I'm gonna elaborate briefly. I heard from my friend who watched AND read TPN that the manga is better than the anime. I wanted to ask everyone for an opinion. Should I give the anime a shot or should I read the manga instead?

Also I know this is a better topic for the TPN manga forum, but these always tend to be dead.

If you want you can watch the first season and then read the rest which is my preferred experience. Season 2 absolutely butchered the source material while season 1 stayed very faithful overall. Start from Chapter 38 if you do this.

As Long as the Sun, the moon, and the Earth exist, everything will be alright.

I haven't read the manga but there's no way it's worse than the shitshow that was the second season.

Here is my smol story.
So I couldn't wait for season 2 and started reading the manga and also completed it on the day before the release of season 2. And you know this one feeling "Ah, thank god I did this instead of waiting for that", I really felt this way.
So, watch season 1 and then read manga.

I've recently completed the manga and in my opinion The things I didn't like about season 2 in the anime are still in the manga.. infact there are more things I don't like in the manga. The manga is not better than the anime but read the manga because you miss out on a lot in the anime

Watch season 1 and that's it. Don't watch season 2 and don't read the manga. Leave the ending to your imagination.

If you have time, watch both seasons, and then read the manga and start from where 1st season ended

YES! Personally I’ve watched the first season and then read the whole manga from the start after that and it was amazing. I’ve heard so many bad things about the second season and apparently it doesn’t follow the manga (which is way better imo) so you should read the manga.

Yes read the manga, it’s so good! The ending is a bit underwhelming but it’s way better than the anime ending! Plus the anime cut out many great characters and arcs. Btw season 1 of the anime is still pretty good on it’s own so you can watch that if you want, just don’t watch season 2.

You shouldn't watch/read promised neverland. Doing so will just waste your time.

Of course the manga is better than the anime....its the case with all anime/manga no exceptions cause u get more action and details than an anime where they have to finish in 12/24 episodes even if they cut half the characters and events....and more enjoyable is the light novel
