There is no denial of the fact that anime is just like a trailer of the original story drawn by the artist. Manga contains all the details that an otaku would love to absorb. It is extremely interesting to watch stories in the form of anime where the viewer can enjoy the voices of their characters and the music that makes them more enjoyable. However, it still can’t compete with the joy of reading a Manga where the story is much more detailed and the reader is left dependent on their own imagination.

Which Manga Have You Read?
Reading manga is just as interesting as reading a book, if not more. The illustrations really help with the reader’s imagination. Some mangas are really good to read in case you are bored or just looking for something fun to pass time but some of the manga artists just take the plot too far that it amazes the reader and influences their thinking in a way that has never been done by anything else before.
It expands the reader’s way of thinking and changes their views about the things around them. You must try some, if not all, of the above amazingly unique manga!
