Origin VS Adaptation
Original or Adapted?

Since it's effort to try and find manga, and of course catch up with a long-running manga series, it's alot easier for me to just find the anime and watch it. Bleach is a fine example.
So for me, at the moment, it's adaptation. Purely out of laziness.

TOO BAD I'LL NEVER GET TO SEE MIKIYA'S DAUGHTER BATTLE IT OUT WITH RYOUGI FOR FATHERLY AFFECTION. DAT WINCEST.WHAT?!
.....I think I should start reading the Light Novels, eh?
IKR?
But that aside, has anyone found the adaptation of a material to be superior in one way or another to the original?
I think Clannad and After Story should've been obvious...

I haven't read Fate/Zero or Kara no Kyoukai Light Novels so I can't say much but I think their adaptions by ufotable should be quite the good one.
For adaption surpassing the original, I would say Shuffle. The anime was much better than the VN in my opinion. The VN was very bland and there was no Kaede Yandere moments. I was looking forward to some Yandere action but was let down very heavily.....

Oh, right. Shuffle!
Well, I haven't seen F/0 yet because i'm waiting for every episode to be finished, so I can have a marathon. But from what i've heard, it's done fabulously by UFOtable, so yeah, can't wait :3

I would say original. Most adaptations of the work either ruin the original author's intent, or just turn something good into a pile of TERRIBLE.
On the other hand, some mangas, (Ga-Rei) specifically, have adaptations that far exceed the popularity of the original work. These occurrences however are fairly rare.
Overall, Original.

The God Eater manga is just a bunch of side stories that don't take place in any of the games. It's more of filling the time between God Eater Burst and God Eater 2. Also shows the story of the other units besides 1st and 3rd.

I like seeing a movie of a book that I haven't read, then after I read the book, if I do it the other way, I see more flaws in the movie for some reason. It may simply be the first opinion being stronger than you realize. I'll have to disagree here. I think that first opinions might be strong but if the adaptation was good then it would even overshadow the original. Let me give an example.
I actually watched the Twilight Movie(I know, don't say anything) before I read the book. I thought the movie was very lousy. I proceeded to borrow the book from a friend I got to know in camp. I found that the book was much better. I still find Vampires "Sparkling" to be ridiculous but the book was much more bearable than the movie.
hehe I wasn't stating that the adaptation can usually best the original if you give it a chance, what I'm saying, if you start with the original, you will hate the adapation even more. A what the hell did they do to my beloved book reaction.
How could you use Twilight as your example? The Twilight movies were horrid as movies go. Oh and if you are looking for more than sparkling vampires to be wrong, look at it in this light, it was written by a Mormon. Apply the views of older man attracting a younger woman...Yes it applies to the main characters, but how about the destined mates of the wolves, on sight of an infant or toddler, they spotted their life mates, the baby seeming to love Jacob? excuse me?.....Oh and there's plenty of other references but why make a book....
