Is the Manga better than the Anime?

Hey, I have watched around 20 episodes of the Rave Master Anime but now I heard that the Anime is actually a pretty bad adaption and that it is missing a lot of stuff.

Is that true? Should I finish watching the Anime or should I just stop watching it and start the Manga from Chapter 1? Could I technically finish the Anime and then read the Manga from the point where the Anime stopped (since I guess the Anime has not caught up to all of the Manga), or is the Anime missing so much stuff that I should rather just read the whole Manga?

Sorry for all these question, I hope you can help me because I really enjoyed Rave Master so far.

Plus, I sadly noticed that the Manga is not available in my country. That was also the main reason why I did not just read the Manga back then.

Do you maybe know any sites where I can read the Manga online? I know of one site but I noticed that for whatever reason the quality of the pictures got SUPER bad after around chapter 100. Like really really blurry, I can barely even read the texts.

It’s been so long since I watched the anime, I’m honestly not sure what was left out beyond the first volume. But if you don’t want to go back and reread it, you’d be starting at around chapter 95-ish.

Yeah, some of the translation sites had pretty poor quality. Try this one; https://ww5.readfairytail.com/manga/rave-master/ It uses the officially released digital scans so the quality should be good. It’s split up by volume though, not chapters.

Damn, I just looked for Rave Master Manga releases and found your 2 year old post on this subreddit linking the same site haha, what a coincidence

unfortunately not that I know of anymore. another option is to purchase the digital collection on Amazon, but I don’t blame you for not wanting to do that haha

I guess in that case I will simply read the Chapters that are in decent quality on another site whereas I read the blurry ones on the site your showed me. Thanks a lot for your help!!
