Seeing how we're getting new CCS stuff let's have a fun debate! Which do you like better? The manga or the anime?
As a whole I enjoyed both the manga and the anime. Both have great stories and I liked that they're different from each other. The anime really doesn't have any filler. It keeps on track with its story. Even the two episodes of where Sakura didn't capture any cards had a purpose. The manga has beautiful artwork.
If I had to pick one over the other it would be the anime. First off I like that Syaoran played a stronger role. He actually captured the cards and was fleshed out a bit. We see his family. There was more focus on the cards. Despite it being an episodic anime each capturing of a card felt different. Sakura was always on her toes. Meling. I love her enough said.
As for the manga. I just mainly enjoyed looking at the artwork and the fluffy moments between Sakura and Syaoran. It focus way too much on the love theme rather than the plot. I hated that the first chapter was not about Sakura finding the book. It was a flashback. The ending was a bit meh to me. I'm saying why because if you're reading this topic then you have read and seen both versions.
I didn't like that Clow split himself. Eriol and Sakura's dad. It was just out of no where.
