Definitely an old favorite of mine. I have a complete set of the manga on my bookshelf.

Been meaning to read or watch this for a while. Coloured version sounds interesting.
I looked it up a while back and turns the anime and manga are significantly different. From what I've gathered from others said:
Sometimes the anime would take the premise of a manga chapter and do something different, only adapting a few pages before going original.
The anime is more whack comedy. The manga is more romance.
The anime has more whacky storylines. The manga is more character-focused.
The anime ended with a movie that's well-received. The manga had a completely different ending.
One guy compared it to FullMetal Alchemist (2003) and FMA:B/manga.

So I've been trying to decide which to watch first. I get the impression I'd enjoy the manga more, depending on my current mood. But I'm also worried that maybe I'd enjoy I more overall with anime first, like idk if I'd have enjoyed FMA (2003) as much if I had watched it before Brotherhood.
