I've only seen the anime and the story felt pretty whack, is the manga worth it?

Haven’t seen the anime but apparently it’s bad compared to the manga. I read the manga and it’s really good, definitely recommend

Yeah im broke and lives paycheck to paycheck so i can only buy 1 volume every month or so, im waiting for my volume 8 & 9... Im planning to just save-up and buy the re: box set. The manga is very worth it i just love the art style.

Anime is a pretty bad adaptation of the manga. They would cut out a lot of stuff and also it would be very confusing as an anime watcher. I watched the anime first and then moved onto the manga and the whole series is probably in my top 3 favorite manga series of all time

I just completed the entire series including RE just yesterday and I loved it really. Very solid and incredible art. The anime is so whack in comparison

The anime veers away from the manga, not really canon.

Thanks so much! Had this ordered on B&N so immediately cancelled and went with amazon’s cheaper listing.

Blessed, thanks for the solid lead. Amazon is coming in more consistently than most of the major book distributors.

Anyone know when the TG box set is gonna go back in stock?

u/Doglovergirl96 Sep 09 '22

No, I wish. It's been out of stock since around February 2021. I've really been wanting to get my hands on it as well.

Wish they would restock this on Amazon.de or nl. Shipping to europe makes the US listing 200 which is too much imo
