An anime it is. Even though actors could be good, and visual effects have really evolved this day, a live action just could not do justice to the fantasy and fictional world of manga and anime. For one there are a lot of comical emotes that are funny in 2D but not so much in a real person's face. Fictional powers, unbelievable agility, beastly creatures, etc. these are the things that would look greater in anime than in live action (a good example is the difference of Attack on Titan anime and Live action). Lastly, live actions are usually means movie adaptations, and since it is a movie, there is very limited time. A lot of important scenes are cut-off just to meet that time table. So for me, it is better for mangas be transformed into anime.

I actually live both. But, I have to admit that animes are top-notch and hard to beat. If they would be pitted against each other, surely, anime will win.

You're right. You'll find it hard to beat anime. Imagine the old live action series. They looked super cheesy compared to their animated counterparts. Even now, it can still come across as cheesy despite the latest technology.

Most live action films which uses lots of CGI have dragging stories and less action, it doesn't give justice to the manga. Unlike anime movies which has a faster story and script. Animes also has a lot more action than live action movies.

Well I am not really saying that all live action sucks. Actually there are a few that have been accpeted by the masses. Hanayori Dango have had a lot of adaptation and from different countries, no less.

But if you have been a fan of the Manga, and you heard of a movie/series adaptation, I think most of us would agree that anime would do it more justice.

Well, maybe it's because we are more used to associate mangas with anime, instead of mangas with live action. So, whenever you see a manga that is more into live action, it seems very unreal to us for the purpose of the animation. Anime makes it more eye friendly, so we go with it, and let's face it, that looks really cool.

I agree, live action movies are nice but look at what happened with Avatar: The Last Airbender, the animated series was a million times better than the live-action movie which completely failed. Plus animated is better for truly showing everything that happens in the manga.

Really? I like how the sequel, The Legend of Kora, goes through series with great allotment in presenting of origins of the Avatars. The first Avatar, Avatar Wan's episodes is like Avatar Rocco's in the first series, The last airbender. It was so fun to watch because you get to learn more about their own world.

But anyway, I think I read somewhere that there is an upcoming movie of Avatar Ang, dedicated to finding Zuko's mother. So this is before avatar Kora came to being. Or is the movie released already? I still have to confirm it.

Even though I didn't liked their first movie adaptation of Avatar Aang, I guess I will still look forward into it.

Anime has a wider range of possibilities to create effects. It gives more color and emphasizes to the story giving it a much bigger effect on its viewers. I would prefer anime because you can create amazing effects that seems to be impossible to do with live action.

I like both, to be honest with you, however, live action films are not always as good as anime one's. As the options of the movie directors are more limited. For example, Attack on Titan anime was brilliant and amazing, while the movie was not. The giants were creepy there, yeah, but the entire movie was boring.

I'll go with anime. Even though it still doesn't compare to a manga. An anime is often changed or edited and some parts of the story are left out. It is of course understandable since they need to fit the story in thirty minutes of a season which is usually consist of twelve episodes. Movies for me cut off even more out of the story and it always moves faster than it should, which is also expected since they need to summarize the whole story into a maximum of three hours.

Anime. Certainly film technology has come so far. However, live action won't be able to do justice to the endless visual possibilities that the manga universe comes with. Animes will do just fine for me. Plus I never really watch the stories and not feel like they're people. Of course I know they're cartoons, but they're simply characters telling a story. That is the same for live action movies. The actors are simply characters telling a story.

There's no doubt, Anime for the win. Sorry for being bias with my answer but I'm an avid fan of Anime. There are scenes which can't be done in live action. It is possible though it would take them a long time to create the special effects. I do watch live actions too but most of them made me disappointed. It's either I don't like the special effects or the actors weren't able to portray the characters correctly.

Well, let me tell you this, the Titans are scary and creepy. VERY. Even scarier than the anime version. But the movie itself is just made very boring, lore-wise. I wouldn't recommend watching Attack on Titan, with the exception of the first 20-30 minutes, just for the horror element in it.

