For the sailor moon fans, a question for you: do you prefer Mamoru in the anime version or in the manga version?I prefer the manga version: without the tuxedo he remains the little wicked we all know and love for all the series, and not just for the first season. And he's much more powerful (for example he has powers like the "smoking bomb")

I must admit I really, really really hate anime version of Mamoru. He's so much worse than manga original. I think tv Mamoru is very cold torwards Usagi (desite what's been written above me:P) and he's to stiff. And in manga there are still those parts of plot when he does bad things but it feels less cliche. I do like manga version of Mamoru much^_^

Well, I'm re-watching anime series now (kickassanime has done dvd rps with english subs up to 35th episodes) and I reread manga as well:P Though I only on the first arc right now but I remember that manga Mamoru always seem more like a human to me. He was jealous when Haruka showed up and overal he seemed more concerned about Usagi that in anime where he was either braking up with her (for her own good-_-) or disapeared or seek or totally cold for Usagi what was makng his chara useless in my opinion:/

I don't remember the manga well (I've read it too many years ago) but I remember that in the Anime in the first serie he's very cold but in a cute way (a love-hate relationship), in the second he is mean to protect Usagi from danger and in theb others he's very sweet. In the manga I remember he's always a bit b@stard with her but I can be wrong

i didn't really read the manga because i had no easy access to it and i also prefer to watch the anime than the manga. (true for other animes) i do have one of Sailormoon R manga, i just forgot what volume is it. ^__^;;
anyway, at first i liked Mamoru because he's cool and all sorts. but as the anime went on, he wasn't so cool anymore. it seemed to me that it was always Usagi who had to do everything to save their love, save him and like, Mamoru was always powerless and sort of became a burden to Sailormoon. and sometimes i just think that he isn't that sweet and thoughtful to Usagi. ^__^;;
i guess if i had read the manga, i would have preferred the manga Mamoru over the anime Mamoru. ^__^

Yeah, I think you would have loved manga Mamoru. He remains cool like the first serie and he's more in charge of the relationship. I remember a comic in which Usagi says "I've dreamed that Mamoru was gentle with me and helped me with homeworks. It's only a dream" xD

I don't read manga, so I have no idea how Mamoru is depicted there. You can't find much manga in Romania, and I hate reading it on the screen, online...

I've read the manga version and I don't know what to think. The Mamoru of the manga is more powerful and has a strong personality, but the mamoru of the anime is gentler and sweeter... I don't know... maybe I'll keep both :D
