Comfy Which one comes first, anime, (light) novel, or manga?

[Haruhi Suzumiya]

In most cases it would be the light novel, after which the manga comes out then the anime. Some examples would be Oregairu, Haruhi and the Monogatari series ,some light novels like the Zaregoto series get transformed directly into anime without getting a manga. Neon Genesis Evangelion is actually an original anime which didn't have a manga or light novel.
what do you prefer and what's the correct order in your oppinion, you read the manga first, watch the anime or read the LN?

Web novel and Manga, I got too lazy to watch anime.

I prefer content that is only in manga form since that means it's too based for digital media.

It's about a dude who gets gang raped constantly in prison so he starts learning martial arts to defend himself. This dude bites dicks off.

Gay literature in western prose written by anally inclined men and roughly translated to LN than adapted to anime and given a manga adaptation for the mainstream audience.

Depends, reading the Hunter x Hunter manga has been made kinda obsolete due to how well the 2011 anime adapted it. The Gintama manga also isn't as good as the anime, which even fully adapted the manga

The VAs are great, the fights are a lot better executed in the anime and the pacing is quicker. But only till 250, this is where the animation studio changed, they still did a solid job, but it's not nearly as good as when sunrise animated it. To sum up, Ep 3-250 anime is better, Ep250-367 manga is better especially because this is where the manga art peaked quality wise

truth right there. Although you could have an absolute shit show but if it’s edgy you could have a hit.

most anime have to pander to the lowest of the low. They have to make the MC a virgin, loser, maybe NEET to associate with the majority of the audience. Then use a plot device to transport MC into another world. Introduce a harem or a few girls that the fans will fight over who is best girl. Be careful not to give the MC too much personality. He needs to bland so the viewer can put himself in the shoes of the MC. Have your show filled with tropes and cliche but try to give them a small spin so the show can defend itself from criticism by saying we did it slightly different.

You just made yourself an anime.

I always try to read OG content first, but if the anime adaptation is very well recived like FMA Brotherhood , then I'll read the anime (I've viewed both)

Depends how much time I have on my hands tbh.
