Manga definitely. I didn't like how the ending of the anime was so quick and it was clearly done in a hurry.

I was originally introduced to Ginga through the GDW anime so I have a soft spot for it, though admittedly I've always preferred the anime adaptation of GNG. I never finished the GDW manga but I definitely prefer it to the anime and I hope to finish it one day. The "look" of the GDW anime just isn't very good looking and it's not nearly as charming as GNG anime was.

I know that the manga is probably miles ahead the anime and it has its fair share of differences, but how much content do you guys think the anime adapts overall?

The manga is better!
But the anime in pretty good anyway
GNG is untouchable both anime and manga.

I prefer manga. The manga is more detailed then the anime, there are more charaters, backstories, and its longer then the anime which is also good in my opinion. The manga explains everything better then the anime in my opinion. The anime doesnt include all the characters (like for example Sniper and Daisuke) and i feel like the anime would have been more interesting if it was more like the manga.

The manga has more world building to it and I would have liked if the anime was better drawn.

I have a really soft spot for anime in my heart. I don't care if the animation isn't always great or if it plagiarizes the music, but I saw it almost right after the GNG anime and that's why it's also very nostalgic. However, I voted for the manga because the anime unfortunately left out a lot of things.

I would say manga since it has more details but when it comes to deaths I would say anime.

Unlike GNG, I vastly prefer the manga for Weed.

Art style is more inline with its predecessor--plus I think the GDW anime looks a bit campy in general. The one thing the anime has going for it is a banger opening theme.

I prefer the manga over the anime because the anime cut out most of the characters backstories and turned Ben into comic relief when he wasn't in the manga

I prefer the anime more. I know the anime isn't perfect, but I liked the changes it made. IMO, the first two volumes of GDW focused on Lenny and Mel and that really bothered me.

I wish they had made the anime according to the manga since they ended it in the Hougen saga but the story still continues

If you chose the anime then you are just wrong. The anime is horrible. How can you put 30 volumes of material in 26 episodes? My bro Ron got done dirty

Just your average enjoyer of manga and anime

Manga. Even achieving the incredible feat of putting 200 chapters in 26 episodes, there are characters who made a big impact in the manga and who are not in the anime.

The anime is very nostalgic to me, but I prefer the manga. The anime is mostly ugly and there's so much cut stuff and changes.
