When it comes to anime/manga I prefer to read or watch one thing instead of doing both since some of these anime/mangas are so long. So what do you think is the version you can get the most out of. Thanks for the help in advance

anime is full color and has sounds but manga has great drawings and faster to consume aka faster to read but the manga action panels can be hard to understand

Manga art goes crazy so probably pick that then watch the anime if you want more!!

Read, imo the art direction and quality of the manga blows the anime out of the water.

S1-4 up to you. Season 5 onward you need to read the manga. Season 5 especially was an absolutely HORRIBLE adaptation, and it was doing one of the top 2 arcs in the series imo, but made it terribly. From the pacing, to the animation, to what they randomly removed, and the fact they weirdly switched the timeline around, it all sucked

I'd say the manga. In recent seasons, the anime has felt underwhelming. The manga has amazing art and a darker style that the anime just doesn't always deliver on. Also, there's a certain arc in season 5 of the anime that was done so dirty. That alone makes the manga worth reading

Either, but if you choose to watch the anime then don’t watch season 5 or 6. They are adapted poorly and it’s better to read them

Read. I love My Hero, it's probably my favorite manga, but there are parts in both formats you might want to be able to just skim through. Plus you can properly binge it now

Watch season 7/8 for sure though

I didn't expect that season 6 and 7 would be hated this much despite being the highest rated in the series (season 6 ---> 8,25) and (season 7 ---> 8,07)
The majority are advising me to read manga, so I will give it a go.
Thanks for the help

Like someone said S1-4 and their manga equivalents are neck to neck but S5 (mostly it's latter part) was adapted like ASS so hard that I haven't really watched the anime since. I've heard that after that it kinda corrected course so I'm gonna watch them some day but honestly I ended up liking going manga only for the finale.
