the manga has sooo many words on each page...and i dont like how the artist is different for each arc. actually, i kinda think its cool, but i hate how they look different
The manga made more sense going into detail more,
BUT THE VOICES WERE CUTER IN THE ANIME.
I advise watching season 2 of the anime first then season 1 then season 3 and then read the manga.
Makes the most sense.
I love the artwork of the manga very beautiful but I chose tv because when the scary faces show up it's not that scary in the anime but really scary in the manga...
The anime because I find myself getting into it more; anticipating what will happen next.
However, I've read some of the manga pages online, and let me just say that some of the one-liner quotes in there are just beautiful. For example, at the part where Keiichi dies of a heart attack in the hospital, my god, the drawing of Shmion was just so horrifyingly gorgeous! And the way we see the hand first, and then a little bit of the head just made my heart stop. "Kei-chan... I came to get you..."
And then the page goes black and we hear Keiichi's mind:
"These things didn't end... They are being continued... being, being continued. Someone, please end them all. These cruel, evil, sorrowful incidents. Please end them all. That is my last wish."
We then see a hideous nightmare face of Shmion as she proceeds to jump at him. The end.
The manga is prettier, and definitely more frightening. But the anime remains my personal favorite.
I actually love both the anime and manga and even though I watched the anime first and I haven't read all the arcs in manga I have to say that the manga has more gore and is far more creepier..like in the eye opening arc the scene with rika's suicide is a lot creepier in the manga..But I can't say that the anime isn't creepy..
It was acually a hard choice for me...
Love Higurashi <3
