There were many reasons for the difference between a novel and an adapted manga. The way novels and comics were created was different from the audience. Fictions were usually created independently by the author. The storyline and character characters needed to be conceived and created by the author himself. Therefore, the freedom of creation of the novel was higher and it was easier to be outstanding. The manga was usually adapted from a novel by the mangaka. He had to take into account the reader's reading habits, the expressiveness of the manga, and other factors. Therefore, the creation of the manga needed to be more detailed and precise. The plot and rhythm of a novel and a manga were also different. The plot of a novel is usually composed of multiple chapters. Each chapter has a different plot and theme. The reader can gradually delve into the story according to his own reading experience and understanding. The plot of a manga was usually linear. Each picture corresponded to an independent storyline, and the rhythm of the picture was relatively fast, which was more suitable for the reader's reading habits. The characters in novels and mangas were also different. The novel focused more on the character's inner world and character shaping. The author needed to dig deep into the character's personality, background, and emotions so that the reader could understand the character more empathetically. Manga, on the other hand, paid more attention to the appearance and actions of the characters. They could use exaggerated techniques and scenes to create the image of the characters. Therefore, the difference between a novel and an adapted manga was due to many aspects, including the way of creation, the audience, the plot and rhythm, the creation of characters, and so on.
