| I thought it would be fun to have a discussion about the anime and manga Full Moon wo Sagashite. There are plenty of differences between the two, after all, and I'm sure you guys have some opinions about all that! So, have at it, but remember to keep it friendly. No flaming or bashing. And yes, this thread WILL contain spoilers. You have been warned! So, now let's hear what you guys think! Have at it! :D |

| Right now I can not say. I have only seen the anime but I do wish to read the manga. (does anyone know where I can download the manga?) From what I'm hearing from many sources the manga is just as good as the anime which makes me want to the manga even more! X3 I really liked the anime alot though, it even made me cry when Mitsuki found out about Eichi's death. It's just an absolutly beautiful story to reach ones dream even though many difficulties happen. |

| i like the manga better. but the anime has th music manga! I can't see the suicidal Moe in the anime..... |

| I prefer the Anime. I just can't understand what's the "fun" in reading a story about music. It's like reading Nodame Cantabile... it's no fun if you don't actually hear the music. <-- But this is the smallest of my reasons. I love hearing each character's voice. Japanese voice actors are very expressive. It's really moving. Takuto's dreamy voice just helped me like him more. I thought the manga was "darker" compaired to the anime. Not that I prefer the "PG" version of things... but what REALLY captivated me in the story was Mitsuki's inner strength. Her awesome ability to go on no matter what. And the anime reflected that better. -- Plus, I honestly didn't specially like Meroko or Izumi... so knowing more about their story would be meaningless to me. To me they were «average» characters. But yes... the characters looked much better visually in the manga. The anime could have been MUCH better if it had different/better animation and more detailed characters. I honestly could do without all those bright colours... they kind of remind me of Doraemon. LOL |

| I like the story in the manga better~ |
| The manga was by far, the better story. I'm sure you think "why would I want to READ a story about music?" If you love full moon as much as I do, you know that it's not about music, so much as it is about the lyrics and the journey of mitsuki persuing her dream to brighten the hearts of people with her music. Mitsuki doesn't play any music, she sings lyrics from her soul. She writes all her own songs that just happen to go along well with music. I was actually a really big fan of Meroko and Izumi. I would read the IzuxMero scenes over and over in my manga, it's what got me so interested in the series in the first place. When I found out Izumi was all but cut out of the series, I was pretty mad, but when I found out he was NOTHING more than an antagonist, it drove me crazy. Izumi was mitsuki's friend. Izumi lived with them. Jonathan WAS the ending, that thing with Jonathan at the end of the manga was brillant. Even Jona-chi fell in love and had a happy ending. Everybody had somebody to be with and and be in love with the the manga, in the anime... what? Only takuto and mitsuki got together. (and that was only assuming they got together.there was no proof.) The manga, all the way. |

| I prefer the manga, although I've only read one chapter so far..... xD |
Tiamat said: Anime... (random spoiler button) going way to fast? No way, the manga was made first. It was going at a good pace but the anime spread it way too far out, the anime was 99% fillers. |

| I haven't read much of the manga but I certainly think it's better than the anime. |
 Click here to feed me! (gomene for my englisch, it's not my mother language, so... ^/////^) |
| The manga was definetly better. Yes i do like the anime very much, but the manga beats it. First of all it's the beautiful art style in the manga compared to the okay animated characters. Then we have the strong, sad and beautiful story in the manga with proper background for other characters than just Takuto and Mitsuki, compared to all the fillers (even though I enjoyed them, I really would have liked less of it). The anime's storyline takes a whole different turn from the manga. I did like both stories, but the manga was much better overall. The pluspoints with the anime are of course the songs. We have the nice eternal snow, (which I fell in love with the first time i heard it) and myself and other song. I would have liked to hear the songs from the manga though. (the mermaid princess and the one in vol. 4 or 5) |

Seafoam said: Teetlepie, I know what you mean about re-reading scenes. I'm sure all of us have done it, but you're the first I've read to say it. I would re-read Takuto and Mitsuki scenes OVER and over again!! Especially the ending! ^_^ True, you can't hear the music, but you look at all the pictures and can feel the music inside. Ya know? finally someone gets it! I did the same things, except with izumero scenes. I still re-read them to this day! I could hear mitsuki singing, you knew what happened behind the lyrics, and mitsuki sang like a 12 year old when she was 12, and a 16 year old when she was 16. Myco is an amazing singer, just not an amazing seiyu. |

| i think the manga was better<3 it went into much more detail about their pasts and the art is sooo beautiful~*♥ i thought the anime was sad but the manga had me crying even more! ...im just waiting to get vol. 7 now :) but the anime was really great too<33 |
| BOTH!! They're both wonderful....for really different reasons.... Anime strengths Manga strengths So yeah....how can you choose between all THOSE things!? Answer: You can't. |
  |
| Voted for the Anime The manga is more detailed and has a happier ending for everyone. However, I would not have been a dedicated fan of this series if I didn't hear the inspiring songs in the anime version. :) |
| I love both but the manga is still better in my opinion =) |
| Manga. No doubt about it. I forced my self to finish the anime because i thought it would be at least pretty good but....i don't know....it just didn't click for me-_- i gave it a 4 because it didn't really seem to have much of a plot to me. The manga on the other hand, Was FANTASTIC. the first volume was the first manga i ever bought^^ the fact that |
 |
| I like both stories... I've watched anime first.And now,I've just completed manga series. |
