Have I been trolled again?

>>134865208
Unless you acknowledge something written down as literature, your perception works like a chair between the two and won't allow you to compare them.

Oh God, we already have /v/ infesting, please /lit/ go somewhere else, we have enough edginess as it is.

Manga is better because it has pictures

>>134865208
The mediums are rather different.

>>134865551
It was clearly a placeholder image you fucking sperg. Use your imagination, if you have one.

David Foster Wallace was brilliant. I thought /lit/ only liked "classical" literature?

Thank god I voluntarily spoiled myself that shitty movie yesterday, otherwise I'd be pissed off.
Well, still less than if I had payed a ticket to see a carbon copy of a new hope, actually.

litterally none of that happens.

Literature is obviously better than any manga or animu content wise but literature can't make CGDCT.

This isn't the best thread to ask this in but are there translations for Inio's Okazaki-kun? Found a Mandarake store near that's selling it for cheap.

Depends on your definition of literature, a lot of anime could probably beat the average "Best-seller Crime Drama of the Year!" novel.

Unless you're just referring to classics etc, in which case you'd be hard pressed.

An Infinite Jest manga/anime would be something though, it wouldn't work at all, but I'd like to see someone try.

You're lying and you know it.
Only two things of that script don't happen.

>>134865208
none of those are best anything

>>134867390
Cool. I already recognize it by the text alignment now.
