Any anti-FMA fans here?

I read the manga long before it became big, back in the day when Toriyama World scanlated it (who also started Naruto if I recall). I thought the manga was pretty good, then started watching the anime and thought that was decent. Most anime that becomes overrated are due because of American release (usually), like Evangelion and Naruto. If anything I think Naruto deserves that title now.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

There's truth behind Manga>Anime. It's just better the majority of the time. It's similar to Novel>Movie. The Count of Monte Cristo? Les Miserables (the musical... shudder)? But since movies have a MUCH higher budget than anime, sometimes the Movie>Novel. This is debateable, but The Lord of the Rings, Pride and Prejudice, Emma, just to name a few.

The Anime>Manga situation is rarely the case, much to manga readers' chagrins. Even I can't name one case.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
