Dragon Ball Super’s MANGA Is BETTER Than the ANIME 

The manga came off less childish and the things that were different were better

the manga may not be perfect, but it is lightyears ahead of the anime, toei animation ruined a lot of things honestly

Fax the Goku Black arc is one of my favorite arcs in all of Dragonball and I've only watched the anime, but going back and reading it in the manga made me love it WAAAY more

For one, the fights in the Manga just feel more like Z, and Goku isn't as much of a manchild in it. The manga also doesn't overpower Kale and Caulifla. I think Gohan beating them was fairer tan UI being what it took in the anime. The manga version of Goku for one is better. The Manga version of Jiren is better. The manga version of Gohan is easily better. etc. The manga also is a bit better in scaling in some areas people complained about in the anime, like Goku fighting 17 in the manga at SSJ3 is a bit better than him fighting SSB in the anime. Or Gotens fighting Beerus at SSJ3, instead of in base in the movie and anime of BoG.

I usually prefer manga over adaptations because manga has no stupid filler, no censorship, consistently good visuals, and better pacing. However, I do see the appeal of anime, and I understand why most fans prefer anime over manga.

I wish they did Gohan vs Kefla at the tournament of power in the anime too, I wanted to see Himhan again 😭.

1:13 incorrect, Toei does not have any part in Pokemon. Pokemon is done by OLM.

Fun fact the Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods movie and Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection 'F' movie is way better than the anime versions. also I agree that the manga is better than the anime. but the anime has some better moments like the top goku getting ui and mui was better in the anime but it’s annoying how they changed the gohan vs kelfa fight and replaced it with goku vs kelfa etc.

If I recall dbs 'ended' due to shueisha (toei boss) basically relaized that they kinda fucked up by making the anime go ahead of the manga which is one of the reasons why it 'ended' and also broly.

Super Saiyan Blue has a weakness in the manga & in the anime it doesn't.

I watched the anime and hated all of it. I did hate against dragon ball super all the time when asked. Now that ive read the manga ive made some Peace with it. It gives me the sense that true db fans still need to read the manag in order to get a great experience. The anime is made for an audience which includes children's and people none familiar with dragon ball

Manga feels more like Dragon ball and dbz and Goku is not that dump

I also don’t think the manga has flat out superior better pacing than the anime in many instances. The battle with Beerus only be less than 20 pages, and the introduction to Super Saiyan God and Videl’s pregnancy all being one page, is pretty bad. Toyotaro hits the fast forward button to much, which greatly lessens what should be extremely impactful moments

I say it depends on the arc or situation, but yeah the majority of the manga differences are usually way better, but when the manga drops the ball (like in the actual ToP) oh man if it drops it hard. I wish in the future they will do a unified Super manga/anime that takes the best aspects of anime and manga for the definitive Super experience.

Not always because the TOP version of the manga was complete garbage ass cheeks while the anime for the TOP as dragged out as it was it was still pretty hype

Manga is great. They also have a color version btw. Best way to experience dragon ball.

The manga’s content with the anime’s visuals would be peak

Manga felt more organized compared to the anime and explained things that didn’t make sense in the anime such as SSB Vegeta losing to Hit without a challenge while Goku was able to land two punches on Hit in base form and also the manga used my favorite form, SSG way more, had regular Super Saiyan Goku Black, didn’t have Trunks’ asspull of a transformation with Rage (which still has no explanation all these years later) and has one of the best arcs in Super with the Moro arc

I'm going to start the Dragon Ball series (kinda again?), should I go by the anime or the manga? I know anime give something that the manga never can, but I've been hearing a lot of things about how the manga is very different from the anime. For context, I'm planning on watching DB, DBZ KAI & DBS all without the filler. So what do y'all think? Anime or manga?

The only reason that I like the Dragon Ball Super anime is because it has Battle of Gods, Resurrection F and Broly which don't appear in the manga at all :(

I think the best way to watch super is to •watch battle of gods •IF YOU CAN FIND RESSURECTION F SUPER CUT(watch that) it bring the golden frieza arc from like a 6 to an 8. After that I suggest just reading.

I actually love the manga tournament of power so much more than the anime so I was surprised to see that glossed over. Yeah the anime was longer and there was more time to shine for the weaker members, but I felt like the faster pace of the manga felt more realistic for what the TOP was and focused more on the meat of the arc. And Jiren was WAY too overpowered in the anime, not that that is inherently a bad thing but they just spend so much time showing off how ridiculously powerful he is just for that power gap to be trivialized by ultra instinct. I felt like Ultra Instinct being awakened because of Master Roshis "final lesson from turtle school" of focusing on conquering oneself instead of just trying to achieve stronger and stronger battle power was so much more unique and fitting than just absorbing a spirit bomb. They also put more focus on Jirens weakness and downfall being his refusal to work with his teammates, which ties nicely into the theme of the arc being teamwork, and makes Jiren feel like a much more fleshed out character and antagonist with just this little bit of characterization.The fight between Ultra Instinct and Jiren was short and sweet and left you wanting to see more from Ultra Instinct and more from Jiren since he was never truly defeated.