For me anime, you will see a clean preference for Anime due to the fact anime adaptations are greater precise. it's far simpler to make the characters seems like precisely as within the screenplay, you may pick out the great voice actors, you could animate and display any fantasy, magic, sci-fi factors in it.

I’m yet to see a single live-action adaptation of a manga that didn’t suck.

A recent, notorious example of a failed live-action adaptation is Netflix’s Death Note movie. I don’t know who was in charge of producing that dumpster fire of a movie, but it was bad. I didn’t know whether I should laugh or cry, because it strayed so far from the source material, I wasn’t even sure about what I was watching.

On the other hand, the anime adaptation is easily one of my favorite shows of all time. Anime almost always gets it right, while live-action almost never does.

I wouldn’t have been so angry about the live-action adaptation had they done at least a decent job about keeping the same vibes/energy of the original anime and manga. I don’t mind that it was basically rebooted with a different setting and characters, but the biggest problem was that it just didn’t feel like something that should be a part of the Death Note franchise.

There is a certain fundamental essence that you need to keep when rebooting something or creating a sequel. Change is fine, but it isn’t fine when you execute it improperly.

Kakashi is referring about mangas or animes that have been adapted to live action films. Examples of these are Death note, Samurai X or known as Rurouni Kenshin and Nana.

I think that kakashi2020 is referring to real action movies that is being played or portrayed by real people when he say about live action films in my own understanding. Live action films are one of my favorite because I feel so much excitement and enjoyment when watching it which is something that I really like most. I want some thrilling experience because it makes me interested to watch a particular movie.

I would prefer anime since anime can really justified the character's facial emotion and even the surroundings and it's costumes. Anime gives you an out of this world cinematography. Not that I am not a fan of live action but when talking about exaggeration and the extravagant visual I would always prefer anime because it gives you a colorful and extra ordinary visual.

You are right. I am an anime fan since I was a kid until now that I am older. Only anime can give justice to a manga. Nowadays, animes are getting more advanced and better than before. The graphics are just out of this world. Maybe live action adapted animes will be up to par if the cinematography will improve.

Some titles are best suited for live action but almost always anime is the way to go. It's more versatile. Live action films are limited by the real world. With anime, it's limitless. Most mangas are written with the intention of getting an anime anyway.

Sometimes I like to watch some anime films because I find them to be cute and very flexible, I had been a fan of some anime series before during my childhood times and I usually watched until now that I am already grown up. It feels good because they are very entertaining and sometimes near to reality.

Anime or Live Action Films: I love both! I don't want to choice between the two. Live action film is good to watch specially the thrilling part that can really make me feel alive and agresive too while watching. In Anime I love watchung it since when I am a child. It is part of my childhood and it never fails to amazed me too.

I have yet to encounter a live action manga adaptation that gave justice to the source material, so I would say it would be anime for me. Manga to Anime has had such a good track record of doing good that there are actually no complaints because most of the time the adaptation perfectly resembles the manga.

I prefer anime than live action movies. Though live action movies are getting better because of technology, anime is still the best to portray those amazing actions and special effects. And most of all, everybody is safe in anime for they do not need to perform life threatening stunts just to give the best portrayal of the story.

I'm currently watching a lot of Anime Movies nowadays. I reserve all Anime Movies for watching during the Holiday Season. In normal months I would watch only the series animes and would save the anime movies for December.

I like action films as they are very motivating to watch and I learn some ideas from it that I sometimes applied in my day to day living. It is great to watch because of some realistic events in the film that sometimes happen in the real life situation that is ahy I really like it so much.

Though through the continuous progression and development of technology, film makers can now create a state of the art live action movies from anime adaptation, but I would still prefer anime because of their facial expressions and fighting scenes that live actions cannot equalize.

Yes, advancements in technology had made it possible to create stunning visuals that can mimic what the anime was going for. My issue is about the writing when it is adapted into a film, details are lost because of time constraints, the anime would have plenty of episodes and running hours to slowly explain the origins of characters while a film would have to do with the time it has.
