Black Lagoon, Manga comparison
0
About BL... I never watched the series before, but then, I saw a licensed manga of it sold in my local bookstore. Somehow, I got the urge to buy it, and so I did.. Then it turns out to be an awesome manga, And I love every second of reading it.. So far, the licensed manga have just reach volume 2.. And so I think to watch the anime version..
The simple question is.. Is the anime is awesome enough compared to the manga?.. I don't want to spoil my fun in reading and collecting the manga myself, so it took me a lot of consideration to watch the anime. Any of you have watched and read the manga.. How are they, compared with each other

They are both awesome in there own way... IMO it only depends if you like manga or anime more. I like anime slighty more than manga, so I like the anime. I think things like the music and sfx are solid, and this series doesn't suffer from recycled scenes or slow pacing. So the anime is a win in my book, but I think you might like the manga more since you discover that first. Kinda like the old saying "the book is better than the movie"

In my opinion, both are great. The manga I read for the updates and is good by itself, but I find the anime a great adaptation of taking what's in the manga and putting it on screen. The action scenes are really brought out, and the emphasis on serious dark moments is also quite well done. Personally I recommend checking the anime out if you got time to spare. (Though I am happy to say, BOUT TIME ROBERTA'S ARC IS DONE! DAMN THAT WAS LONG! Now I wonder if season 3 will really all be concentrated on that one arc.)

I see.. I was expecting something like "The MANGA Sucks!!.. Go watch the anime" or vice versa.. But it seems you all hold a high regard of both versions.. Now, it'll be easier (harder actually) to decide which one should I stick with.. Hahaha.. Many thanks to all of you.

Although this is how it works for me in general: Animes>>>>>Books>>>Mangas
Anything with the "BLACK LAGOON" label = Exceptionally Awesome!
Third season was announced on the cover of the novel adaptation.
Oh SNAPS! MERRY CHRISTMAS RAZAMA!
and likewise a HAPPY NEW YEAR! (for it won't be until 2010, hopefully, at the very least.)

At any rate, it's true, I won't deny it but just to be specific, I'm more of a Black Lagoon maniac than of just one, three, or six characters in it.

I honestly prefer the Anime over the Manga, but they are both good.
Oh and you both can keep Revy and Gretel. The real hottie is Roberta.
