the first two of Death note but they're not really my thing)

Yeah, but when you watch just the anime, you're missing out on so much. Kishimoto's original work is much better.

I like the manga better. The plot progresses faster, and the jokes don't get overused. I liked the Tenten/Temari fight in the anime, though.
