Pokemon is actually both. The manga gives the foundation, and the anime expands on it with action and adventure. They complement each other and offer different ways to enjoy the Pokemon world.
I recommend "Unlimited Firepower Evolution". This book is a light novel, a fantasy novel. The setting of the story was virtual reality. The protagonist was faced with various choices, deciding whether to live or die, oppression or resistance. This novel was relatively new and might not be very famous, but he could give it a try. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
There are currently no animations or manga works for this novel. The novel was an online literary work. The author described the growth process of a concubine's daughter and the choices she made when facing family, love, and kinship. Although there were other similar works adapted into anime or manga, Poison of a Concubine's Daughter was still one of the representative works created by the author. There was no corresponding animation or manga released.
I don't have actual knowledge but I can look up information about anime and manga. According to my knowledge, the most popular anime recently is "Your Name." It was released in 2016 and directed by Makoto Shinkai. It tells the story of two teenagers who exchange identities due to mysterious forces and explore their own identities through mutual influence. This anime received high reviews and box office earnings worldwide.
I'm not an anime book award judging organization. My knowledge is limited to the text and data I've come into contact with. However, if you have any information about the anime and book awards, you can check the relevant websites or social media groups to learn more about the selection criteria and results.
The original manga recommendations are as follows:
1 Death Note: This is a very famous mystery comic about a genius high school student who finds a notebook that can kill and starts to use it to solve cases. This manga had a very strong sense of drama and tension, but it also had a lot of deep thinking and human nature exploration.
[2]" The Fullmetal Alchemist ": This is a classic Japanese manga that talks about the concept of equivalent exchange, namely the equivalent of giving and receiving, and the story of what happens when people pursue equivalent exchange. This manga had a very high level of philosophical depth and emotional level, as well as a lot of battle and adventure plots.
[3]" Brother Corpse ": This is a Chinese comic that tells the story of a zombie apocalypse. There were many complicated relationships and plots in this story, but there were also many humorous and ironic elements. It was a very popular manga that had been adapted into an animation and movie.
4. The Ghost Destroyer's Blade: This is a story about ghost hunting. It tells the story of a young man fighting to eliminate ghosts. This story had a lot of deep human thinking and character creation, as well as a lot of battle and adventure plots. It was a very popular manga that had been adapted into an animation and movie.
These are some of the original comics that I personally recommend. They are all of very high quality and touching, but they also have many interesting plots and characters. I hope you like them!
In many cases, the Boruto manga is ahead. The anime often takes time to adapt and animate the story from the manga, so the manga storyline moves faster.
