everyone who's jaded about anime should still bother to check out originals, but it's pretty easy to see why people would get jaded about anime in general and not bother. when 90% of shows are adaptations and 90% of those will never be complete adaptations, it's not surprising when people don't even bother

the board is called anime and manga. it's composed of viewers of anime and readers of manga. a thread telling the entire board to read more manga would get lots of responses about how anime is simply the superior medium and why would I bother reading in black and white when I can watch it animated in color with voice acting and music. that's just something you have to deal with unless we get a dedicated manga board.