I hate that dragon ball is going in a direction where its only fighting and everyone is strong all the time but not using brains. But the anime made it worse, no brutality no brains no sense with power levels

I agree the biggest problem with Super is it rushing through forms, giving them no wait, giving them no feats and the character never really training for them to get stronger in the same spirit as Z. All the new forms feel tacked on and underwhelming aside from UI. The manga presents SSB a lot better than the Super anime because it got more focus and it had a mastered form that followed Whis training of keeping Ki in their bodies to maximize their movement, instead the anime just does the opposite and throws in Kaioken, and explaining that as Ki control.. even though it doesn't fit at all with Whis training in ROF. The thing that made UI interesting was that it felt more like a Z form, where it was treated like a work in progress, it had the incompletely early stage then the true UI form, and its still treated like a work in progress in the manga. There is no sense that the form is just done and useless the way the anime handled SSG and SSB.

I didn't read the manga at first but watched the anime. It was disgusting. Animations were bad and the tournament of power was childish colorful and had nothing to do with dragon ball. Even more the power level made zero sense. In the manga now I loved toppo vs Frieza/Vegeta and kefla vs Gohan. I did hate kefla vs Goku ui... It made zero sense

I agree for the most part but the manga beerus is stupid. He literally can never be surpassed

Bro is spitting facts

Dbs feels closer to Akira toriyama

Having my little brother read thru the manga first, then we can watch the anime.

i'm pretty sure that Pokemon has always been animated by a studio named OLM since the beginning of the anime. Toei never touched it.

I’d say BoG : Anime > Manga RoF : Anime > Manga U6 Tournament : Anime > Manga Black Arc : Anime < Manga ToP : Anime >> Manga Manga exclusive Arcs >>>>>>

In the anime Goku flat out surpasses Goku Black, and starts having scaling to Merged Zamasu and even later Vegito Blue. The anime has far greater scaling than the manga

I hated how in the top anime all these sailor moon characters and goofy none relevant fighters got screen time as hell. And these attack their names and colors.. hell no

I like the tournament of power in the manga better. It sucks because the animation was peak. But the anime tried too hard to be emotional. With the master Roshi scene, to Jiren’s backstory. I also prefer Goku and Vegeta teaming up over Goku and Frieza. Just my opinion.

Bruh pokimon isn't made by Toei lol .

I wish the dragon balls were real to make anime as good as the manga

Toei animation has nothing to do with pokemon it always has been animated by olm lmao their biggest series are precure, sailor moon, one piece and db

Probably because manga goku isn't as idiotic as anime goku Of course super goku i was talking about cause i #@@##@ hate super

Dragon ball super is all about transformations, and powerlevels. Its plain boring but the anime topped it with stupid side quests and rainbows colors all over the place

honestly ace's death didn't even hit me that hard at all, I was just "eh". It's wasn't sad tbh, just foolish.

Between the manga and the anime, for which one the first arrival of ultra instinct goku was more logical?

I don't think you can get the feel the of fights in manga as you can get in anime😊

Dont get it why ssj blue is not blue but turquoise

I actually think the anime is more emotionally invested compare to the manga and the thematic focus is stronger, making the story more impactful even though there're a lot of nonsense in it.

I don’t think think the super anime is still cannon but they are to busy with a web anime a movie and the the show

Sure the manga my have started as the same thing from dbz but super in the anime is more child like

TOEI doesn’t own Pokémon 😬

People Dragonball too seriously

Can I get one arc in the Super manga that is better than the anime?

RIP Toriyama

Manga hard to read???? Lmao no it's just you That shid is clean You need to get your eyes Bleached home boy 🎉 If not read the Coloured version instead but great video

What about the overcrowded and poorly paced pages? Is it still worth reading?

Toriyama doesn't even write the manga which means Super is no more cannon than GT💯 once Toriyama PHYSICALLY writes super ONLY THEN will it be considered cannon🤓💯

Nah the anime of super is better

No it's not.

The manga is better than the anime because it already has a story to improve on. The moment Toyotaro has to write an arc by himself, we get Moro, the worst villain in all dragonball and Granolah arc, the worst arc in all dragonball.

Dude atleast use Coloured Manga Panels wtf 🤣 you expect people to watch and just guess he's in super Saiyan god In that manga panel??? Lmao come on man

This is cap
