Which one of these two do you prefer? To read a manga or to watch an anime?

I like anime's more; I am not a reader and i have a really hard time to get through one book.
We already had a thread about this, so I merged your thread with that one; please be sure to check that your thread doesn't already exist before you post it. Thanks.

I generally prefer manga over anime, it's easier to take with me when I'm on the go and they usually don't fall into the trappings of lazy art, like some longer running series tend to do. That and I really don't like most of the seiyuu out there, so it's easier for me to not put up with their voices.

I can tolerate manga, but I really prefer anime. The vivid colors and music are a bonus, and usually the voices make the experience even better. Also, some anime have filler eps so the story is expanded in a way. The anime is occasionally better at building up suspense or setting the right move. Lastly, anime has theme songs, and, IMO, the action is much easier to follow :) (i.e., Naruto, One Piece) But I don't like when the anime completely deviates from the manga at some point (i.e., FullMetal Alchemist.

Oh yeah, the dub anime of Naruto IMO has better jutsu names than the manga.
