Manga


Card Captor Sakura This is basically the same story as the anime but it moves alot faster, for example in one book Sakura can capture about 3 cards (not clear about this) and also in the book, Li and herself have a closer relationship although in the beginning they fight for Yuki's heart.

Story and Art by CLAMP, also the creators of Magic Night Raearth



Dragon Ball Z Dragon Ball Z tells the same story as the anime, but this goes ALOT faster unlike in the Anime the battle between Freeza took about 20 something episodes(or more) and it gets kind of boring watching the two of them fight continuously. However, in the Manga everything goes much faster and it has more humor than the show has.
Detective Conan It tells the same story as the anime, but the manga shows more of the clues on how Ran finds out that Conan is really Shinji.


El Hazard Great book, about a boy who gets transfered to another world by kissing a statue(which comes to life)and in this world he gets a strange power, there is also three or four women who fall in love with him but he only exists in El Hazard for one person and vise versa.


Gundam Wing Same story but this has a different dialog and it shows specific things that happen and explains that the anime and the movie. For example it tells Trowa's real name.


Gundam Wing Episode Zero Great book, explains how the gundam pilots became the pilots of their gundams.


Inu-Yasha I don't really know much about it but it is a great manga,make sense?


Nausicaa Of The Valley Of The Wind Humanity is in trouble of dieing and Nausicaa and her trops move forwards in attemts to end the battle. Yet this story is no war saga, but rather the story of the coming of a pacifist. Along with her troups she moves forwards mourning the death of her compagnions and her foes.

Although this is a really crappy review, considering I can't say any more because it'll just ruin the story this is a really great book, I'm serious. When most people hear pacifist they think Relena (that's what I think) but Nausicaa is nothing like it. She shows a stronger compassion towards the end of the war. This is seriously a GREAT book.

Created by: Hayao Miyazaki, the person who brought you the Excellent movie "Princess Mononoke" and others such as "Kiki's Delivery Service", "My Neighbor Totoro", and producer of "Pompoko" which won 1995 Academy Award's Best Foreign Film.



Oh My Goddess! The original series of OMG wasn's as good as it was expected to be (from what I've heard) but the other books such as "The Fourth Goddess", "Childhood's End" and more were excellent books.

Pokemon Do not read the books that follow the anime which raided the world a few years ago, but read the manga, like the one where Ash get's a crush on Gary's sister(yes he has a sister)this (I found) was much better than the anime. I beleive this one was created for the older "people" who enjoyed watching pokemon.


Ranma 1/2 About a boy who turns into a girl when he touches cold water. The manga is about the same as the show. The books are more humorous than the original anime.


Sailor Moon Much better than the anime! This is a series that no one should go with out reading. In the manga Serena and Darian meet much sooner than in the show and they go throught alot more hardships with their relationship, but all and all the story goes faster, much more things happen for example the other scouts fall in love also. And this one actually ends...I don't think there is an end to the anime....?


SlamDunk Same as the anime except in book form, people may either chose to watch it or read it. Either was it's pretty good.


Tenchi Muyo/ No Need For Tenchi This is different from the show by somewhat alot. This mostly taks about the others such as Sasami. The anime mainly talks about Tenchi and the five women in his house and how he is out to find out stuff. In the Manga/comic it's alot more different because in the manga/comic it seems as thought everything has ended and they live in peace now and how things happpen. It's actually a very good series of books to read, their just basically small adventures.


Weiß Kreuz Same as the anime...I think
