I gotta go with Anime.
I am a huge manga fan. I own... Likely 50 to 55 full volumes and quite a few of the anime I have finished I have looked into the manga afterwards to get a deeper understanding of the show. I read light novels galore. I think I own around 30 - 40 different books.
Several of them are completed series. As well as have played countless visual novels. I don't own any yet, I just can't justify spending 100 bucks on a visual book. Though I will support as much as I can with merchandise.
But if a show is done well, the anime I mean, then you can't beat it. The visual reference is excellent. Some shows even surpass the manga. When it comes to depth, a show can't get into a characters head as much, but it can be markedly more entertaining.
Usually I just look for a completely different experience altogether when I read a manga as opposed to watch an anime.
But anime wins without a doubt in my mind as it stands for me now.
That makes sense. I have no specific preference just a different taste for each one. I think of my self as a "Plot Hunter" as I enjoy good stories and developed characters and ideas.
As for my argument I don't have one. I like both very much and it all comes down to personal taste that people have.
