User blog comment:PurpleKat/Manga or anime?/@comment-10733658-20160203003119

Please do yourself the favor and read the manga. The anime is a very flawed product, attempting to condense 143 chapters into 24 episodes. It removed entirely story arcs, significantly altered characters, and really doesn't explain much of anything. You will be left with no answers, numerous things without context, and have a misunderstanding of some of the characters and their relationships/motivations.
