hmmm, i suppose i just got a real good imagination, there were times in the manga that send chills down my spine..... like when naruto thinks sasuke is dead, and releases the kyuubi (SP?) in the manga he looked ****ing viscious and furious, which it failed to convey in the anime imo. I think it really does depend on your imagination though, if you want everything to be done for you the animation is great, but if you read the manga.... its just spectacular, your mind takes over and its all cool, music isnt needed to bring out emmotion in the manga,

----WARNING, MANGA SPOILER: look at when tsunade had them flashbacks about her brother, that was sad, and when naruto beat gaara you could feel a lot of empathy for gaara, and when naruto was getting wooped by kabuto, the tables turned and he used reasengan, it was awesome. END OF SPOILER------
I dunno, when i watch the anime, its just like any other anime ive seen, but the manga just kept the action and story coming, and it does convey emmotion. Heh, I am considerally baised anyway, because in my experience i've always prefered manga over and anime, but thats because TV programs dont involve the viewer enough, manga gets you involved and activates your imagination, if you dont like the manga because you havent got music and moving images, imo your not reading it right, in my head im constantly visualising, imaging people voices, picturing the scene etc.... You shouldnt be worrying about music and stuff, you should be imagining you are right there in the middle of all the action watching it all happen, and in a while you forget you are actually reading. I think im repeating myself, so i'll stop.........
BTW the pace of the anime is terrible, it was my friends that pointed it out, what happened to dbz happened to naruto, they stand around for hours saying a few words which you already knew they were going to say, its incredibly slow paced in that respect, but in the manga, you can make them gaps last how long you want, its not a problem then, and you can enjoy it to your taste
Edited spoiler to make it harder to read.
