Of course novels, they give a completely detailed description of situations, involving feelings and thought of the characters; also the novels allows more imagination, as it is a narration were one must imaginate the situations, in manga they just show it.

@Fehafare: I believe you chose one of the best pieces to start out.
FSN is a great VN if you can stomach the tons and TONS of infodumping the author pulls your through. Good luck!

@willyvereb: I am happy to hear that. I already read some volumes of the manga so it's a bit annyoing to hear the same things about the grail war again.

But i can live with it as it's really awesome.

I've read more manga. I've never been able to just discover a good novel outside of the Hobbit back in like 5th grade, nor have I really been interested in doing such. All of the ones I've read were super popular stuff that either my Dad or Stepmom suggested to me or Harry Potter, which the world and movies at large suggested to me. Back when I was more into manga, I was willing to invest the time to find titles I'd be interested in and I didn't mind giving new ones a shot. Because of that, I'd vote for manga.

Novels are better. The writers are capable of describing environments, situations, characters, feelings etc. by using words impressively with no need for pictures because the words paint a picture themselves. Manga on the other hand is different. If I'm in the mood for a really good story then I'll pick a novel but if I want the funner read then definitely manga.

Novels. Sometimes, the action scenes in manga are hard to follow.

depends I'd pick 1984 over any manga but manga is generally better and by that I mean more fun to read.
